Best of Music in 2006: Epinions Music Writers Help Me
This was originally published on Epinions.com.
I won’t admit to listening to everything, so my list is going to be missing some albums that others found fantastic but simply didn’t find my iPod.
But from what I’ve heard this year, this is the best of it, and because there are so many good writers in the Epinions.com [...]
Running Is For Dummies: Week 4
3.5 miles. I can’t believe I ran 3.5 miles in one shot. I’ve done a lot of running in my time, but I’m not sure I’ve ever done 3.5 miles at one time. I remember running until I cramped up in high school at basketball practice. I’d be so tired that I would just come [...]
Hometown Sports Takes #7: Barry Zito
When I heard that the Giants were in the running to sign Barry Zito, I didn’t even bother getting excited. The Giants never pay big for pitchers. It really doesn’t make sense to anyway. Unless you’re going to sign a definite stud like Roger Clemens in his prime. It’s much more productive to sign position [...]

Running Is For Dummies: Week 3
I woke up Monday morning feeling a bit sick. I’m rarely sick as I’m the type to always load up on vitamin C. And even in being sick, I wasn’t as sick as I probably could’ve been for the same reason. But it did set me back a bit in my running as a metaphor [...]
Sylvester Stallone’s: Rocky Balboa – Finally, There’s Finality
This review was originally published on Epinions.com.
Let’s do something here. Let’s pretend that Rocky V didn’t even happen. It doesn’t even exist. Because if that were the case, Rocky Balboa is the perfect way to end the Rocky franchise. Even with the fifth movie being a blunted reality, it’s still a great way to end [...]
Will Smith’s The Pursuit of Happyness: Can’t Knock The Hustle
This review was originally posted on Epinions.com.
This film is very much what the title says it is. Will Smith plays Chris Gardner, whose life is all about balancing survival with his own pursuit of happiness. He’s an intelligent man who is either making all the wrong decisions, or just has some of the worst luck [...]
Sylvester Stallone’s Rocky V: Back In The Hood
This was originally published on Epinions.com.
When Rocky V came out in 1990, almost no one was interested except for Rocky fans. It had been five years since Rocky IV, and I think most people thought Rocky IV was the last one. But Sylvester Stallone wanted to finish off his series by going back home. And [...]
Running Is For Dummies: Week 2
After being in class all last weekend from sun up to sun down, I was really tired early this week. My current schedule is to run on Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday. On Tuesday and Wednesday I do weights and Thursday and Saturday is a second cardio day except that I don’t run. I bike it. [...]
