The Great Lollipop Caper-ridiculously clever and really funny

The Great Lollipop Caper by Dan Krall is the title of the book and an allegory. Allegory sounds like a serious Shakespearean word that can’t possible denote anything fun or light.  Ah, but The Great Lollipop Caper is allegory at its finest, aimed at children, but with adults possibly getting the most enjoyment out of the book.

Iron Man 3 is less Iron, more Man-but very entertaining

The next movie after an excellent movie is challenging.  Iron Man 3 and The Dark Knight Rises should go bowling.  They’d talk about how great they were, mention their previous entries and then Iron Man mentions that  his  previous movie was actually The Avengers.  Then Batman would laugh, talk about the Justice League Movie (yeah…right) and Iron Man would go on talking about Avengers 2.

So you’ve got $100 to spend @Kmart, what do you do? #SWEEPS #ad

Continue reading So you’ve got $100 to spend @Kmart, what do you do? #SWEEPS #ad
