Chang chang changitty-chang shu-bop, that’s the way it should be! (Thoughts on GREASE at 45)
Yesterday we saw Grease at a Fathom Events screening, for its 45th anniversary. Wow. I saw Grease in its original theatrical run, back when I was six or seven (depending on when it was out). I went with my sister, and I … Continue reading
Behold the Ritual Clearing of the Tabs
Yup, it’s that time again: When I look at Chrome and realize, “Wow, I have a lot of tabs open to stuff.” :: On the oldest book in the world printed with movable type, and it’s not the Gutenberg Bible: The … Continue reading

Ho! Ho! Ho! to the bottle I go To heal my heart and drown my woe. Rain may fall and wind may blow, And many miles be still to go, But under a tall tree, I will lie, And let … Continue reading
Sighing towards Gomorrah
There’s a particular type of response from Gun Enthusiasts* that you’ll run into each and every time there’s a mass shooting in this country (which means, you can see this response each and every day, if you look for it, … Continue reading
