Pearl Jam Legacy
Growing up as a teen of the early 90s I quickly became a fan of the new sounds coming from Seattle. Bands like Nirvana, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains and one that is still with us today… Pearl Jam. While their music has changed with the times over the years Pearl Jam is still by far one of my favorite bands of all times. I have all their studio albums and most of their B-sides and live material. I have been to several of their concerts as they have passed near here. When I heard that they were celebrating their 20th anniversary I felt really old but also psyched in what was to come
“Brawl Street” Cramer vs Stewart
The saga continues. Representing the CNBC network Jim Cramer agreed to appear on the Daily Show Thursday night. Jon Stewart completely drilled Cramer for “playing games” with peoples 401k and other longterm investments in order to fund Wall Streets greed in backroom business practices. Stewart continues to press Cramer beyond the point of uncomfortable with a series of clips from an unaired Cramer interview in 2006 admitting to his own shady business practices. One of the most serious interviews I have seen from Stewart in a long time. If looks could kill… If this embedded video cuts short you can watch the entire uncensored video at The Daily Show.

Watchmen Movie Review
Watchmen is like no superhero movie you have ever seen. In fact it could be described as the anti-superhero movie. You would never know this ahead of time judging by the deceptively flashy trailers that were released to promote the film to a wide audience. That is of course unless you have read the highly acclaimed 12 part graphic novel Watchmen that was released in 1986. TIME magazine even included the four hundred page series in its Top 100 english novels of the 20th century. An honor rarely seen for a medium of its kind. Some have even referred to it as the “Citizen Kane of comic books”. As pretentious as that claim may seem the source material really does carry with it a lot of weight. This explains its continued popularity over the past twenty years.
