My friend Pam loves animals. Bugs. All forms of life*. Even does Bird Rescue. All very noble and compassionate. She would willingly make various forms of sacrifices at any and all times, just for the sake of showing common courtesy to the smallest, tiniest life form (again, *). So, whenever there’s an animal in someContinue reading “What Would Pam Do?”

About Those Missing Episodes…
About Those Missing Episodes… For decades, we Doctor Who fans have had to live with the knowledge that in the early 1970’s, the BBC had a practice of destroying tapes of programs to make room in the warehouse, as space was limited. So, of the approximately 253 eps of Doctor Who made in the 1960’s,Continue reading “About Those Missing Episodes…”
Una dia importante en Espanol!
I just marked my 125th straight day doing Spanish on Duolingo. An unbroken streak. I’m sure my friend Lou is working on my statue at this very moment. I seem to go through phases as I continue down this path. There are days when things go remarkably smoothly, like yesterday. I made a mistake hereContinue reading “Una dia importante en Espanol!”
Suicide Squad 2- Electric Boogaloo
It really couldn’t have worked out any better. Some right wing nut job does a deep dive into old tweets of James Gunn and creates juuuust enough of a mountain out of a molehill that results in Gunn getting fired from Disney. Warner bros. is quick enough to finally make a smart decision in theirContinue reading “Suicide Squad 2- Electric Boogaloo”
He’s Back.
Certain times of the morning, during certain times of the year, we are observed. One notices this when standing at the back door in our kitchen and looking out the window. The glare of two large mysterious eyes. A trick of the light? Most probably. Although I can’t see what’s reflecting what where. Or why.Continue reading “He’s Back.”
The New Personal Spas
My wife and daughter love to sit in a pool in the summer. When the kids were little, we had a membership to the local pool for one or two years, but it was like $450 a year for membership, or some crazy number, just for three months of access. And schedules being what theyContinue reading “The New Personal Spas”
Prepping for Heat…
So this is being posted on Tuesday morning, the 25th, and having now received all the various hot sauces, we are planning to do a Facebook live video of this very special, remote, non-sanctioned, amateur version of Hot-Ones this coming Saturday the 29th at around noon. The thought was that I’d also load the videoContinue reading “Prepping for Heat…”
End of the line…
This was in the early ’80’s and I was still at the Academy. There was some type of event at school which necessitated me dressing like Jake Blues, one of the Blues Brothers (black suit, tie, shoes, pork pie hat, white shirt, sunglasses). As you do. My friend Jim was of course dressed like Elwood.Continue reading “End of the line…”
The BBC and Doctor Who “Special Editions”
Fool me once with a Special Edition, shame on me. Rereleasing stories for dodgy and incompetent reasons, shame on YOU. Back when the BBC was releasing all the various Doctor Who stories on DVD, they would sometimes RErelease a story with the justification that the material was “remastered” or perhaps better special effects had beenContinue reading “The BBC and Doctor Who “Special Editions””
The Family Trip to Hawaii
It had been 30 years since I was in Hawaii. I’d hoped it was still there…so I took the family… Where as it was just Lin and myself that went to Italy and Greece, this was a full family venture like DisneyWorld was. This seemed like a fairly laid back trip where everything pretty muchContinue reading “The Family Trip to Hawaii”
