So a few days ago I got a new comment on a post I wrote almost two years ago (which was just about the last time I was on here). And it got me thinking “Professional Procrastinators? What the hell is that?” Then I realized “OH right. That website thing I used to post a bunch of nonsense on. I completely forgot about that.”
At anyrate this person seemed to like my post and asked that I write more, so I figured why not. So I dusted off my keyboard, (seriously dusted it. ever since I got my Ipod Touch I use my computer like once a month now to delete emails that have been building up!) and after twenty minutes of trying to remember what my password was I decided to put pixelated letters to screen. Only one problem I don’t really have any ideas, as of yet, to write about.
So my proposition to the one person that may read this in the next few days is to give me a topic to write about. A person would think that after two years I would have something to say about anything, but alas my mind is as blank as a fresh canvas.
Next time on “Mar’s Corner” … Me writing about …something.
Ok. Wow! It has been awhile. But I guess now is as good a time as any to post something new. So this week (like I do this on a regular basis! Oh man!) I am posting my top 5 comic book characters of all time. Now unfortunately this list may change in the future do to the fact that sometimes a mediocre character can turn into a really good one if the comic has a good writer, and since writers are constantly changing on a comic, characters tend to change position a lot on my list. So as of now here is my list. Read more…
I am by no means old. I am only 28 and still have plenty of life left in me, but I have hit that point where I realized I AM getting older. I have a bunch of nephews and nieces who I am pretty sure are all smarter than me. Friends are getting married and buying houses. And the kicker… shows I used to watch when I was younger are now on Nick At Nite! I don’t want to get older because getting older means change and I have never been a big fan of change, but a couple of things this past weekend have shown me that getting older does not have to be a bad thing.

It’s been awhile but I am back with another marvelous Top 5 List. I was sitting around the other day thinking about all the great board games I used to play. I would like to play some of these games more often than I do but unfortunately none of my friends or family seem all that interested in playing these types of games anymore. Which kind of bums me out since a lot of these games can be started with out much prep time and they are a nice change of pace from what we usually do. So at any rate, I realized I should rank my favorite board games and put them in some sort of list so others will know how much I like them. Why? I don’t know but here it is anyway. So have fun.

I have recently fallen in love with zombies… hmm, ok maybe not recently but my love for them has reached new heights. I have always been a fan of zombie movies (good and bad) and I have always really enjoyed video games with zombies or zombie ‘like’ creatures in them. But I (with the help of my friend, Gamin) have recently uncovered two zombie gems that may have been overlooked by the majority of the populace. The Peter Jackson film “Dead Alive” aka “Braindead” and the video game “Siren: Blood Curse”. Read more…
I have to be honest. I am not a huge sports person (other than boxing of course). Sure if one of my hometown teams is doing well I will check out a game or two (GO RAIDERS!). Or if I have money riding on a game…or two (going to Vegas and putting twenty bucks down to possibly win a thousand makes sports really interesting). But other than that I really don’t watch or keep up with sports. It’s just not my thing. So why is it that I love movies about sports? There are a ton of great sports films and I love a lot of them. For a really long time I couldn’t figure it out. Until I realized sports films are like sports concentrate. All the thrills with out all that boring in between stuff like commercials or time outs or commentators. Films have to be exciting and compelling otherwise whats the point. So all that stuff I find so boring is eliminated. HA HA! Sports the way it was meant to be watched…edited! So here is a list of my Top 5 sports films… Read more…
OK ok ok. I have been meaning to do this one for a while but it was tough because comics change all the time. One day you will be into a certain comic and then all of the sudden they change writers or artists and the comic goes right down the crap shoot. So what I have done is basically picked out my favorite comcs during a certain point in there story. For instance rather than just saying X-Men I have selected a certain point in the X-Men story line as my favorite. So now that that is explained lets get to it… Read more…
Here is another awesome Top 5 List. This week I am making a list of my top 5 favorite stand-up comics. This is another one of those things that will change every now and then depending on what mental state I am in at the time. But I tried to do my best to make this one accurate. So lets go…

This one is almost a week late and I’m sorry but it was tough figuring out what to write. I am no sports journalist, and I am pretty sure that will become evident as you read on. But I gave it a go any way. I am a pretty big boxing fan. I try to keep up with the sport as best I can, but the boxing landscape changes all the time. Fighters come and go. Only the truly great ones stick round. Here is my list of my all time favorite boxers. Read more…
Ok this top 5 was requested by Kuna. She said that if I didn’t do it she would hurt me…sooo I decided to do it because I don’t want to lose a thumb.
I really enjoy CG movies. Even if the majority of these films are geared for children I still like them. Maybe it’s because a CG movie takes so much time and effort to make the creators of these films have no choice but to make sure they do the best they can. Whatever the reason here are my favorites… Read more…
