I can satirically say that after receiving a free upgrade to the magical world of first class for the first time in my life, I don’t know how people live with flying in coach.
Watches are fashion accessories; we can check the time is on our cell phones. One-on-one conversation involves Skype, Facebook chat, or text messages. If we get into an argument, our cases are legitimized by looking up YouTube videos on our smart phones that are now outdated because they were purchased last month.
Kim Kardashian is famous for a lot of reasons that society would hate to admit, but on Aug. 20, the world had an American wedding that could challenge the Royal wedding in terms of importance to People Magazine.
I’ll admit it right up front — I originally found this picture online while looking for an absurd image I could use to mock my friends in Fantasy Football.

There are 52 days until Christmas. Depending on your perspective, 52 days might sound like forever, or like no time at all. Either way, the Christmas season is upon us again, most especially in the commercial world.
On Oct. 13, a 2-year-old girl was run over twice by a van and once more by a truck on the streets of Guangfo Hardware Market in Huangqi of Foshan, a city in central Guangdong province in southern China.
I’ve been reading the blog for the Occupy Wall Street movement. And for the most part, I agree with the debt-owing disgruntled.
John Edwards may not be the most moral person of all time, but is it actually fair to call him a criminal and send him to jail?
Most people are familiar with Joseph Gordon-Levitt for his roles in “Inception” and “(500) Days of Summer,” because those movies were both critically acclaimed. So the only logical question many of us can think to ask is this: can Gordon-Levitt continue to do such awesome films?
When I sat down at my computer, I was going to write a column on why I think Baylor should require mandatory service from every Baylor student.
You can smoke in films and win an Academy Award – just ask Colin Firth, who played a king who was arguably a chain-smoker in “The King’s Speech” – but you sure can’t let your campaign manager smoke in a campaign ad.
The Austin Film Festival provides a neat opportunity for aspiring film makers and cinema aficionados to learn about the process, but there’s one major problem: the ticket prices.
Watching Republican presidential candidates wax indignant over the federal government’s inability to enforce its own immigration laws makes one wonder. Which, if any, fundamental principles does the party faithful base its timid support for free markets and private property rights?
Time management is possibly one of the most important things a college student has to learn. There are so many distractions on and off campus.
Being a fan of a particular sports team can be exciting and fun. But there are also times when a fan has to endure heartbreak. In my case, being from Houston, I root for the Texans, Rockets and the Astros.

When I went home for fall break, the first thing my dad said to me was, “Jack Black is in a PG movie.” At first I laughed, thinking he meant “Kung Fu Panda,” but then my younger sister chimed in with, “You mean the one with Steve Martin.”

And even if you do believe you’re a writer, it can be easy to think you’re not a good one— between writer’s block and merciless editors, the talent can often feel elusive.
I’m not going to make a joke about pizza here because I’m really, really tired of everyone else making the same stupid jokes. So I’m just going to say what needs to be said.
The bear trail: a feat that many take on with many motives.
Whether or not McMenamin is right about the reality of a Kraken, the Kraken has a very real history in a very unlikely place: fiction.
Want to watch something horrifying without Krakens?
