KIA 2014 Sorento | ©2013 KIA

Car Manufacturer: KIA Model: 2014 KIA Sorento Suggested Retail Price: Starting at $24,000 As a major fan of KIA vehicles, particularly the 2013 Sorento, I can safely say that the 2014 Sorento EX is the best car I’ve test driven to date. Improving on last year’s model (which was quite an impressive ride as well), the 2014 Sorento is perfection. Smooth, sleek and the kind of car that, if I were in the market for a new vehicle, I would snap up in a heartbeat. What makes the Sorento so fantastic is that it’s a very intuitive car, a very […]Read On »

The Horseman in SLEEPY HOLLOW - Season 1 | ©2013 Fox/Kent Smith

Pretty much everyone knows some version of the story of the Headless Horseman and the other story about Rip Van Winkle, even if fewer know that both were penned by the same writer, Washington Irving, in the early nineteenth century. Contemporary screenwriter Phillip Iscove decided to combine elements of the two stories and took his pitch to writers/producers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman at their K/O Paper Products production company. The result is Fox’s new series SLEEPY HOLLOW, Mondays at 9 PM. Tom Mison stars as Ichabod Crane, who in this version is responsible for the Horseman’s headlessness. A Revolutionary […]Read On »
