KMAG hits 14,000 songs!
Woo hoo! Only four years behind the pace I set for expanding the stream’s library or content but still, it’s quite a landmark from the day I started from just 2000 off the top of my head. I know most … Continue reading
Welcome November 2017
As I peek out briefly from my Stranger Things 2-hole, I’m halfway through it, NO SPOILERS!!!…I wanted to drop a less depressing post to welcome you all to the home stretch of a crappy year. Well, crappy for the world since the … Continue reading
Welcome October 2017!
Normally I would had artwork to go with the theme of Italian Heritage or Pizza, but in light of Stranger Things returning to Netflix for its second season, I made it the header with the show’s typeface. You check out the cool … Continue reading
This month’s header is about education/school
September is often the month we think of as “Back To School.” I’ve always wondered why because I grew up in the Midwest and we started during the last week of August with a three-day weekend (Labor Day) to take … Continue reading
OK, I’m working my way back in
And not too late since I think I just missed the 12th anniversary of my site. I had to get through some fatigue, ennui, annoyance and pre-occupation with the world around me. Besides, I’m researching stuff to get my life … Continue reading

Let’s hear it for Wonder Woman
Technically, Diana’s 75th birthday was last year because her comic book debut was 1941 but let’s just say it took a while for comics to get distributed plus DC is doing all the cool stuff this June. She’s also a … Continue reading
May is traditionally Summer Movie Season’s start!
Let’s hear it for PhotoFunia again! I thought this art was frickin’ awesome because May has been the West’s traditional kickoff month off the Summer Movie Season since like forever. Well, I’ll go out on a limb and say 1975 … Continue reading
On Vacation!
Finally! This got put off last year for work reasons and now we’re underway! We may actually have two vacations this year to make up for the crappiness of 2016. What wonders will we encounter in Las Vegas? No idea … Continue reading
This month’s header (April 2017)
Going with an Eighties look thanks to PhotoFunia. No particular reason though. I just thought it was impressive. A bit heavier on detail than Patrick Nagel’s work.
“I’m back baby!” – Bender Rodriguez
Took a big stretch of time off from writing on the site. I wanted to contemplate a couple losses, namely Loren, and I had been on a winning streak with other things. Balance, life often needs it. Then you an … Continue reading

Another header from Photofunia
I forgot to mention the site being responsible for last month’s header. For February, the best thing they had to celebrate Valentine’s Day (formerly Lupercalia) was a pair of rusted padlocks, something people have for years in Paris’ Pont des … Continue reading
Final Star Trek header for the anniversary
The last televised version of Star Trek, Enterprise gets an unfair shake. Despite it being filled with continuity holes unlike all the other shows, I felt Captain Archer and the crew really got rolling some time in the second season. The whole space … Continue reading
It’s gonna’ be another shitty four years
I often try to keep politics off my site but…Jeez Louise, the American people never cease to amaze me in their stupidity. We’ve endured a B-movie star who almost started a couple nuclear wars, then a sociopathic fratboy who did … Continue reading
Five hundred (genuine) comments!
Picayune moving to the blog format has been a mixed bag. The upside is the immediacy for posting new stories/reviews/whatever. The downside has been not much conversation has happened. Well, if I had the old-fashioned message boards, maybe it would take … Continue reading →
