Media Update: Burn After Reading, Smart People, Jamming/Bob Marley, Warhammer: Battle March,
Just another Media Update from the Boogieman to discuss what I'm currently watching, reading, playing or listening to...

Sore Necks and the Hatred of Sarah Palin...
- About a week and a half ago I completely jacked up my neck. I have no idea how I did it. I woke up Friday morning and felt fine. I walked the dog, ate my frosted flakes and got in the shower. When I got out, I couldn't turn my head in either direction. It was completely frozen, kind of like when you sleep on it wrong, which I've done before. I ( Read more... ) -

The Multiverse and Modal Realism
Before I even get started on this, let me fire off the disclaimer that I am not saying that I necesarily believe in alternate realities, parallel dimensions or any kind of transdimentional shifting of the conciousness. I am merely entertaining the notion that however improbable, anything is possible ( Read more... ) -
New Suit, New Doctor, and the Dark Knight...
- I have my cousin's wedding in two weeks which should be pretty fun. For those not in the know, my cousin is getting married to James, one of my college fraternity brothers who moved back to Connecticut after he graduated. Just one of those funky "It's a Small World" coincidences. But I digress ( Read more... )
