Bridge to Terebithia(sp?) the movie: it was good, started slow but the last half made up for it. India Authentic comic series: I don't normally give reviews for comics but felt so moved by this one (mostly just to pity its passing awesomeness). This series is a retelling Hindu mythology, one diety per an issue and the first set of them was really really awesome. The second set that I just picked up not so much. Its obvious that whatever great creative mind was behind the earlyer ones now only writes... read more

More Woobie reviews: Ruby Slippers In vial: exotic sandalwood incense, almost nag-champa like. On skin: amber, and lots of it. This is a glorious amber fragrance, rich and golden and sweet and sticky but with darker, woodsier, resinous and smoky undertones. This reminds me of a black/ Tunisian amber fragrance and also of the woodsy labdanum of Pulcinella and Teresina, only lighter and less heavy-it’s very exotic, warm and sultry. The scent is like wood lacquered with amber...

I've often considered cross posting my reviews with other websites. While it does take time to redo formatting for different review systems, having my current 80+ reviews on four or five RPG sites instead of just one would result in significantly greater name recognition for me. So why h haven't I done that yet? I did give it a bit of a try with Spirit of the Century. Unfortunately, neither ENworld nor Gaming Report had review support anywhere close to what RPG.net has. While I dearly wish I could...

I doubt anyone takes my amatuerish movie reviews with anything but multiple grains of salt, but I love writing them, as you can tell by the fact that they comprise 95% of my livejournal posts as of late.

The green screen permeated every scene, and I absolutely loved it. Spartans clamoring about democracy and freedom,...

Just got the newest Fyrinnae scents and a couple of others! Their sample vials are huge now, they went from normal imp-size to big long vials, very generous and well worth the $1.85 Follow the cut for reviews on Vanilla Haven, Sienna, Nikhita, Valentina, Ayumi, Layla, and Milk of Isis! -Vanilla Haven: I was up in the air of this one but NEEDED to buy a 5ml of something for some reason. This ended up being a decent choice. Vanilla! Yes! But not sweet or foody. This ends up being a nice smokey...

I know you have things to do and a life over the weekend. You don't really read my blog so you won't mind too much if I sneak in a little crowing. We are beginning to get a little noise, a little buzz, a little joy out of reviews and reports about the Zubaan anthology . First there was the discussion on this blog. Then there were a couple of slightly strange news reports (one in the Hindu and one in the Times of India.) And now we have Jabberwock's review. I feel the tiniest bit giddy but...
