I feel like playing a game today. Have you ever played “Marry, F*ck or Kill”? The rules are simple. I will give you three people to choose from. You must choose one who you would spend the rest of you life with, one you would have a freaky-monkey one-night stand with, and one who you [...]

I’ve never been much of a trekkie. Sure, I’ve seen most of the shows and movies, but I never really made a huge effort to keep up. Yesterday, I went to see J.J. Abram’s Star Trek. It’s a really, really good movie and may make a full-fledged Trekkie out of me yet, although I want [...]
