I hereby propose a brand new drinking game while watching Amish Mafia. A drinking game, as you know, takes place so that whenever a character does something on TV, you take a drink of some beverage. Example – any time Jack Bauer says “There’s not enough time!” on 24, take a drink. Whenever that girl…

I want to tell you the story of how this album came to join the rest of the playlist that I wish to take with me to the next world. As a Hamilton College student in the early 1980’s, I was fortunate to spend my time with the campus radio station, WHCL. During my time…
Read MoreHow to Spell at Stewart’s
Before I begin this little blog post, let me start out with this comment. I appreciate all the Stewart’s shops in the area. I appreciate that I can get food quickly and cheaply, and the cashiers are very nice and friendly. That being said… There seems to be a little problem with spelling at Stewart’s.…
Read MoreThe reclamation of a Dream Window
Normally, when I put my Dream Window art projects in charitable auctions, they’re bought, they’re appreciated, and I am comforted in the knowledge that these artworks are in new homes. And last year, I thought that happened with Dream Window 11: Saratoga’s Healing Waters, my photo of the waterfall adjacent to the Copeland Bridge in…
Read MoreThe forgotten Gene Kelly animated television special
Ah, Gene Kelly. One of the greatest actors / dancers in cinema. His films are classics. Singin’ in the Rain. An American in Paris. Anchors Aweigh. Jack and the Beanstalk. Wait… Jack and the Beanstalk?!? Yeps. In 1967, Gene Kelly worked with the Hanna-Barbera animation studio to craft a musical version of the vintage children’s…
Read MorePark Kurt Busch NOW, NASCAR!
You know what? I’m sick and tired of seeing athletes and sports figures abusing family members – whether it be spouses, children, significant others or the like. And I’m especially sick and tired of seeing the sanctioning bodies of these sports fumble their way through a mock investigation, maybe a suspension for a week or…

“This is supposed to be a safe place,” Bate the terrier barked. “And now I’m scared.” Vincent the tabbycat had no answers. All he knew was that the one thing Bate feared from the living world – the demonic fighting canine from the dogfighting ring, the same ring where Bate was used as “bait” to…
Read MoreBest of our TU Community Bloggers, February 19, 2015: Ten for Thursday
Is it morning yet? Have we seen any grass or flowers yet? Has a dove flown back with an olive branch in its beak? No? Well, I guess that means winter is still in our lives. But you know what else is in our lives? This recap of ten great blogs by ten great Times…
Read MoreAmish Mafia Episode Review: “A Church Divided”
With only eight episodes left until the Amish Mafia series finale, let’s see what’s going on in wacky Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Jeez, at this point in time, I almost expect to see Lebanon Levi and his Amish going to war with Doug Duevil and his Mennonites, to the point where they could cast Richard Beymer…
Read MoreK-Chuck Radio: Even more Armor-Plated Heart hits
I do these blog posts from time to time. They’re heartbreaking ballads and break-up songs, and I call them my “Armor-Plated Heart” songs. Songs that will bring your emotions to tears, and that none but those with armor-plated hearts will avoid crying all night. If you’ve had a rough Valentine’s Day weekend, these songs may…
