Second (Fifth) Best
I am not my son’s favorite. I am firmly in fourth place – fifth if you count Kitty. Most of the time I’m OK with it. He’s barely fifteen months old. I’m with him all the time, and that is … Continue reading

Spoilerific Review: The Man From Earth
Tonight, I would like to recommend a film that you’ve probably never heard of, but that (especially if you read my blog regularly) is really worth your time. Jerome Bixby’s The Man From Earth.
Three Creepy Effing Dolls
For as long as I can remember I have been creeped out by the entire concept of dolls coming to life. I refused to watch Child’s Play, disliked ventriloquism and even viewed Jim Henson’s The Christmas Toy with suspicion. Muppets … Continue reading
Blargh
I seriously do not need to be coming down with the Miserable Death Cold that Chip has had all week. I thought I might be coming down with it but it turned out that I was just desperately tired from … Continue reading

The Working Poor
Chelsea and Jared are very good friends of mine. We met when we were all homeless in Hollywood. We lived in the same cheap, awful motels. We ate the same scarce food. And we all got out, moved into real … Continue reading
Munchausen By Internet: The Case of Mike Feigen
Let me start by saying I am not currently involved in any of the Secular Homeschooling groups online, nor did I ever meet the person going by the name of Mike Feigen. But as the story has unfolded in one … Continue reading

Martin Luther King Jr Day
Like many, I have a quote from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to share today. It’s something I think of with the same kind of respect I have for some of the Dalai Lama’s teachings. And really, it all comes … Continue reading
My Tosh.0 Audtition (2.0)
Due to some technical difficulties on the Tosh.0 blog, people are having trouble seeing my audition. I think it’s because when I log in, it says that the video is still awaiting moderation. In any event, you can find it … Continue reading
An Update
I haven’t forgotten about this blog or wandered off. I am working on a project that I expected would only take two or three days. Expected. I was grossly mistaken, so I’ve worked my ass off for several days. Forgive … Continue reading
