In this week’s movie-slot at Webb, I’m celebrating the 50th anniversary of Jaws. So here at Weird Words we’re doing that, too — with a look at vocab from the world of boats and sailing. Earlier, we covered more than a dozen regular words that have a special meaning on deck — terms like beam,
Every summer, I find it’s necessary to change up my makeup. A change to my makeup routine is a necessary pleasure. Sweltering heat, rising humidity, and icy blasts of air conditioning don’t exactly make the best conditions for the cosmetics I use in the winter and spring. And while there are a lot of beauty
ARIES – Mar 21-Apr 20 You’re on fire this week, Aries. Ideas are sparking left and right. Don’t forget to slow down before you burn out. You want to showcase energy without creating chaos.

Truth is defined as a statement that agrees with reality. You are reading this article. That statement is true because it agrees with reality.

By Joseph W. Smith III Last week, your Webb movie critic covered “Fifty Years Ago in Film” — prepping for my upcoming talk on that topic at Brown Library: 5:30 p.m. on 7/31. Trotting out the 10 biggest box-office hits from 1975, we briefly discussed the top two — Jaws and One Flew Over the

This week, I am feeling reset, refreshed, and rejuvenated. We spent eleven wonderful days at the river for a staycation over the 4th of July. We couldn’t have had a more perfect week. The weather wasn’t bad at all. We had a few storms throughout the week, but none lasted long. It was hot every
Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s … what?! Another Superman??? Yes, summer 2025 offers yet one further iteration of the beloved Big Blue Boy Scout; and it’s no surprise if viewers can’t keep count of actors who’ve played the Man of Steel — going all the way back to
