Coincidentally, someone asked me what “getting railroaded” meant. Let me put it this way, train rails are single tracks.

I’m sure that the Batman theme song circa Adam West is currently playing in your head (should you be an old foggy like myself) and I won’t blame you-retrotastic styling, curvy bodywork complete with wind busting tailfin it does bare some resemblence to the campy Caped Crusader’s vehicle of choice but what you’re looking at […]

Steve Buscemi to me is like one of those Christopher Walken types. I hate to make the comparison but men like him and Walken usually play varied roles and they invariably share one commonality- they make it their own. In fact, their signature styles are what makes them great fodder for comedic impersonators and […]
