Latest Work

I am forcing myself to post something, anything, since it has been so long since my previous entry. So I am going to share some of the work I’ve been doing (professionally & scholastically).

Michael Jackson: 10 Greatest & 10 Most Overrated

Growing up in the 80′s with a father who loved music and an uncle who was in a band I spent a lot of time watching MTV and VH1, thus I was a pretty big fan of Michael Jackson. He is one of my first memories growing up. “The Way You Make Me Feel” was my favorite song and music video for quite some time. I also loved “Billie Jean” and “Beat It”. Then I remember watching the mini-series “The Jacksons: An American Dream” when it aired in 1992. I recommend anybody and everybody to watch this by the way, I’m sure it will be being aired a lot now. This further cemented my respect and appreciation of his music along with opening my eyes to the music of the Jackson 5.

Now as much as Michael was eccentric and out-there he was a genius and easily the greatest performer and dancer ever. I don’t know when we will ever see an icon of his magnitude again, if ever.

So stick around and see my countdown of The King of Pop’s top 10 greatest songs and his 10 most over-rated songs (as great as he was, he wasn’t perfect).

Logic & Reason

Hulu.com is great. Full length movies and TV shows in high quality (as long as you have a fast enough internet connection).

Here is “Inherit the Wind”, a movie made for television in 1999 that was a remake of the classic film from 1960 with Spencer Tracy and Gene Kelly. This version is with the great Jack Lemmon and George C. Scott. There have been three television remakes total, this one being the latest incarnation. All movies were originally based off of the play which was based on an actual court case that happened in 1925 in Tennessee.

Here is the plot summary from imdb:

This is another re-enactment of the play about the trial in 1925 of a school teacher who dared to teach Darwinian theory in his classroom. He did this as a consequence of one of his student’s request to know… The student was a lad named ‘Stebbins’, and the trial (dubbed the ‘Monkey Trial’) pitted the great attorney of the day, Clarence Darrow, against the often running presidential candidate, and famous orator, William Jennings Bryan.

Since the original 1960 film isn’t on Hulu (yet) this one will have to do. I highly recommend this movie. It makes important points on what makes the USA a great country and also points out some of the things that are very wrong. Evolution versus Creationism.
