Leprechaun: It’s Out of the Crate
Much like Garth, I’m terrified of leprechauns. Luckily, the charming Jackpot (of Gold) Records is on hand to give me and others like me some aversion therapy this St. Patrick’s Day. Let us gather and watch Leprechaun, in which Jennifer Aniston gets the run-around from a little dude in a green suit! From the press […]

A cautionary tale about terrible tween movies.
Questioning Librarians
I said text your librarian, not sext. God, I love the Multnomah County Library. First you can download music from ’em. Now you can quiz the holy hell outta of ’em via text!

PIFF After Dark Starts Tonight with Rubber

There’s also […]
Let’s Play What’s Your Derby Name!
In my spare time I like to come up with theoretical roller derby names (yeah… that is what I do in my spare time). But no one wants to be a big ol’ copy cat, right? So I check my names against the international roller derby roster to see if they’re already taken. Like my […]
