Changing Channels

People have a clever relatively new expression they are throwing around these days. They call it a “come to Jesus moment”. They think it’s clever, but when you think about it, it’s very disrespectful to what Christ does. Christians believe a come to Jesus moment is when someone goes to Him and He accepts them…

I don’t stay up late to watch the late night talk shows. Only rarely do I even tape them to watch them in the morning. But I am here for you guys, though, the people who are even more fanatical than I am about TV. Although in a recent blog I indicated Jimmy Kimmel and…

I have to admit I missed or avoided most of the Larry the Cable Guy phenomenon of recent years, except of course for his famous phrase: “Git-R-Done”. Larry deserves credit for being more than just a one-trick pony though, racking up five gold-certified records and voicing a main character in the smash-hit movie Cars. I…

What would we do without the NFL? That question won’t have to be answered since the league and its players worked out an agreement to save the season. Not only did DirecTV breathe a huge sigh of relief, so did ESPN and its gaggle of analysts who would otherwise have little to gab about. It…

Say what you will about Glenn Beck, but the man was a television star and personality unlike few others. Love him or hate him, Beck could make you laugh or cry, in the same hour. Who else on TV had a chalkboard that he frantically wrote on, either? Well, Beck and his chalkboard and emotional…

Staples office supply company made a shrewd move to include ‘Manny’ in its latest ads. No, not the surly ex-baseball slugger Manny Ramirez or the possibly overexposed boxing great Manny Pacquiao. Manny, the youngster much like an adult on Modern Family, whose real name is Rico Rodriguez, stars in a funny Staples ad that reminds…

The judge calling for a return of Casey Anthony to Orlando to possibly serve probation on a previous check fraud case is re-opening a can of worms. Anthony, already safely out of the state following a recent not-guilty finding in the death of her daughter Caylee, should not be subjected to a return to the…

With 100° temperatures burning up most of the country it may seem like an odd time to talk about the NHL. But I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to praise Mike ‘Doc’ Emrick, the outstanding broadcaster elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame the other day. While Emrick does great work on nationally broadcast games,…

No one does more corny puns than me. One group of people does, however: the advertising firms for American products. Sonic, a hamburger chain throughout the U.S. and a half-hour worthwhile drive for me, recently did a take-off on America’s You Can Do Magic. “This is how you Sonic … where you can get cheesy…

Mitch Williams performs similarly in his role as an analyst on the MLB Network as he did as a reliever in the big leagues. He just lets fly. The ex-MLB/Phillies closer is most famous for allowing Joe Carter’s bomb for the Blue Jays in the World Series. It should be remembered Williams was one of…
