Danny DeVito Chats with James L. Brooks at SF Sketchfest

If you’re like me, then you are probably kicking yourself for missing over half of the 10th Annual SF Sketchfest (What?! A huge chunk of the Community cast was here?!) If you’re a fan of It’s Always Sunny Philadelphia, As Good As it Gets, Taxi, Terms of Endearment, or War of the Roses then you...

My First Half Marathon

I did it. I popped my half-marathon cherry. On Sunday, I, along with my running buddies, braved the rain and participated in the US Half in San Francisco. I ended up running the marathon in 2 hours and 1 minute, with a pace of 9:16. I was the 840th person to cross the finish line...

Are you ready for a good ol ‘Ho-down’?

No, it’s not that kind of ho-down (it’s not that kind of ho-down either). On Thursday December 3rd, San Francisco will play host to the Handmade Ho Down, a DIY fest with an Etsy edge (who just so happens to be a sponsor). The event will shopping event will have plenty of wares like clothing,...

Zines are the O.G. blog

In short, zines are the middle finger to glossies. They were all the rage during the ’60s and well into the punk-infused ’70s. Aesthetically, they were rough around the edges and showed every Xerox flaw with pride. Zines were a DIY piece of counterculture and each of them honed in on a particular niche. From...

Hot Topic: a Twilight tween’s utopia

The leather cuffs, novelty tees and Emo charm of the Goth-lite retail chain, Hot Topic made way for the edgy sepia-toned warmth of New Moon stars Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz before the frenzied Q&A in the Stonestown Galleria parking lot on Monday night (yes, I am doing my posts a little out of order)....

Can ‘New Moon’ increase ‘Team Jacob’ membership?

As a member of the Cullen family in New Moon, you’d think Kellan Lutz (who plays strong boy vampire Emmett) would be in support of his on-screen bro, Edward (Robert Pattinson) – but on Monday night at Stonestown, Mr. Lutz had an interesting opinion about the whole Team Jacob vs. Team Edward debate. Kellan certainly...

‘New Moon’ star Kellan Lutz shows us his six pack

Well, he kind of showed us his six-pack. Tonight, stars of New Moon, Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz were welcomed by throes of “Twi-hard” fans at Stonestown Galleria in San Francisco.

A couple of words with Bryan Batt

Underwear models. That was the main focus of my conversation with Bryan Batt, the gentleman who portrays the not-so-ambiguously gay Salvatore Romano on Mad Men. Bryan Batt as Salvatore in Mad Men Okay, underwear models weren’t really the main focus. But it was mentioned about five or six times. Last week, while at Macy’s Passport,...
