Another Look at Human Target


Having now seen every first season episode of Human Target, the FOX network series starring Mark Valley and Chi McBride, I can declare that I enjoy this show tremendously. It got better after the first few episodes. It started slowly, but gained a lot of momentum soon after. The comic timing of Chi McBride is fantastic. As well, Jackie Earle Haley (The Bad News Bears-1976, Little Children-2006) as Guerrero is great. Some nice guest appearances by folks such as Grace Park, Lennie James, and Lee Majors have added quite a bit also. Season 2 starts on November 17 on a FOX station near you.

Gulab Jamun


If you have not done so, I encourage you to try gulab jamun, a tasty dessert found at Indian restaurants. They are small balls of dough that taste like donut holes. They are commonly served in a sugary syrup. Try them. Your mouth will thank you.

Carnival Magic!


The brilliant film, Carnival Magic, was on Turner Classic Movies last Friday night/Saturday morning! I do not recall any other time in Earth's history that this film has been shown on television. It has never been released on dvd or vhs. I first saw it at the greatness of the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, Texas. Carnival Magic was directed by Al Adamson and was made in 1982. See it if you can!
