So long, RVA!
The the news has been chock full of stories of underlings fighting the corporate man, and the tiny Norma Rae in me is fired up and ready to sing “Take This Job And Shove It”, to the powers that be over at Fancy Pants Grocery, Inc.
Well, I just heard the news. Author Anne Rice, of Interview with the Vampire fame, has announced that she is “quitting Christianity”. Just like that. As easily as she joined the religion, she is peacing out. Hardly seems fair. Or an effective way of retaining members.
Some pop addicts choose PerezHilton.com to get their fix. For some, TMZ.com is their dealer. But, I am old. Old means I don’t like change. It also means I’ll soon get a discount at Denny’s. Mostly, it means I get my daily dose of useless news from People.com.
Longing for your childhood days spent watching The Brady Bunch, The Cosby Show, and Happy Days? Turns out there are very, ahem, adult versions of these classic shows available… for those of you who are into that kind of thing.
When you’re a pop culture junkie like me, there are droughts that feel like mashed potatoes with no gravy. However, lately fate has kept me in celebrity shenanigans like you wouldn’t believe. That’s the gravy, folks, and this Summer has already been hot and juicy.
If there’s one thing the modern world was missing, it was a way for millions of us to instantly know what celebrities were thinking at any time, day or night. Enter Twitter, the real time 140 character answer to all of my prayers.
Ah, The World Cup. The 80-year-old international football championship tournament is back and turning my relatively sane friends and neighbors into beer-swilling, referee-hating, armchair (or barstool, as the case may be) goalies.
When the invitation arrived in my inbox, I was expecting it. I say, “expecting it,” when I really mean that I was deeply, deeply freaked. Had I really been out of high school ten years, and if so, how come I’d accomplished not much at all? But, doctorate or no, I had no desire to attend a reunion.
It’s that time again… time to impress the Big Guy, the Head Honcho, the Papa Smurf, the Chief Commander. Whatever you call your old man, make sure you have something planned for his special day. Father’s Day is this Sunday, and RVANews will help you choose the perfect gift for your almost-perfect dad.
In celebration of their one year anniversary, the Richmond Comedy Coalition’s Katie Holcomb, Matt Newman and David Pijor, sat down with us to talk about the art of being funny, comedy’s place in Richmond, and (of course) Nutzy.
