Subtle Bluntness

Well, it’s been a week, but I’m finally getting around to writing up my Evil Dead the musical experience.  It was a blast.  I had a great time. There you go, musical reviewed. Wait, you wanted more than just a three-sentence paragraph?  Jeez, you people are picky when it comes to your free entertainment, aren’t [...]

October is the best month of the year, but don’t take my word for it. Just ask Big Daddy Drew from Deadspin: It’s October today! OCTOBER! WOOHOO!!! The greatest month of all, dammit. I wish every month were October. That means YOU, August. What are you fucking good for? You just sit there, useless as [...]

As some of you know, I have a lot of writing jobs.  Pretty much everywhere I post these days has some sort of blog advertisement, except for this site.  Not anymore.  I’ve managed to secure myself a sponsor for Subtle Bluntness, and here’s their commercial. Actually, that’s not my sponsor.  I don’t have one.  But [...]

I wrote a nice little post about the Great Flood of 2009, in which Louisville received a crazy amount of rainfall in a short time, over at PopFi.  I included some handy dandy cellular phone camera pictures of the raging flood waters as they drowned various cars, but for space purposes I chopped the images [...]

“Hey Ron, are you ever going to post something for Feel Good Friday that isn’t ska?” No, and fuck you for asking, dicktard.  Ska is the best music for feeling good that has ever been invented.  It’s the musical equivalent of Prozac. Lately, I’ve been listening to a lot of Pandora.  The other day I [...]

Sometimes you just have to say fuck the blues and dance.  So, “Fuck the blues and dance.”  In this case, I guess it’s more like “Fuck the blues and jig.” Author’s note:  I’ve seen these guys twice at the Warped Tour, and once in an official concert.  They never fail to absolutely destroy every other [...]

Sometimes it feels like the only reason the world kicks you in the balls is so that, while you’re down on the ground cradling your fractured children, it can rear back and plant a boot right in your teeth. It’s been a rotten rat-fucking week for your boy. I’m not feeling well, I’ve gotten a [...]

This is kind of a melancholy FGF, because this is my favorite local band, I’ve seen them like 20 times, and their last show is September 13th. It’s sad when things like this happen, but at least I’ll know to get down to Headliners and catch their last performance, no matter what. (They played on [...]

Here’s this week’s box office report, complete with bragging about how I was right about Kung Fu Panda winning and how massive Sex and the City’s second week drop was compared to, uh, every other movie. Last week I got a chance to see Iron Man and Indy IV, and I was very impressed by [...]

Well, I stayed home from Day Job Friday, because I felt like a plate of fried turds ‘n’ spray-cheese. Another good reason was the upcoming white apocalypse we were to suffer at the hands of a premenstrual Mother Nature. That’s right, she was playing ragtime music and decided to give us more than the cold [...]
