I Mess With Texas, The Continuing Saga
Or, I've lost count how many times I've messed with Texas. The Mess With Texas Sign Mainly because I occasionally begin to think it might be OK down there, and then I remember: I've only ever really been to Austin. So I forget to pay attention. And then BS like this pops up. From the…
Read MoreNo. 5!
We're No. 5! We're No. 5! (I'll take it.) Not to brag or nuthin', but "The Law & Order: SVU Unofficial Companion" is now No. 5 on Amazon's TV show book list! Hurrah! Thanks to everyone who bought one … or 10 … or 20 (hi, mom!) If you don't have one yet, why not?…
Read MoreGood news, bad news
So, it's been one of those days. On the good side, I now have a new story up on podcast at the wonderful Well Told Tales. It's called "Can't Keep a Dead Man Down," so please head on over there and comment on how much ya liked it. (Or not!) On the less good side,…

I have seen approximately 5 episodes of season two, and no others. I have seen (I believe) all of the Capt. Jack Harkness episodes from "Doctor Who," and…
Read MoreTake the needle from the record
Thriller I had Thriller. Somewhere out there, 36 million (or thereabouts) did, or still do. I remember how it folded out in gatefold style (albums, folks, albums) to reveal Michael Jackson lounging in a white suit, black shirt (unbuttoned just slightly) and a tiger cub crawling on him. I can't say it was sexy, I…
Read MoreWhen smart people do stupid things
Are You F-ing Kidding Me? I seem to be surrounded by loved ones who, despite college degrees and a reasonable ability to dress themselves each morning, are doing the most godawful f-ing stupid things. First, I just had a visit from my friend Alan, who being English is about as bone-white as you can possibly…

Randee Can't say I'm keen on the tags (go to the page if you wanna see for yourself), or the spelling of the person who wrote it up, but you know, I won't fight the "definition."
