Bananas are a blessing, but the way your breath smells after eating one is just obscene. Banana breath is one of the most common causes of social ostraci...

I recently watched the musical “School of Rock” at Clowes Memorial Hall at Butler University. I had previously watched Shen Yun at Clowes, and I was excited to see my first professional musical. “School of Rock” is a rock musical based on the 2003 film of the same name, which starred Jack Bl...

While binge-watching “Family Feud,” a movie trailer of “A Dog's Way Home” popped up and I immediately knew that I wanted to see that movie. I do not know if it was entirely because of the cuteness of the dog, but I went right out to see it. “A Dog's Way Home” is based on a W. Bruce Cameron ...

Hundreds of years ago, when the kiwi was first found by the western world, the explorers must have been amazed by what tasted like a sweet cross between a mango and strawberry. Nowadays, however, the kiwi is not a household fruit, yet it is not unheard of either. It falls in the area of uncommon rather ...

The TV show, “D. Grayman” intrigued me. It is an anime, and I would classify it as an action adventure. It popped up in 2004 and continued until 2016, though I would say maybe 1 out of 1000 people have heard of it. I have heard of most shows in this genre, but this show had not come on my radar u...

Over break, I saw the movie “Instant Family” with a few of my friends. At first, I was not excited to see the movie because of where we were seated. Almost every single seat in the theater was full except for three in the very front row. The movie, at least to me, was immediately off to a bad st...
