10-List: Firewater’s Favorite AC/DC Tracks

Every 10-List that I compile is what I refer to as a “production” post. While the resulting product may seem like something I slapped together in a white-hot rush, it actually takes time for me to create it. If I have integrity at all, I have to demonstrate it to myself first. Before I can […]

10-List: First Seasons (Since October 2022)

I take a lot of series on a test run. Some I watch and become addicted to, and I watch more. Some, not so much. These are the first seasons I’ve watched or started since October 2022.

10-List: Firewater’s Favorite Rush Songs

The death of Neil Peart in 2020 inspired me to listen to all of the Rush studio albums, both again and for the first time with some of the later releases. First, I assembled a list of my Top-25 tracks (the other fifteen are in the “honorable mentions” below). I was surprised that there were […]

A couple of epigraphs in that novel introduced me to musical artists who were not yet familiar to me. First was Bob Dylan, whose “Shelter from the Storm” was […]

10-List: Firewater’s Top-10 MCU Properties (New and Improved!!)

I assembled a comprehensive list of movies and television series that I believe would be considered to be a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Not just motion pictures this time. This included the various Marvel One-Shot short films but excluded the pre-Tom Holland Spider-Man movies and the X-Men and Fantastic Four movies. I look […]

10-List: First Seasons Watched (Since April 2022)

While it remains true that I’m a throwback, a curmudgeonly oldster who lives a disturbing amount of his time in the past, adverse to change and seriously un-hip to the latest trends in fashion, music and technology, I still surprise myself, on occasion, by moving away from my comfort zone to try out a new […]
