I haven’t been able to announce the full details of this just yet – most of what has happened has involved “behind the scenes” negotiations and the like – but today, I definitely want to share some of the good news with all of you. A few weeks ago, I was contacted by Kelly Grimaldi,…

Fortune cookie philosophies
The other day, I brought some Chinese takeout food over to my girlfriend Nicole’s place. It was the usual fare for a Chinese restaurant – entrees, egg rolls, and some fortune cookies. She told me she had previously enjoyed Chinese food over at P.F. Chang’s in Colonie Center, and that she was searching for a…
Read MoreCollarworld: Protecting Squee
Time flows slowly in Collarworld, the afterlife waystation for deceased pets who wait for the eventual reunion with their masters. But for Butterscotch, the calico cat, every day felt like a million years without her master. Butterscotch arrived in Collarworld when she climbed on a table, knocking over a candle that caused a housefire. Both…

I swear, it happened by accident. One night while I was at an event, I could have sworn I heard someone humming a melody from my memory. And instantly, I remembered the words. “Where, oh where, are you tonight?” The other person stopped humming. He looked at me. And he said the next lyric. “Why…

I’ve known Al Stewart for a number of years. He’s a point guard who played his collegiate basketball at Drake, and for the past four years he’s been one of the top players in every league in which he has suited up. I first met Al when he was playing for the Manchester Millrats of…

It’s a great pop song from the 1970’s, and it launched the career of one of the most popular pop duos of that era.

In terms of appreciation for my ’06 Chevrolet Cobalt SS, I’ve been doing something with it that I haven’t done that often with my previous two cars, the ’91 Pontiac 6000 or the ’05 Saturn Ion. I’ve taken it to the car wash more often than I have with with the “6” or with Cardachrome.…
Read MorePick my next “Royale With Cheese” movie!
Here’s how this works. The “Royale With Cheese Movie Club” is based on my having not seen the film Pulp Fiction until a couple of years ago. Yep – I saw it after everyone else in the whole wide world had seen it. So after that film, I added a few more films to my…
Read More“Amish Mafia” Episode Review: Amish Exorcism
Amish Exorcism. Yeah. I swear by all that’s holy, if I hear one note from Mike Oldfield’s “Tubular Bells” during this episode, I’m going to throw a pitchfork through my flatscreen. But it’s time once again for everybody’s favorite trashy faux-reality “docu-fiction” show, the show that mixes the Sopranos with the bucolic, pastoral world of…
Read MoreDream Window #6: The Beacon
Belief is the hard part. Understanding is the easy part. And somewhere inbetween those points is faith. Faith in God, faith in the world, faith in nature and all of its beauty. And part of me felt that a Dream Window honoring faith and belief in a higher power would be perfect for an upcoming…
