Rocky "Soul Man" Johnson, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's Dad, Dies
Regardless of your relationship with your parents, it's always hard when they pass away. When your parent is an icon of the world of wrestling and you yourself are squarely in the public eye, it's no less difficult.

Is Ozzy Dying? No - He's Going On Tour
To paraphrase Mark Twain, reports of Ozzy Osbourne's death have been greatly exaggerated. Radar Online, according to several sources, has reported that the Black Sabbath frontman, who struggled with addiction for years and had some medical struggles stemming from a fall in 2019, is in a really bad place, health wise. According to an unnamed source, Ozzy is "begging to be put out of his misery!"

The Staying Power Of Kevin Hart
Kevin Hart is probably one of the most resilient actor-comedians out there today. While Hart's brand of humor has never really been something I've been heavily into, likely because I have never been one to sit and watch comedies terribly often, I do appreciate the actor's ability to laugh at himself, first and foremost. He's frequently poking fun, mostly at his short stature, and I appreciate that about him. He's done several standup tours, starting in 2009, and has been in more than a few feature films, including Jumanji: The Next Level.

Kylo Ren And Rey A Forceful Couple
In writing this, there could be The Rise Of Skywalker spoilers, so please, consider yourself warned. Onward. I've been a fan of the Star Wars saga since I was a kid. The film that started it all bowed in 1977 when I was just four years old, and I've been hooked ever since, with it being the series I turn to when I need something to bring me comfort and peace of mind.

Why Did 'Cats' Even Happen?
I have had zero desire to see Cats. I have never wanted to see the stage play. I have no ambition to see the new feature film, though there are a couple of actors in there that I enjoy, such as Dame Judi Dench and Jennifer Hudson. I love the song "Memory;" it's one of those songs that if done right, will absolutely rip your heart out, and sometimes, you're just in the mood for songs like that.

'Star Wars: Rise Of Skywalker' A Fitting Close
I have been a fan of #StarWars my entire life. I was born in 1973, just four years before A New Hope bowed in theatres and sparked the craze that became a legend. If I saw the original Star Wars in theatres, I certainly don't remember it. Somehow, though, I was introduced to this now nine-part saga, and I've been hooked for most of my nearly-47 years.

Wakanda Forever? USDA Removes Fictional Marvel Country From Trade Partners List
In a weird case of life imitating art, the country of Wakanda - established in #Marvel canon as the homeland of King T'Challa aka Black Panther - has been struck from the list of approved free trade agreement partners with the United States Department of Agriculture, or USDA.

Why 'Where Are You Christmas?' Does Not Make My Hit Parade
'Tis the season of endless Christmas carols, both classic and a never-ending string of Christmas hits by the likes of Mariah Carey, Faith Hill and Taylor Swift, among others. One of the songs that typically makes the rounds on television stations and on radios everywhere is "Where Are You Christmas?"
