My friend, talented comedian Jaye McBride, has taken to drawing caricatures during this pandemic. And right now Jaye’s current run in a series of artworks describing the typical “Karen.” You know the type, right? pic.twitter.com/n6g0PuLYnM — Jaye McBride (@jayemcbride) May 24, 2020 pic.twitter.com/nOJL9tB5nB — Jaye McBride (@jayemcbride) May 23, 2020 pic.twitter.com/4XTDhHW7aj — Jaye…

So, let’s get this Memorial Day weekend party started. And after you’ve enjoyed that barbecued steak on your home grill, take a moment to remember those who have passed on.

Read MoreThe “Three Word Movie” Game
I had fun yesterday on Facebook with a bit of a friend-participation game. It’s a challenge, a fun challenge at that. Take any movie, and try to challenge people to identify it. But you’re only allowed to use three words to describe the movie. And, as a tougher challenge, you’re not allowed to use any…
Read MoreHey, remember that 3D photo contest I entered this year?
God, it seems like a lifetime ago. I had this idea to enter some of my 3D film photos into this Austrian photography contest.

Read MoreSo I watched the new Snowpiercer TV series yesterday… woah…
I never realized I needed to watch a post-apocalyptic science fiction dystopian drama until … well … now. Snowpiercer is based on the Bong Joon-Ho sci-fi movie from a few years ago, which in turn was inspired by a French graphic novel. And from the show’s opening moments (which explains why everybody’s on a freezing…
Read MoreSo now it will be a rail trail in the Adirondacks, rather than a rail road…
Last October, I mentioned news of a possible resurrection of railroad service that was the old Saratoga and North Creek Railroad. There was a proposal by a California-based railroad company, United Rail, to take over the former SNCRR’s holdings and operate boutique train tours. That never came to fruition.
