You might be tempted to eat this soap. The most interesting thing about it is what feels and looks like bits of actual Oatmeal And Almond. It’s a Nourishing Bath Bar that “helps soothe dry skin” and “exfoliates”. It seems to clean remarkably well and smells like cocoa butter, but the moderate lather doesn’t exactly suggest “English luxury”.

“Each pizza is crafted with the utmost care”, the box reads. That’s promo fluff, but the quality does rank among the better frozen Pizzas available at your local grocery store. Would it taste better with meat? Probably. Is it good as is? Yes; mostly thanks to its “decadent cheeses” and Italian tomato sauce.

People expecting this Punch; a Big Game Energy drink; to taste like something akin to carbonated Pineapple juice will be disappointed. There is a hint of the fruit; one of my favorites. What you mostly get though is a sweet but odd and off-putting flavor that almost suggests the beverage is spoiled.

“Both of these women are dry,” Joe Rogan observes early in Round 1, “They’re not soaked in sweat yet.” By the end, as Tracy Cortez is dominating (“riding”) her opponent on the mat, her back is indeed sweaty and it’s a sexy sight to behold. Not that the fight itself is uneventful. It’s just not particularly competitive. Cortez wins decisively.

I don’t think I’ve ever had a Snow Cone; maybe as a little kid; but I’d hope it tastes a lot better than this Energy Drink; one of the worst in the G Fuel line-up. The flavor is similar to how dumpster garbage tends to smell, which is quite repulsive. You can put it in the freezer to enhance the concept, but it won’t do much for the taste.

“Don’t you go nowhere,” Michael Jackson once sang to who he promised would “always be” The Lady In My Life. Of course promises aren’t always kept, so now we have a breakup ballad. “Tell me what I have to do so you stay,” he pleads, “Should I get down on my knees and pray?”
The lyrics are trite and the concept is corny. I can understand not wanting a relationship to end, but begging her not to leave you is way over the line. It’s the sweet vocal melodies that save the song, especially near the end when the backgrounds and kick drum come into play.

The Pac-Man Power Pellet Energy Drink makes sense and its Cherry flavor fits the concept of the game. This Tetris Blast is much more of a head-scratcher because the game has nothing to do with eating or drinking. The flavor is somewhat akin to cream soda but with a mildly off-putting aftertaste.

The first bite might be off-putting to people who aren’t used to eating Mexican food, but these Cheese Enchiladas, made by the Realgood Foods Company not in Mexico but New Jersey, get better the more you eat. Are they really good? No; they’d be better without the spicy “red sauce”; but they’re not bad.
my rating : 3 of 5
This story should’ve taken place 28 Months Later to leave room for the sequel it so blatantly sets up at the end. Not that it matters much. 28 Days Later is a good horror flick that, like most, should’ve been left alone. These sequels simply aren’t up to par.
The plot, like its characters, runs away from the zombies it’s supposed to be about. They’re a conceptual underlining to what has become, even more so than before, a kindred love story. The peak, when the action should be in high gear, is slow and soppy.

This is Slick Rick’s first album since the 1990s and, from the sound of it, not much has changed. He still raps like Slick Rick and these lo-fi beats could have easily come from that era. That’s a good thing. The songs are indolently short and the set is short on singing; his most charming musical attribute; but it’s otherwise a proper follow-up to The Art Of Storytelling. Royal highlights include Landlord and Spirit To Fly.

![video review : The Kids In The Hall [ Season 1 ]](https://marcellee.com/posts/133867.webp)
This is Season 1 not of the original but the Amazon Original version of The Kids In The Hall, but it should’ve been edited down to one decent episode. The full eight-part set is bloated with filler; comedy bits that aren’t funny. It does bring back the original cast members and theme music, but nostalgia can only take you so far before you hit the wall.

Rodolfo Bellato gives Aljamain Sterling a run for his money in this rescheduled bout against Paul Craig. After taking an illegal upkick to the face, he gestures a complaint to the ref; you don’t see that part till the replay; before appearing to fake a knockout, even going as far as to fight the ref. Impressive highlights for a future TKO transfer to the WWE.
