The in-between spaces (on the passing of Prince)
One of the stranger parts of having been the kid in high school with very different interests from most everybody else is that whenever a prominent musician dies now, I can almost never join in the chorus of those who … Continue reading
Something for Thursday (Alan Rickman edition)
I hate that Alan Rickman died today. I hate that more than I hate that David Bowie died the other day, and I really hated that. I had something picked out for this feature, but I decided to postpone that … Continue reading
