Mascot or Monster?

0
To give him some credit, just about all mascots give me the creeps, but there is something about Petey that goes the extra mile into terror town. Be it his emotionless doe-eyes, or his snarky smile, something about him just doesn’t seem right. We’ve all seen him enthusiastically motivating crowds at sporting events, meandering around campus giving high fives, and leaving a trail of

Gabe Carrio’s Jam Sesh: “Flume”

0
“Flume” is the debut, self-titled studio album by Australian artist Flume, obviously, released in 2011.

“Spectre”: Craig’s Bond’s Swan Song

0
Let me preface this by saying I’ve never seen a Bond film. I paradoxically went into “Spectre” not knowing what to expect, and left with exactly what I expected. Looking at “Spectre” from a technical standpoint, I can confidently say that this film is incredible, with amazing cinematography, a beautiful score, and excellently casted characters.
