It happens without my will! This category, created for news and stuff like that, makes the obituaries more than anything else. I'll try to change that in the future. I know Paul Walker before the movie that made him famous, The Fast and the Furious. I noticed him in The Skulls, in 2000 and only after that, in the movie co stared with Vin Diesel. He was good, but not extraordinary. Very good for the roles he acted. He was good looking as well. On November 30, 2013, Walker and a 38 years old … [Read more...]
Under Attack
America is under an attack to the good taste, but what I say, not only America, the whole world is under the same attack. It seems Jay-Z and Beyoncé are everywhere, as Rihanna and Chris Brown are also everyday in the news. The "music" created by Jay-Z is of a value known by himself. If the next Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart would appear, people won't be able to recognize him, nor to appreciate him. People call "genius" trash like this: But I know that if I stay stunting All these girls only gon' … [Read more...]
Pinterest Tricks
Looking for a Pin It button, I found Chykalophia Design. You notice the button right after the post title and somehow asymmetrically. Why do I have it there, and not aligned with the others? Because it was created by Ari Krzyzek from the above mentioned site, and is a combination between the pinmarklet (a bookmarking device one put on the browser's bookmarking toolbar) and a png button. It's not a plugin, it is a piece of code which let you to choose the picture to pin, every time. There … [Read more...]
The Girl Next Door
Wonderful teenage movie, made in 2004 by Luke Greenfield (nothing quite memorable to this one), after a screenplay by Stuart Blumberg (Thanks for Sharing and The Kids Are All Right, both after this one), David Wagner (Van Wilder), and Brent Goldberg (Van Wilder and Saving Ryan's Privates - I liked the title of this last one, otherwise, I never heard of it as a movie). [all pics otherwise differently credited, are from imdb] Ambitious High School senior Matthew (Emile Hirsch), dreams of … [Read more...]
Wet Shaving Update
As an update to my post The Art of Wet Shaving, I wanted to show you a video on double edged shaving blades making. This following one was filmed at Croma factory in Germany. As I said in the mentioned post, the form of the blade as we know now, came in 1904. Gillette's 1904 patents gave it the power to block entry into the installed base of handles that it would create. While other firms could and did enter the replaceable-blade market with their own handles and blades, no one could … [Read more...]
Borat
Borat is one of the most hilarious films I've ever seen, and it's on my favorites list. I'm not sure if this movie made Sacha Baron Cohen one of the most popular actors through the American public. It is a metaphor, it is ironic, it is brilliant. The mockumentary concept is not new, but was triple refined in this case. Borat is one of the best comedies ever made, it made my Best 20, and not only. I'm afraid, it wasn't wholly appreciated in USA and in Romania. You see, the Romanians are very … [Read more...]
