Ten Things

OK, for a couple of weeks now I’ve been tagged by a couple of people to share 10 things that you may not know about me. So…here goes:
1. I don’t like movies that involve death or violence. (The only exceptions would be movies like Star Wars, Indiana Jones, superhero movies, etc…but even those cross the [...]

In Defense of My Pick-a-Pile

It has come to my attention that there are some who feel that my previous pick-a-pile posting did not feature anything that constituted a true “pile”. In reviewing said pick-a-pile, I can understand where they are coming from. There were only a few items on the table, after all, and it didn’t take [...]

True Confession #8564

I need to confess something — it’s nothing profound, and rather embarrassing. It’s probably not something I should admit to, but I’m going to anyway:
I’ve got a thing for local cable access TV.
Have you ever caught any of the shows on it? Basically, the beauty of cable access is that ANYONE can create and broadcast [...]

I Am the Zombie

In any given social setting right now, I am easy to spot. Let me tell you which one I am:
