2017 was kind of a strange year. A mixed bag for a lot of people. Coming off of 2016, which most folks just wanted to forget, I had high hopes. But I have learned now that maybe that burst of greatness in one shot isn't going to pop up it's head and it's more of the long and winding road. I do enjoy the journey, though.
2017 was filled with a mixture of what we normally get out of life. The good and the bad. I started out optimistic (I am naturally optimistic) and felt the same disappointment and worry as everyone else. And then the year closed with a historic fire the likes of which my state hasn't seen in many a year. I felt like I went through something. Time will tell what feelings will spring out of my heart when remembering.
2017 is almost gone. Now is the time to mentally recharge. Mentally regain the momentum. To become optimistic again. I hope and pray for the world to continue on it's path to a better place. A better future. Now is the time to dream.
2018...I'm happy to see you.

The Breath Of Vader (Happy Birthday James Earl Jones, ICON!)
A celebrated actor of the stage and screen, the great James Earl Jones was born on January 17th, 1931. A distinguished thespian who has won a Tony and Golden Globe, he is respected and admired among his peers. He has appeared in many films, with "Conan The Barbarian" being among one of my favorite performances of his. Aside from playing ancient tyrants he can also play comedy, appearing in such classics as "Coming To America." And he can also play warm characters like the ones played in "Field Of Dreams" and "The Sandlot." However, he is best known, and will probably be forever known, as breathing life into one of the greatest cinematic villains of all time...the Sith Lord Darth Vader. It was his commanding, booming voice that truly brought the character to life. The character is rich, and has always looked cool with his sleek black part mechanical suit. But as those fans of Star Wars know, the man in the suit was David Prowse, who certainl
A Modern Man Of Many Faces (Happy Birthday Tim Curry!)
The sign of a truly great actor is his ability to BECOME the character. Slide into it as the actor or actress disappears and the character becomes real. Few actors have achieved the kind of disappearing acts of a true actor that the great Tim Curry has. He rose to fame as the transvestite mad scientist Frank-N-Furter in the 1975 cult classic "Rock Horror Picture Show." Aside from theater roles like "Hair," he also starred in supporting roles in the film "Annie." My sister was a massive fan of that film and I used to watch it often when I was a kid. Many a great performer appeared in that film, and Mr. Curry held his own with legendary talent. Of course, he would become legendary himself in the years to come. He would have a hellish time portraying Darkness in the 1985 film "Legend." This is perhaps the ultimate 'disappear into the character' role as he was simply unrecognizable in the extreme make-up. The film is still a curious fa
A True Giant Of Fandom (Happy Birthday Warwick Davis!)
In 1983 I saw (what I thought was at the time the end of The Skywalker Saga) "Star Wars Episode VI: Return Of The Jedi" in theaters and my life was changed forever. However, an actor that I would later come to respect and love was in this film...and I didn't know it. To be fair, no one would have known little Warwick Davis in an Ewok suit, even if he was famous. He was originally meant to be an extra in the film, but when Star Wars icon and R2D2 actor Kenny Baker fell ill, George Lucas hand picked Warwick to be the great Ewok Wicket, seeing how he carried himself as an Ewok. Thus his great career as a fan favorite was born. He would later reprise the roll of Wicket in the television films "Caravan Of Courage: An Ewok Adventure" and "Ewoks: The Battle for Endor." Five years later he would appear in one of my all-time favorite '80's fantasy films "Willow." I absolutely loved this film, having been a fan of circles & rings, dragons
