Of course you remember this scene from Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. It is probably the one most of us relate to, even if we don’t have had a red nose. In the original version, there was no follow up visit to the Island of Misfit Toys. Viewers were so taken by the forlorn Misfit […]
The social conservatives went bonkers over this (relatively tame – it was cold!) performance from the Broadway musical and Tony winning “Kinky Boots” featuring Pittsburgh’s own, Billy Porter. One person tweeted “Now I have to explain Kinky Boots to my kids. Thanks Macy’s.” Huh? If your kids are not old enough to understand drag, they […]
The Prompt: Keeping up with the Jones’ Tell us about the one luxury item you wish you could afford, in as much detail as you can. Paint a picture for us. I had to ask Ledcat to help me figure this one out. I have two answers. First, I would like a new laptop and a notebook […]
Thursday, November 28, 2013 How do you feel about the first blog post you ever wrote?/What is your greatest fear? This was my first post – written on December 29, 2005. – None of our nieces or nephews were yet born (eldest was on her way and born the following morning.) – I thought Santorum […]

Oh, this is wonderful!

Except he kills people (minus the chip). So there’s that. Still, this is a good episode and impossible to find online. […]
We all hate junk mail, yet through the mail slot it comes almost daily. So I scoop it up, sort it and don’t worry about it for another 24 hours. Except, the post man is not the only perpetrator. There’s a whole slew of folks who like to use my mail slot to deliver their […]
The Prompt: Tell us about the favorite dish or food that you simply cannot turn down. This is surprisingly difficult to answer. I suppose “brownies” is both most likely to be offered and most likely not to be turned down. I’ve loved brownies since I was a kid and met the “10 minute mix” box. Actually, […]
This scene is pretty powerful if you deconstruct how much artifice has defined Bev’s life. It is very sad.
