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,...
Dino-Ray goes WILD on TV!
On Friday, I filmed a TV segment with CBS Bay Sunday and I was all sorts of vomit-inducing nervous. My head is quite shiny I hate seeing myself on camera and I am sure a lot of other people do too. But I thought this would be a great opportunity to not only get my...

Too tired to blog…but not too tired to name drop
Even though my eyes are heavy and I have a TV spot to film early in the morning (more on that later), I insist on blogging. That is my dedication. That is what separates me from sane people. Its what makes me an obsessive moron. I just got back from Macy’s Passport and I was...
Asian pop culture tally as of August 17, 2009
When I did my interview with Margaret Cho for Hyphen Magazine (yes, this is a shameless name drop) I asked her about the state of Asian Americans in entertainment and she answered… There’s a great crop of (Asian American) talent. There are a couple of more Asian faces here and there – that is great....

Park Chan Wook has an irresistible ‘Thirst’
If you’re expecting to see some angsty teen vampire love a la Edward Cullen or some racy vampiric hotness a la Bill Compton and Sookie in Park Chan Wook’s new film Thirst, the you might get more than you bargained for. In fact, you might get all that lovelorn raciness, but with a lot more...
I got love for ‘I Love You, Man’
Jason Segel (left) and Paul Rudd have a bromance of the ages in “I Love You, Man.” Photo credit: Comingsoon.net Webinar. Vaycay. Momversation. These are all slang terms that should be eliminated from the English language (click here for more terms). Bromance, along with the phrase, “bromantic comedy” was about to be added to my...
Current Obsession: Watchmen
Do I even need to explain why this is my current obsession? I just saw a screening of it last night and it devoured me. Meaning, I was enthralled and haven’t been that involved in a comic book-to-film adaptation since The Dark Knight – actually I felt more involved and seduced by these characters. My...
I have been neglecting you…
As of late, I have been focusing all my energy on my Examiner.com blog and therefore I haven’t been posting to this one a lot and I apologize to you, my reader. But mostly, I apologize to my blog. I haven’t been feeding it, and like a pet, it is starving. It needs my love....
An ‘I told you so’ moment…
Okay, this isn’t really an “I told you so” moment, it’s more of a “I interviewed a famous guy before he was nominated for his first Oscar” moment. Yes, I am talking about Michael Shannon from Revolutionary Road. When the noms were announced this week I was NOT surprised that Shannon got the nod for...
Fashion Week or bust?
It looks like New York Fashion Week next month is getting more and more out of reach for me – mainly because I can’t afford it and finding someone to sponsor me from my freelance gigs is like trying to get a stripper to stop wearing clear heels. Hopefully, something will pan out soon…I’ve been...
Movies that I have watched…
…most likely before you. Yes, that is quite braggy of me, but it is one of the perks of being “press.” If you are rolling your eyes – just think of it this way: perks don’t pay the bills. They just pay the creative soul of inspiration. Was that quote lame enough for you? Anyways,...
