Finally, my copy of Vahilla Rising arrived. A visceral film by acclaimed director Nicolas Winding Refn, Vahilla Rising is hard to tag with the usual cinematic labels because there are many things this epic tale is not. What it is though, unquestionable and resolutely, is outside the box. This film is no cookie-cutter imitation/feel-good formula [...]

We love our Mac Pro. It’s getting a little dated (2006 vintage), but over time we have upgraded the OS X operating system, graphics card, monitors, and added a bunch of hard drive capacity and memory. It remains a real screamer that can get some proces…

Good riddance to the CAD!!

CAD = Cold Air Damming.  That’s when a high pressure system sets up shop over New England and oozes down the Atlantic seaboard, forcing cool moist Atlantic air up against the mountains (e.g. Blue Ridge here in Virginia).  The resulting weathe…
