Your Halloween Costume Better Be Awesome, Kid
2009-10-30 13:25:00 Photo: MorguefileI can't stress how much I like Halloween. What a totally great holiday. When you're young it brings you oodles of candy -- the intake of which your parents sooner or later become powerless to control -- and when you grow up it brings oodles of women dressed in outfits so sexually absurd, you consistently find yourself wondering if you're at a Halloween party or the set of a low-budget pornographic film. I even like handing out candy to all the little kids who come to my door (except for the stupid little girls who live down the street; they can go to hell). This year, though, I've decided to apply a merit-based rating system to decide how...

Sam Vallen: awesome legato wide intervals
2009-10-27 12:09:00 I just love this video, moving you away from the standard arpeggio sweeps and really tricking the ear. Sam Vallen says: Welcome to my first online lesson, if you enjoy this one check back regularly for more! Guitarists seem to get stuck in ruts working on triplet and quaver based patterns.

tMF TALKBACK: Leonardo DiCaprio and Joseph Gordon-Levitt - Two awesome acto
2009-10-06 06:05:00 If you're going to ask me which movie of Leonardo DiCaprio I remember the most, I'd say - 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape', and I'll have to add that even though Johnny Depp headlines the flick, both him and Leo stood out with their heartfelt performances- with DiCaprio earning an Oscar nom for his role. While I am inclined to say that Leo's role appears to be the more challenging, the acclaim he received stems from the fact that he really put himself into Arnie and he became that character. - - -- - - In putting some more perspective, let's see how the Lasse Hallstrom's movie fared with the critics - In 'Grape' Chicago Tribune's Roger Ebert said: The special quality of "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" is not its oddness, however, but its warmth. Johnny Depp, as Gilbert, has specialized in playing outsiders ("Edward Scissorhands," "Benny and Joon"), and here he brings a quiet, gentle sweetness that suffuses the whole film. Leonardo DiCaprio, who plays Arnie, the r...

Oh — and while we’re on the subject — there is absolutely no truth to the rumour that the TV Addict is not attending this year’s Emmy Ceremony as a result of some totally unsubstantiated court-ordered restraining order that doesn’t allow us within fifty feet of the actor.

Michigan Ave. Oprah Taping, awesome or annoying?
2009-09-07 05:55:00 Chicagoans have known for about a week now that the Oprah show will be taping in the middle of Michigan Ave. on Tuesday. This taping will require street closings and reroutes for Chicagoans for about 2 and a half days. I have encountered many individuals who have mixed feelings about this. Some people believe its not fair to force people to change their daily routine for a private event. I understand it will be harder to physically get to offices located on Michigan Ave., travel times will be longer in the city and there will be a mass amount of people in the area trying to be a part of this season opener. However, you can use this as an...

Scott Richmond was Awesome Last Night
2009-06-18 19:06:00 What a great start by Richmond last night! I’ve been hard on the kid so far but he was dynamite last night. I went up and down his Pitch F/X data from last night and recent starts and outside of the curve weren’t any tangible differences with his other offerings (velocity and movement wise, although he’s toned down his change). Here are some Pitch F/X vertical charts lifted from Brooks Baseball. Below 0 represents sink, drop, etc. I’m using these charts because sometimes the Pitch F/X data incorrectly lists curveballs as sliders. What we’re after is looking at pitches that are below 0 on the vertical chart. These usually represent his curve. 6/6 Start 6/12 Relief (fill in for Doc) 6/17 Start (11 K Performance) As we can see he rarely cracked out his curve in the 6/6 and 6/12 games. Last night his curve was filthy. I’ll report back after his next start to see if he maintains a higher curveball percentage. Umm I don’t know how to put this w...

Idaho's always had that effect on me. Just mention Idaho and everything seems a little less exciting.

When I listen to this song, I can't actually remember how the lyrics to Lou Reed's version went.And while I can't remember how the lyrics to the original went while I listen to Albert's version, I can picture me and a dog, maybe a medium-sized dog, walking along a train tracks. Well, I'm walking, and the dog is running and bouncing and jumping, and I'm throwing sticks for it, and we're also walking towards the sunset. Or maybe it's the sunrise. Is that weird?
