One Of The Best Early Gangster Movies


Gangster and heist movies took off as a genre back in the 1930s. While films such as The Godfather, Goodfellas and The Departed are still popular in 2017, they are relatively recent movies produced in an era where technology has advanced massively. Still, it was as far back as the 1930s when gang and mafia-related films first started to gain the attention of the public in the United States of America.
One of the best gangster movies of all time is Little Caesar. A 1931 American pre-Code crime film, it centred on a hoodlum who rises through the ranks of organised crime until he reaches its upper echelons. The film was actually based on the novel of the same name by William R. Burnett and is more popular than the book. Received well by the critics, Little Caesar aptly portrayed the social situation at the time and is worth a watch even now if someone wants to get a picture of what life was in the 1930s.
Tati’s World: Gennady “GGG” Golovkin – Canelo Alvarez Makes My Love/Hate Relationship With the Sport of Boxing Flare UP!




I have fond memories of my dad and me watching boxing on the weekends when I was younger. We’d watch old fights and new ones, compare our favorite boxers and discuss the different fighting styles. Back then, my father would watch them all, he had favorites in every weight class, but I preferred to watch the smaller faster guys because it made for a more interesting fight. As I grew up, I started watching less Boxing and more of the UFC because I saw how crooked the sport was becoming. I remember feeling dissatisfied after each fight, even the great boxers were disappointing. I remember feeling so upset with Mike Tyson after the “Ear” incident, or the Mayweather, JR. sucker punch to Victor Ortiz, that shit still pisses me off! All that drama in the ring and out, sullied the excitement of the sport for me. If I wanted to watch drama with a side of fighting, I could just watch the WWE or Jerry Springer.
The Neighborhood Watch: The Consequences Of Being Polite!


To Be Rudely Polite About It…
The only way to get people to be polite these days is to be rude about it. Then it seems that you can’t be polite without it quickly escalating into being mistaken for hardcore flirting. The only happy medium is to be a bit of a jerk.
I can’t stand people, especially children, that don’t say Please & Thank You! It’s a really simple way to acknowledge kindness but it can also get you more than what you asked for. One would think at this point in human history, common courtesy is just a built in behavior but it’s not. It’s more like a generational flaw at this point for so many. You can always tell if a person is just being rude or they truly just didn’t notice. But how many times have you been walking into a store and a person didn’t hold the door but they definitely saw you right behind them? I’m the jerk that’s not afraid to put them on blast and get loud…Thank you for holding the door!

Tati’s World: “National Sober Friends Day” Is Now September 15th of Each Year – So It Has Been Said, So It Has Been Done!


Did you know they have all kinds of “Days” to honor ridiculous things like April 30th Hairstyle Appreciation Day and March 10th Middle Name Pride day, but no Sober Friends day? I proclaim September 15th as “National Sober Friends Day!”
Sober friends are extremely important. This person is the physical representation of a drunken friend’s conscience. When all things in the drunk friend’s head goes to shit, this person brings out the pooper scooper. Sober friends have probably seen you at your absolute worse and still choose to hang out with you and if anything that deserves some praise, or maybe a trip to the therapist.
Will Beauty and the Beast Rule the 2017 Box Office?


When you look movies set to dominate the 2017 worldwide box office, there are beauties and there are beasts. How did Fate of the Furious make over a billion dollars while one of the best films of the year, Logan Lucky, bombed? I’ll tell you how: the public (as a whole) doesn’t give a damn about quality; it wants spectacle; it wants CGI cars being chased by a submarine; it doesn’t want (or at least need) Oscar-worthy storytelling.
People now look at movies and ask themselves: is it worth spending cash and seeing in theatre or can I wait and download it at home? It’s a sad state of affairs, but reality is that the public wants to see super heroes, Vin Diesel, and Disney characters on the big screen, while quality sits on the sidelines waiting and collecting awards. Right Moonlight?

The Neighborhood Watch: Dealing With Hurricane Irma!


Tampa Blessed, Florida Strong
“Irma is a MONSTER Hurricane and she is going to devour Florida, everyone is going to damn near die!” Living in Tampa, FL that’s actually pretty close to the media coverage I’ve heard every day for the last 3 weeks about Hurricane Irma.
Yes, Irma was a record breaking, huge hurricane. Yes, with a category 5, death and destruction will be on the menu. Yes, everyone was calling, texting or on Facebook asking if I’m ready to die? In America we have a fond way with sensationalism that in certain situations can be helpful. Making sure the severity of the situation is anticipated, I have no doubt that scaring the hell out of people to evacuate saved thousands of lives. In the places that were hit harder, my heart and prayers are for those who suffered the death and destruction of Irma.
The Sinatra File: This Week with Frank, #3


September 11th 1961. Things were coming to an end between Frank Sinatra and his record label of the preceding eight years, Capitol, and Sinatra couldn’t be happier. Fully immersed for more than a year in the amalgam of his own record label, Reprise, the singer couldn’t wait to fulfill the final recording project of his contract with Capitol, and while he was anxious to get the work over with, the album that would result would show no sign of rush on the part of the vocalist.
While his last album recorded for Capitol was a swingin,’ stompin,’ set of big band tunes, his third with arranger Billy May (Come Swing With Me!), his last album for Capitol would consist of tender, loving ballads and saloon songs, the songs Sinatra cemented his reputation on.
The album’s title: “Point of No Return.”

Tati’s World: Repeat After Me, I Can’t Stand the Washington Redskins!


Living the majority of my life in the DMV area you would think I have developed some love for the Washington Redskins, well I haven’t. I can’t stand the team and during the season I can’t stand the fans either. I feel like I have multiple reasons not to like the team and its fans.
How does the Skins keep getting great players but those players greatness never transfer over to the team? It’s like as soon as someone puts on a Redskins jersey they lose all their superpowers. Is the team cursed? Are the jersey’s made with kryptonite? What about those players that have better success as soon as they leave the team? What is it? How come I feel like no one else sees this but me? Every time the Skins get a new quarterback the whole city has to adopt the dude and hail him as the messiah. They got the guy on every cereal and pizza box, running to the store and buying every damn jersey! As soon as the season starts the guy has two great games and then it gets embarrassing.
Tati’s World: This Grief Thing…


In February of this year, my daughter’s father lost his life to depression. Having to come home and tell my 7 year old daughter, that her father died was the most difficult thing I’ve had to do in my life. It’s one of those moments that will stay with me forever. I can’t forget seeing the shock and grief on her face and feeling her little body shack with the force of her tears as I held her. I remember feeling so much sadness, anger and helplessness, just wishing I could bring him back for her.
My Ex and I had many disagreements and disappointments, but he was always a good person. When he passed people that knew our history asked me if I was sad?
