I keep hearing about the movie ?War Horse,? how uplifting and how great a movie it is and I just have to say one thing: I don?t buy it. Nope, not one bit. Thoughts of ?Seabiscuit? keep trickling into my head and I know they aren?t the same, but they got the same Metacritic score.

It happens every year around the holidays.?Usually I’ve had a few drinks on New Years Eve and I make a promise to myself (I hate calling it a ?resolution?) that I’ll be better at handling my finances in the coming year.?But, as the new year gets less new, I forget my beer-buzz-inspired plans.?The credit card

Chances are that you consumed a lot of alcohol on New Year?s Eve. That means that the first day of 2012 was spent in bed with the blinds drawn and your duvet pulled over your face until 4pm. If you want to nurse your hangover and get your ass out of bed to enjoy at

I like getting outdoors and I love a good hike. A hike can be anywhere. City hiking is great because it is so much easier to get to know your immediate surroundings with a good hike than it is while driving around, getting from one place to the next. Getting to know your surroundings as

Oh man, I feel bad about this week’s column. I’d planned on writing about Vaclav Havel eventually, but then he died and I feel responsible in some roundabout karmic way. See, this is why I try to focus on people who’ve been dead for a while. The guilt is too much for me. But Havel

Merry Christmas, everyone! And, in the spirit of inclusion, merry Chanukkah, Kwanzaa, Saturnalia, Yule, Festivus, Boxing Day, Pumpkin Pie Day, Bicarbonate of Soda Day, and Watermelon/Qunice Month! Whew. I think that’s everything. This week’s Self Made Man is, fittingly, someone who played the Grinch not too long ago: Jim Carrey. Most people know Jim Carrey

Why must all actresses decide to make Lifetime style movies? I look at ?The Blind Side? starring the lovely Sandra Bullock and even though it is about football, and I like football, I can?t see past all of the helping someone realize their potential and culminating in some speech somewhere. Now, I don?t begrudge the

What?s the last thing you searched for on Google? Be honest. Was it something like ?Kim Kardashian divorce,? ?Tim Tebow Jesus? or ?belated Christmas gifts?? Mine was ?obsessed TV series? (more about that later.) If you?re one of the 84 percent of Americans with unhealthy body fat, it?s likely you searched for something along the

2011 might not have been your year. You could have screwed up a fantastic relationship with a beautiful girl, blown a project at work, stopped going to the gym, or lost a great friendship. Lord knows, Tiger Woods had an excruciating year. He had his sexual addiction broadcast to the world and suffered a winning

If I recall correctly, the last Frenchman I wrote about for Awesome Men Throughout History was a furious iconoclast who was always in trouble and didn?t care. The current Frenchman I?m writing about ? poet and musician Serge Gainsbourg ? is cut from the same cloth. Is that a cultural thing? Maybe it?s something in

Man, last week’s column got a little teary-eyed, huh? Sheesh. You’d think I was campaigning for a daytime Emmy or something. I mean, it’s hard not to get into some real talk when the subject is a guy like Frederick Douglass, but I think we can lighten the mood this week by focusing on a
