I managed to make it to Jeff’s reading/signing
at the Boston Borders last nite. The event ran
about an hour and a half – which is about how long it took me to get there – not counting the time it took me to get lost and found trying to find the bookstore. City driving in ...

The Television event of the year? I think
not. Highly anticipated – certainly. Highly good? Not. I
managed to get through several of the “mini-sodes” that the re-do of the Prisoner (AMC TV) was chopped up into last nite and eventually fell asleep, waking up as the first ...

Hmmm. I’ll be giving my take on this
tomorrow and am very interested to see how it
goes tonight. As most of you know, I’m generally not in favor of do-overs (not in chess, not in checkers, not for tv and not for movies; maybe, sometimes, if I’m playing a not-serious game of ...

Turns out that my symptoms of late may
be due more to Welbutrin withdrawal than they are
to the flu. No one told me I needed to taper off the W – and I wasn’t needing it (quitting the cigarettes and down to between two and four a day at this point, from 1.5 packs a day – woo ...

I’m still taking it slow – I can’t
seem to muster the energy to work at anything
for more than about 30 minutes or so. Physical, mental, doesn’t matter. I get this wave of exhaustion and I’m ready to lay down and take (another) nap. Hopefully I’ll feel ...

Finally done. It took 5 trips to the
storage unit, two trips to the dump and two
trips to the new apartment. Exhausted. Collapsing. Wonder if the artificial enzymes derived from the last of our clothes have done us any good or have hastened the end… (Paraphrased from JW ...

I don’t know exactly what I have –
chills, muscle & joint aches, a persistent cough (not
dry, fortunately), general malaise and extreme mental confusion (not to mention irritability that Karen will be more than happy to attest to). I suspect that it was brought on by the ...

After writing my own brief impressions of last
week’s premiere of V, I went and read some
other reviews. Almost to a critic/blogger they said things like “intelligent sci fi”, rousing science fiction tale, the original was good science fiction, etc., etc. Which made me ...

We’re just about finished with the move. I’ve
got another day of moving last minute stuff to
the new apartment (three or four trips with the jeep) and a few last minute things into the storage unit. I’ve also managed to get the PC set up, presided over the re-install of ...

Odd Gods of the Galaxy permitting) I will be
hooked back up to the internt.

We’re mostly out of the old house and
mostly into the new place. (You try cramming a
3 bedroom house into a 1 bedroom apartment, lol.) I will be without internet access until Wed, November 11th, at which point regular broadcasting will resume.

We’re fully into the move this weekend –
and I’ve already hurt myself, lol. I’m going to
be carrying and packing and moving the office, so it is unlikely that I’ll be online until Tuesday of this coming week.
