The Harpy

Generally when we say harpy, we’re referring to, as Random House Dictionary states, “a scolding, nagging, bad-tempered woman; shrew, or a greedy, predatory person.” Perhaps it’s that innate fear or repulsion that leads to so much trouble when trying to learn about the mythological creature the harpy.

Yeah, What He Said

BBC America cancelled their world news broadcast week day mornings and so this past week I’ve been left floundering around trying to figure out what morning news broadcast to watch to fill the void. So far I’ve tried “Morning Joe” on MSNBC and CNN’s “American Morning”. All I can say for these is that I REALLY miss my BBC World News. Anyway, after a week of trying these shows I have to say, I really agree with this guy.

Passover Fun!

It’s that Passover time of year again. Like most very bad Jews, I tend to celebrate with Cosmopolitans and questionably kosher cuisine. The important thing is that I gather with friends and family to share the story of the Jewish people. (Even more important is having fun.) For those of you who missed the animated film “The Prince of Egypt”, or find the phrase, we tell the story of Exodus confusing, let me drop a little knowledge on you.

The End is Near!

It’s true. The awesome Disinformation Company gave me a copy of their documentary “2012: Science or Superstition” to review. I’m very excited, not only is this the first DVD I’ve ever reviewed, but it came from the folks at Disinfo.com, AND I’m interested in the subject matter. Obviously the end times are upon us.
