Rise of the Olympians
Mount Olympus has grown dark and decrepit. Black dead-looking vines grow all over the walls. Typhon slithers through the halls and enters the main hall. Thanatos sit upon his throne with his arm resting on the arm of the chair and his fist under his chin, as though holding his head up. His pointer finger on his left hand taps on the other arm of the throne. Typhon stops a few feet in front of Thanatos and bows.

What if Season 13 of RPDR was the 1st All-Stars Season?
Recently, I started watching America's Next Top Model (again), which reminded me that the biggest reality model competition (consisting of 24 Cycles), had only ONE All-Stars Season! Cycle 17 of ANTM, featured the 14 most popular participants of the show, up to that point.

Quentin Tarantino Will Novelize His Movie “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood”
Filmmaker Quentin Tarantino recently announced that he would write a novel based on his Oscar-nominated script, Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. Previously, Tarantino has adapted his film Inglorious Bastards into a book that provides an alternative story. So readers can expect that according to Tarantino’s classic fashion, the story in the novel will be different from the movie Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.

Trina McGee reveals racism on the set of Boy Meets World
In April of this year actress Trina McGee revealed that she dealt with racism on the set of Boy Meets World. Her character came to the show long after her castmates had been working together for years. The others had a comradery and perhaps did not want a newcomer to upset the apple cart. Based on their individual backgrounds, perhaps they had not had any direct contact with African Americans. This sounds difficult to believe for the 1990s but it very well may be true. The bottom line is that on screen, in reel time McGee's character, Angela became one of the gang and dated Corey's best friend Shawn. In real-time, however, the actress says she experienced racism and indifference from most of the cast.

"Temping"
Robert M. Massimi. Theater put forth in these peculiar times. An immersive play that involves just one person, seated at a desk and working as a temp for an actuary firm. Like going to the office, you are given a desk, a computer, a phone and of course a Brother printer. Not an easy field to work in, being thrown into a desk as a temp with no knowledge of how an actuary does his job is part of the fun. The audience member is given instructions on how to answer messages, given further instructions on the computer and receives some of the wackiest of information via the Brother.

Shaman King: Reason Makes Anna Kyoyama the Ideal Antiheroine
Every Shonen fan knows that the heroines on the shows are always sidelined from the rest of the action and are given very few opportunities. The viewers can recall watching them looking at valiant protagonists fight it out with the rivals with concern on their faces. It shows the helplessness of the heroines that is tough to watch sometimes. Even though the world has progressed a lot in the last few decades, it is depressing to watch female characters being portrayed as weak and dependent.

Things I'm Passionate About Part 6
Part 6 of this series! A neat one today! Enjoy! 1. Antiques I love antiques, my parents for example, ZING! Sorry Mom and Dad, love you. Yes, they read my work. Anyway digression; I love antiques, old relics from the past that each hold their own stories of history, whether it’s personal history or from your family, to places you might have history with or just love, to our history as a species or civilization as a whole. Not all old things are antiques, but all antiques are from the past. After reading part 5, it should come as no surprise that I love antique weapons chiefly of all; everything from a 500-year-old short-sword my Dad found at auction to old pistols and rifles from the Alamo I have my eye on. They all fascinate me and add value to my collection and net worth. As I write about antiques in the future, weapons or not, I’ll be talking about individual pieces, collections, famous antique dealers, and adrenalizing auctions. Coins are another passion of mine in this regard; a timeline of the evolution of currencies over the millennia utterly fascinates me.
