The Guinness Storehouse in Dublin, Ireland, with a friendly reminder.

Slainte!  Today, March 17, is a very special day for those with my particular bloodline, as it’s St. Patrick’s Day and the Guinness will flow freely at every pub with an O’Something in the title, and our non-Irish friends are more than welcome to join us in the celebrating of all things Irish, the wearing of the green, and the munching of the corned beef.  Not that you need an excuse to enjoy a fine pint of Irish stout, mind you, but it never hurts.

In the spirit of the day, I thought I’d share with you guys my favorite band, the Celtic punk godfathers (and godmother) Flogging Molly, who will no doubt be partying tonight while taking a break from their annual Green 17 tour.  Just in case you needed a little help getting into the Irish spirit this morning before work, or just in case you’ll want something to fire you up for celebrations after work.

Cheers, all.  Make sure you find a designated driver if you party tonight, this weekend, or pretty much every time you party.

It seems like only a few years ago that Sylvester Stallone was mostly forgotten.  That seems to be changing in a hurry, as the aging action star has revitalized his career with a new hit franchise and revivals of his old familiar franchises.  Rambo came back, Rocky came back, and now it looks like Rocky’s […]

It’s been a long time since Bethesda Softworks put out their last game, and that time has only strengthened the anticipation of fans eagerly awaiting their next property.  Like most studios, Bethesda has their fans, and those fans are devoted due to the high quality of Bethesda’s games.  It seems that every Bethesda game is […]

James Bond just cannot be stopped, except perhaps by himself.  Studio struggles almost killed Skyfall, but the movie turned out to be a huge hit when it was finished and audiences demanded more, as they have over 24 movies by now.  The rumored 24th Bond movie is making its first appearances online, and it’s pretty […]

If you don’t like super hero movies, that’s your business.  But if you don’t like Marvel movies?  Well, I’m not sure what I can do for you.  The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been spectacular movie-going fun, and even the lesser Marvel films are as good as anything of that type of entertainment that’s ever been […]
