  • Dead poets.

    Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Robin Williams in one year. I think I feel a little like Ralph…

  • Didn’t you people learn anything from Lord of the Flies?

    So two guys who just love the Constitution and their own interpretation of the 2nd Amendment wrote a children’s book promoting the open-carry of firearms. This illustrated book follows the adventures of Brenna – a “typical 13-year old” – whose parents just happen to open carry firearms for “self-defense” while they are out and about… Continue Reading

  • Tea with Mr. Tumnus.

    A friend recently sent out a Facebook request asking for a new fantasy series to read – she had just completed The Hunger Games trilogy and was looking for suggestions.  It should be noted that this friend is significantly younger than me – significant meaning the world into which she was born has always had… Continue Reading

    I didn’t participate in high school sports.  Nor do I come from a sports-oriented family. My parents never had to brave the elements, or the expectations of other parents, to watch my sister and I in what surely would have been an embarrassing display of our mediocre to sub-par athletic abilities. We weren’t runners.  Or… Continue Reading

  • The remains of the day.

    I was doing laundry when the phone rang. My husband told me to turn on the TV.  A plane had hit the North Tower of the World Trade Center building in New York City. The Today Show came into focus just as the second plane hit the South Tower. And then the Pentagon. And reports… Continue Reading
