While recently walking through the historic streets of Warren, Rhode Island (looking like a perfect small-town Christmas story), one couldn’t help but notice the newest edition to the antique and cafe storefronts that dot the landscape. Podsnappery is an eclectic collection of vintage artifacts mixed with new fashion accessories that look like they came out of a mid century boutique. The inventory evolves as it’s sold, but the decor remains consistently curated by it’s owners (Dave and Tori Caetano, he of Sasquatch and The Sick A Billys fame) to reflect their passion for all things cool and kitschy. "The Interview" has been purchased or rented more than 2 million times, Sony Pictures Entertainment said Sunday, making it the studio's highest-selling online movie of all time. Sony said the controversial move, which was made available on Christmas Eve, had netted more than $15 million as of Saturday.

Now, while we can't change our names (well, yes, we kind of can), we can try to limit the exposure to ridicule our names induce. Well, unfortunately these two can't run too far from their namesakes -- at least not for more than 100 yards at a time! See this week's funny picture below!

I am the type of guy who roots for the bad guy in a movie. Christmas movies especially. Come on tell the truth deep down inside you just wished one time, just once you'd see a magical special never before seen edition of Home Alone where Kevin McCallister is captured and his house robbed. Perhaps a rare screening of Elf in which Buddy is arrested, and committed for believing he's an elf. Whether you'd like to admit it or not you do have an evil side. We all do. Even in this season. Some more than most. In fact I find Ebenezer Scrooge to be a role model for the modern work force. While you might call some guy a jackass (and not the kind that were in any mangers in Bethlehem) in traffic on the way home. For your evilest most intimate thoughts my gift to you on this holiday season. The Top 5 Christmas Villains. Dan Martin

It’s that time of year again: Christmas. Love it or hate it, these 5 movies are the end all be all of the season. Weather you revile in the warmth of good cheer, or totally Grinch out, these 5 movies will make you forget the absurd amount of money you just spent, and maybe, just maybe, will make your heart grow 3 sizes. Tis the Season! |
