Verve
LC Messinger - "Wasted Ladies"
By

What the hell is interactive fiction? That's a damn good question, and one that I'm sure all three of my readers are dying to have answered! Effectively the oldest genre of computer game in existence, interactive fiction was pioneered in the mid-1970s on mainframe computers, before what one typically thinks as graphics even existed.
Man of the Year
By
*** out of ***** Robin Williams is an actor who can deftly play both serious and comedic roles. His greatest performances, however, have always been those that allowed his humor and his acting chops to coexist.

Movie Graveyard: A monthly look at classic and underrated films
By
For Mel Brooks, nothing is sacred. From musicals to westerns to the films of Alfred Hitchcock, Brooks has made a career out of spoofing anything and everything.

Heartburning Fajitas

I get heartburn bad, really bad. This isn't your sissy "I need a Tums" indigestion, but the go-see-your-doctor-and-find-out-what-you-have-to-give-up-to-make-it-stop-before-it-kills-you heartburn. I think it started my first year of college when I was working four different part-time jobs and trying to carry 15 credits.
