Rating the "Tori Episodes" of "Saved by the Bell"
Among the many things that fascinate me about Saved by the Bell is the fact that the show, in its many forms, has "themed" episodes. We all know the themes. The series started with a theme: Good Morning, Miss Bliss. We're also familiar with the "Malibu Sands" episodes; the six episodes from Season Three where the group worked at the Malibu Sands resort. Even New Class, which aired from 1993 until 2000, had some themed episodes. But we all know what the most known themed group of episodes was, and how this came to be wasn't exactly pretty.

Malcolm, Michael, and Terry. Top Story - July 2025.
It's been very hard to be a member of what we call Generation X this week. The pain is too big to handle alone. My title might be a little confusing, so I will get that out of the way first: Malcolm-Jamal Warner, John Michael "Ozzy" Osbourne, and Terry Gene Bollea ("Hulk Hogan") have all passed away, and my mind is in many different places as I type this out. The summer has been hot, financially unrewarding, full of news of insanity, violence and disappointment. It all seems so familiar. And to read about these losses and to have to go on with my day just seems ridiculous.

The First Film to Win an Oscar: Wings (1927)
Before the glitz of the red carpet, before Meryl Streep collected her first golden statue, and before movies spoke a single word—there was Wings. In a time when cinema was still discovering its voice, one film soared above the rest and etched its name into history. Wings (1927) wasn’t just the first Best Picture winner at the Academy Awards—it was a breathtaking war epic that proved film could be more than entertainment. It could be art.

Open Letter to Astronaut
Dear Astronaut Executives, Board Members, PR Crisis Interns, and whoever’s still left monitoring the corporate Slack, I hear you're looking for a new CEO after your last one heroically resigned in the wake of the Coldplaygate debacle. Tragic stuff. A man felled not by fiscal mismanagement, a hostile takeover, or even a private jet scandal—but by Chris Martin’s dreamy falsetto and a poorly-timed photo op. Corporate martyrdom truly has a new face.
