This doesn’t feel like it will be a popular opinion, and I am always concerned with how popular my ideas are (no, wait, I meant I am NEVER concerned with that). I watched the new Will & Grace and was not overwhelmed. I wanted to be. Society has changed in 11 years (as evidently did …
Book Review Scourge by Gail Z. Martin My rating: 5 of 5 stars Imagine the TV show ‘Supernatural’ mated with ‘The Game of Thrones’. Don’t work too hard at it. Just read Scourge by Gail Z. Martin. It feels medieval, but could be some far-off, dystopian future. And frankly, it doesn’t matter to me which …
Favorite Christmas Songs I have 3 all time favorite Christmas songs (Warning: off-color humor & language – 2 of my favorite things! Real Christmas lovers will HATE these!) Special thanks to my sister, Avis, for turning me on to these classics years ago, and to Gail Martin for reminding me what I like about Christmas …
Lipstick Lesbians & Tight Leather Outfits If Greg Berlanti wants to use his TV shows to promote an over-the-top gay rights agenda (hey, they are HIS shows after all!), cool. I have the choice to NOT watch them if I feel the writing insults our intelligence. But let’s get real, for real. Not all lesbians …
Let’s start off by stating: I am NOT homophobic. I AM agenda-phobic, stereotypically-adverse, and anti-populist (No, I didn’t watch Seinfeld and never will, just because everyone said I HAD to). My rant is not even about the fact that EVERY TV show feels it must portray at least one major character as LGBTQ. But … …
The recent passing of Leonard Nimoy started me thinking about movie or TV characters that have become iconic, or impactful to the world or society in general. They have changed the way we think about character types. This usually means that they changed our thinking about something or created a vision that was unique. Sometimes it …
Talent comes in all shapes and sizes. As part of the nature of this blog, PaulMetheney.com, I get to write whatever I want to write about. That’s the bad news. Without being politically correct. That’s the good news. Well. Good-ish. If you don’t care for 70-80’s music, bizarre music trivia facts or (dare I say …
I am not Joan Rivers (thank God!) but in an effort to make the world more visually appealing, I am posting a list of what I consider a list of Fashion Horrors (and not the good-Lon-Chaney-kind either!) These fashion tragedies are for both men and women. The women’s faux pas are twice as nasty on …
NOTE: I originally wrote this in 2013, so all you non-Baptists out there can just settle down. Originally, this blog was an outlet for me to write non-politically correct stuff. I think I succeeded. I’ve been going through some my old stuff I wrote and I’m thinking “If I can’t remember it, I KNOW you …
The Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island in the Bahamas is one of the most complete, beautiful and imaginative resorts ever. Everyone should go at least once. But it helps if someone else is picking up the tab, because it is also one of the most expensive I have ever been to. I would like to …
The Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island, Bahamas is one of the most beautiful themed resorts I have ever seen. I won’t ever go back. While the resort offers all you can imagine, the prices, hidden charges and underlying greed of the resort makes it almost painful to enjoy yourself. After 4 days, everyone in our …
