Garver’s Movie Review Bob Garver It has been well-established that “Spider-Man: No Way Home” dominated the box office over the Christmas and New Year weekends, with “Sing 2” putting in a strong showing at number two.

0By Tyler Trieglaff Notes from the Chief Well, I spoke too soon as was pointed out to me last Friday. I was in the local lumber yard buying more heat tape and insulation for under my new abode as the water line decided to freeze up again. Someone had to get smart and tell me that they… Read More

0By Tyler Trieglaff Notes from the Chief Welp, it’s finally here. The weather is colder than my ex’s heart. There seems to be a bit of snow on the ground too, if you haven’t noticed.
