Taylor Swift - We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together

I don't often post music videos but when I do, you know it's a good one. My girl Taylor Swift has done it again and has written the most ridiculously catchy song, ever. Not going to lie... this video is a tad strange. Not sure what the people dressed as animals have to do with an on-again-off-again relationship but she makes it work. Enjoy having this song stuck in your head for the rest of the week.

Knock Knock! Special Delivery From The @BoozeCarriage!

How many times have you been pre-gaming in your apartment and then run out of beer? Someone is forced to leave the fun-ness and head down the street to replenish for the rest of us. As someone who doesn't party that much, drinking has to be as easy as possible. Any effort on my part and I'm going to change my mind and stay in to watch a movie. It must have been fate that I was contacted by a booze delivery service. What was that? Did you say booze delivery? YES I DID!

Epic Movie Quotes: Austin Powers- International Man of Mystery

Mike Myers is back for another epic movie quote! We last saw him rocking it in Wayne's World and this week we are highlighting this award-worthy performance in Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery. Right when the movie is about to end, they grace us with an awesome quote:

Book Review: The Age of Miracles

This book was recommended to me by a fellow co-worker and book nerd Nicole. I was hesitant at first, because it is written through the eyes of a 12 year old and I thought the book would be geared towards teens and would not be something I'd enjoy. The Age of Miracles, however, has a way of sucking you in with the scary realism of its plot line.

Kevin Clash Lives His Life 'Being Elmo'

Want to smile for an entire movie? Then go rent Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey. Being Elmo is about the man behind the beloved Sesame Street character. Elmo is a character we all know and love and the story of the puppet (and the man behind the puppet) makes for a seriously feel-good movie. Here's what I loved about it:

Epic Movie Quotes: Billy Madison

This movie is just one big epic quote, but for the purposes of this blog I will have to choose just one! I would venture to say that this is the most famous Billy Madison quote there is (although you can definitely put up a good argument for others). Another scene where Adam Sandler is in his prime. Check it out!

The Secret To Great Content

Content is king. We all know it is important. We hold it on such a high pedestal. We invest in making it great. Those who really understand why we love content so much know that there is an underlying reason why content is "king. "The purpose of having great content to elicit a response - engagement, a like, a retweet, a download - something that shows us our customer is listening. How do we do this? How do we provoke our community to take action? With the secret to great content of course...

The Key To A Good Business Book

Ever since the invention of the Kindle, I have become an acid reader. Pre-Kindle I read Harry Potter and nothing else, but now my taste has expanded. I love fun fiction books just as much as the next guy but from time to time I actually enjoy reading a business book. My job has exposed me to many and I have read the good, the bad, and the dreadfully boring.

Epic Movie Quotes: Dodgeball

I will be the first to admit that it's been a while since my boys Vince Vaughn and Ben Stiller have made a good movie (although I haven't seen The Watch so I could be wrong!). Nothing beats when they come together to make comedic genius in Dodgeball. Patches had a ton of great quotes but this was probably the most memorable...

Reasons I Hate New York City

Turns out, I'm not the only one who has been feeling this way lately. #25hours author, Shari, wrote about reasons to hate NYC in the summer earlier this week. While I am in 100% agreement with those complaints, I have a few of my own I need to get off my chest. New York is the greatest city in the world. It is the capital of the universe. I love this city, BUT I also hate it in so many ways.

Epic Movie Quotes: Wayne's World

SNL has not only brought us some of the funniest television, but has also spawned some very funny movies! Although this isn't my favorite movie, it still ranks as pretty quotable. Here's to a classic!

NYC Summers. Yuck.

I live for summers. I love the beach, the vacations, the rooftop drinking events. But I despise New York City in the summertime. Specifically these three specific things:

The Dark Knight... I Mean The Lion King Rises

Anyone with a pulse knows that The Dark Knight Rises is the biggest movie since.... well, The Dark Knight. With anyone popular movie comes lots of fun parodies. This one caught my eye considering how much I love Disney movies. It's so accurate, it's crazy.
