Welcome to the Entertainment Channel

Everybody loves a good book…or movie…or album…or TV show or…everybody loves entertainment. The diversions that take us away from the drudgery of our everyday lives. Our escapes. Arts and entertainment should evoke an emotion in the viewer, the listener, and the participant. Good entertainment makes you think. Makes you talk about it. That’s the goal of this blog--to talk about arts and entertainment.

    While watching “Lie to Me” last night – the television series in which Tim Roth plays Dr. Cal Lightman, a human lie-detector tackling corporate shenanigans and endless enclouding crimes --something hit me about the show. Something had...
