Earlier this month, I stumbled upon a Google Chrome extension that tells you when people unfriend you on Facebook.  Though not for the faint of Facebook friendship heart, I immediately found this concept awesome.  What a great way to have an idea if something you posted recently really offended someone […]

Last week I asked ESPN’s fantasy football analyst Stefania Bell whether I should start Corey Dillon on Antowain Smith at RB.  This week, I asked Steve Grogan or Hugh Millen at QB.  She seems to be ignoring me.  Incidentially, not sure how many people remember this, but Hugh Millen’s nickname […]

Quick thoughts on tonight’s NKOTBSB performance at the American Music Awards: NKOTBSB performance was choppy but riveting. I was moving my hips like “yeah!” Nodding my head like “YEAH!” (And that makes me larger than life). What happened to “Step 5” in “Step by Step?” Was it because Jonathan Knight […]

Every now and then when you’re on stage, you can hear the best sound that a player can hear.  It is a sound you can’t get in movies or in television.  It is the sound of a wonderful, deep silence that means you’ve hit them where they live. – Shelley Winters

After an operation on Friday and not being able to do anything but look at the ceiling, I finally have some time to update this blog with some news and notes. It was about the fourth time I’ve needed stitches in my life.  The first was when I was a […]

As you might have noticed, this blog has taken a turn in direction lately.  I was tired of what felt like boring and uninspired posts (see my book reviews) and wanted to only post things that I, if a reader, would be interested in viewing.  The number #1 quality I […]
