R-E-S-P-E-C-T: I haven't been inspired to write lately, but from now on, I will try to briefly muse on no more than one topic per day. Today: the death of Rodney Dangerfield. Rodney was one of my favorite comics. He wasn't the guy who invented the one-liner, but he perfected it. Simple concepts, twists, quick in and out, and a great persona. A lot of people hated his humor, but I thought he was the master of the self-deprecating joke. "Caddyshack" and "Back to School" were great showcases for his work, but he soon became old-fashioned, and out-of-date. Maybe the general public gave you no respect, but to me, you deserve all the respect in the world. Rest in peace, Rodney.

I hope to use this site to practice my writing and humor skills as well as to flex some film reviewing muscles which have been withering away for about twenty years.
