One Lantern, Two Lantern, Green Lantern, Blue Lantern

Last updated on: June 25, 2015 at 9:46 pm By Jonathan Ryan

(Jonathan Ryan posting for Jen Schlameuss-Perry.) I’m a big fan of the Green Lantern. If I was going to be a superhero, that’s what I’d want to be. Also, the Lanterns remind me of the Catholic Church—they choose people from among the community and assign them to care for the people in that place, they have councils and a hierarchy, they make fabulously horrible mistakes with galactic repercussions and, ultimately, their objective is to bring justice and peace. I... Read more

Be Who You Want……Just Don’t Expect Everyone to Like it…..

Last updated on: June 23, 2015 at 12:27 pm By jojoschaffer

I’ve been grappling with some issues that have recently come hurtling toward us through the media. Issues that it seems we aren’t supposed to form an opinion on—unless it’s the right opinion. We’ve been clearly shown and told what we should think…But, I want to explore what I actually think without the script being handed to me. What if, for instance… A friend, Anna, meets me for lunch and with a very serious expression says, “Ever since I... Read more

Caecilius Est Doctor

Last updated on: June 16, 2015 at 10:50 pm By Jonathan Ryan

(Jonathan Ryan posting for Jen Schlameuss-Perry.) When I was in middle school, I started to notice that very often there would be a connection with the things I was learning and the things I was living. It seemed uncanny at times how we’d study a particular historical item, or something in religion or science and then that thing would show up in some way in a conversation or, even better, it would be useful to a situation I’d...

The Injustice League–Gods and Monsters

Last updated on: June 10, 2015 at 9:00 pm By Jonathan Ryan

(Jonathan Ryan posting for Jen Schlameuss-Perry.) Warning: Potential Spoilers I came across some of DC’s “Justice League Gods and Monsters Chronicles” short videos today. I could share them here for you to make up your own mind, but I don’t want to be the one who shares them with anyone. They bill it as “dark” which is usually something I can get behind (tonight’s blog was initially going to be about how awesomely dark the new Aquaman looks,... Read more

Nerdy By Nature

Last updated on: June 2, 2015 at 7:07 pm By Jonathan Ryan

(Jonathan Ryan posting for Jen Schlameuss-Perry.) When I was a kid (and it still happens now), whenever someone called me a nerd, or weird-o, or any of the other charming titles I was given, I didn’t get offended because, in my head, they were recognizing that I liked what I liked and wasn’t put off admitting it just because it wasn’t popular. I was proud of the fact that nobody else dictated who I was going to be and... Read more

Master Sue

Last updated on: May 27, 2015 at 9:53 pm By Jonathan Ryan

(Jonathan Ryan posting for Jen Schlameuss-Perry.) I know that this is an entertainment blog, and that martial arts are not strictly “entertainment,” but they are “arts.” So, I’m going to write about that today. I want to tell you about my Yoda; my Master—Master Sue. She doesn’t look like a Muppet and she’s not wrinkled and green; she’s really gorgeous. And she’s awesome. Right now she’s kicking cancer’s ass, but she can kick yours (or your Master’s), too. Even... Read more

Soul Soothing Sounds of Star Wars

Last updated on: May 19, 2015 at 9:31 pm By Jonathan Ryan

(Jonathan Ryan posting for Jen Schlameuss-Perry.) Saturday night I purchased a Star Wars album on iTunes because my stupid phone won’t let me have my Star Wars CD on it since it last updated. Anyhoo… I got to listen to the album on my way to work Sunday morning, rather loudly, in my car. This particular version comes with the “Fox Fanfare” and then goes into the “Main Title” for A New Hope. I often have an emotional response... Read more

Jane Says…

Last updated on: May 12, 2015 at 10:40 pm By Jonathan Ryan

(Jonathan Ryan posting for Jen Schlameuss-Perry.) There are certain books that I read over and over because no matter where I am in my life, they speak to me. They have spoiled me for inferior books. Like The Lord of the Rings or The Chronicles of Narnia, I couldn’t even guess how many times I’ve read another favorite—Jane Eyre. Some of the best lines ever written come from this poor, plain girl who has suffered so deeply, been overlooked so... Read more

The Vision is a Vision!

Last updated on: May 6, 2015 at 6:37 pm By Jonathan Ryan

(Jonathan Ryan posting for Jen Schlameuss-Perry.) WARNING: SPOILERS I actually got to go to the movies to see a movie! My family and I went and saw Avengers: Age of Ultron. It started off wonky—it looked like a video game. I actually thought that we were watching a training simulation or something at first. I’m still not sure whether the movie adjusted or I did, but it seemed to correct itself. I thought the rest of the movie looked... Read more

The Michael Scott School of Grieving

Last updated on: April 29, 2015 at 7:17 am By Jonathan Ryan

(Jonathan Ryan posting for Jen Schlameuss-Perry.) I guess that a lot of people who write do this, but I have a tendency to write about what I need to hear at the moment. It’s a sort of therapy, I suppose. This week (who am I kidding—it can be found in my blogs for weeks past), what I’ve mostly been dealing with (actually, “dealing” might not be the word…more like “avoiding”) is grief. I left a job that I loved... Read more
