¡Feliz Día de los Veteranos!

In honor of all the people who have served in the American armed forces -- including two of my uncles -- I hope you all have a pleasant Veteran's Day.

¡Feliz Cumpleaños, Charlie Sheen!

AKA Carlos Irwin Estévez.

Born September 3, 1965.

He is one of my favorite cousin's favorite actors and one of the best parts of Machete Kills. Come to think of it, my middle brother and at least one female friend of mine were big fans of his otherwise dubious TV show Two and a Half Men.

He is not exactly one of my favorite actors but there is no denying the fact that he has made a big impact on the industry. I just wish it was a positive one.

Two and a Half Men: “I Called Him Magoo”

Remember that really creepy scene in Memento in which the lead character hired a blonde hooker to come to his motel room and pretend to be his late wife?

Now imagine that very same scene appearing in a prime-time TV show -- and then imagine it being played for laughs. Only the hooker in question is not a Caucasian blonde but an Asian brunette. And she is not imitating Charlie Sheen's dead wife but rather his still living ex-girlfriend. So of course, it is a lot less creepier...
