Ah the golden days of wrestling…back when we were all smelling what the Rock was cooking and Triple-H and Stone Cold Steve Austin were running around and raising hell, all under the ever-watchful (and creepy) eyes of Vince McMahon. Well, in the last decade, a lot and nothing have changed…

Animated films (not to be confused with that Pixar noise) have seriously been upgraded since we were kids. We were satisfied with a simple story about a lion cub that loses his dad and has to grow up fast to save his family and friends (with lovable sidekicks in tow)…

If you were to brainstorm all of the possible festivals TXU would sponsor, an art fest probably wouldn’t make the top of the list. Or maybe that’s just us. Either way, it appears that the energy company wants to keep all of us guessing by presenting the seventh annual CityArts…

Who doesn’t love baseball? Furthermore, who doesn’t love a good movie about baseball? The Natural, The Sandlot, Rookie of the Year (Come on, who didn’t think Henry Rowengartner was precious? And it’s probably the last sane thing Gary Busey ever did.), Field of Dreams–I could go on forever. It’s easy…

Nowadays, stoner humor is as pervasive to mainstream culture as Disney Channel actors who start music careers and a series of forgettable ABC Family made-for-TV movies. From films such as Pineapple Express and Half Baked to comedians Katt Williams and Doug Benson, smoking pot has become popularized to a point…

For the past few months, the DFW are has been eagerly awaiting the start of the Texas Rangers 2010 season. However, they aren’t the only team in the metroplex who just started a new season. The Frisco RoughRiders, the Rangers affiliate AA team, are rounding out the first month of…

Usually whenever the Trinity River is referenced in conversation nowadays, the topic is met with a certain level of criticism and debate. And while everyone probably has an opinion about the maintenance of the river, levees, and other related tax-absorbing projects, there is a segment of the DFW population that…

Whenever I hear about a Wayans bother, I immediately think of Scary Movie (s) 1-27. But Damon Wayans is one of the other brothers; not either of the ones that can take credit for that ground breaking franchise. Damon Wayans is the more, shall we say, critically acclaimed brother whose…

It’s still somewhat shocking that, as the start of baseball season looms nearer, people in DFW are excited about the home team’s prospects. Long-time natives of the Dallas area can attest that the years of dread or downright indifference to a Texas Rangers season seemed endless. That is, until last…

Nothing complements a Sun Salutation quite like a multiple-course, five-star meal. If you disagree, take it up with At One Yoga co-founder David Romanelli, whose Jam Sessions: Yoga for Foodies does just that. His food-quality-inspired concept will make a stop in Dallas on Monday at Tsada Yoga, in South Side…

If you were to see a hot dog–bedecked with a generous amount of ketchup–placed in the foreground of a picture of a blurry moon and azure night sky, what would you think? If it has something to do with spatial context, well then, you are smarter than I am. This…

There is something undeniably inspiring and unifying about dance films. Footloose, Saturday Night Fever, Flashdance, You Got Served (that last one is obviously a joke…hopefully)…you get the idea. A film deserving classification amongst these on the great list of moving dance films is Dancing Across Borders, a film that will…

Back in the ’90s, Jonathon Larson made rock ‘n’ roll and seriously heavy issues all one nice, catchy musical package when he penned RENT. Well, apparently 100 years before that, a guy over in Germany had already done the same thing when he wrote Spring Awakening. The play centers around…

Last year, when USA Today published the salaries of all of the players in the NBA, I had never given much thought to how much players make. Didn’t care, still don’t. Well, after reading the breakdown of the highest-paid players, I remember thinking, “Kevin Garnett makes more than LeBron?!” That…

For the most part, cover bands are a huge letdown. They’re cheesy, over the top and, more often than not, generally disappointing. That said, Rain: A Tribute to The Beatles seems to be everything but the typical gang of wannabes. This musical tribute to one of the greatest bands of…

There are some things in life that are just plain funny. Even though they might be directed at one certain person (or an entire gender) and be highly offensive, you cannot help–even if you are included in the group being hated on–but laugh. I think that entire idea sums up…

Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like one day, Tyler Perry just came out of nowhere. Then, all of a sudden, there’s this robust black woman named Madea kicking ass and taking names (both literally and figuratively) all over the place. In five years, Perry has written, produced and…

Who can forget pre-Lord of the Ring’s Elijah Wood’s performance of one of American literature’s famous characters, Huck Finn? I sure can’t…but not because of the actor (or the acting, for that matter). Well believe it or not, the man that brought you (and Elijah) Huckleberry Finn and almost as…

I bet you don’t know this, but there are some pretty cool things about butterflies, other than, of course, their colorful wings. For one, butterflies taste with their feet! Imagine if humans tasted with their feet…gross. Nonetheless, take advantage of the opportunity to learn more about these interesting creatures and…
