"Anger Management," which co-stars Sandler and Jack Nicholson. "He worked nonstop." Sandler has used his clout not only to gain greater control over his own films, but also to boost the careers of former "Saturday Night Live" friends such as Rob Schneider, David Spade and Dana Carvey by guiding their pet projects through the studio system. Dorfman described Sandler as "a benevolent mogul," and Carvey said his 2002 film, "The Master of Disguise," would have gone nowhere without Sandler's help.
quite possibly one of the greatest marketing ploys to have ever been created and has developed into in its own words "a creature unlike any other." By successfully exploiting the classic notion of "happily ever after," Ellen Fein and Sherrie Schneider have created a mega brand that has sold millions of dollars of nonsensical teachings to unsuspecting women for more than a decade. I call these teachings nonsensical not because they aren't effective, but because of, among other things, Fein and
Growing up my dad would re-watch the Dukes of Hazard and I usually would be on the couch right beside him. It influenced me to grow up as a rebel. The Dukes of Hazard showed me an 8 year old kid that sometimes the culturally wrong thing it the right thing to do. The general Lee and the confederate flag represent that but now it’s seen as racist. In the thirty years that show has been around it was never called out once for being racist. Over the years Dukes of Hazard has inspired me in a number

comes to mind, the very first film director I could imagine is Rob Zombie. Rob Zombie holds some of the most intensely weird films you could think of. When I began watching cult films, I was reminded of Zombie and the way he has no shame in putting things out there that many would disapprove of.

The show is about a celebrity I admire, Caitlyn Marie Jenner originally known as William Bruce Jenner.

“Shaving” is a short story about a teenage boy who shaves his dying father. Throughout this story, there are many lines of dialogue, and although they may seem simple at first, most of them have a profound deeper meaning. For example, near the beginning of the book, where his father stays to Barry that “You could have used electric razor, I expected that.” Barry replies by saying that “You wouldn’t like it, you’ll get a closer shave this way.” In this quote, what they talk about on the surface is

first coming to terms with the finite stretch of life one has and then making the most of it.
