    When Scream Factory announced they were releasing Jack's Back on Blu-ray, I never even heard of the flick before. After reading up on it and finding out it starred James Spader and had to do with a modern-day Jack the Ripper, my interests in checking it out with through the roof. After finally getting my hands on it and sitting down to watch it, I came out liking it quite a bit, but was surprised to find out that the actually Jack the Ripper material was actually just the catalyst for the actually story involving a man on the run from the law and trying to figure out who his brother's murder is. The movie does come back around to the Ripper subplot and it effectively keeps the murderer's identity a secret for most of the movie, but I would be lying if I didn't wish that it dealt more with the modern Jack the Ripper. Either way, the movie is still a fun 80s trip and I think you'll agree once you read on...

To best describe the argument, it is the conclusion that “nothing comes from nothing” as was stated by St. Aquinas, in other words God must exist because if there was nothing then we needed something to “call it into existence” so to speak. This coincides…

    I chose to listen to Stevie Wonder’s album called, “Innervisions” since it is known for its adulation. In order for me to fully assess the song, “Too High,” I must google the lyrics. After I examine the lyrics, it made me conclude that I will not like the song based off the lyrics. I tried to relate to some of the lyrics that are being said such as, I'm too high but I ain't touched the sky.” I only feel this way when I am dunking a basketball; you feel as if you jump so high, but you did not…
