Gota friend request on Facebook from a guy from my old school days, and it was such a kick to hear from him! (Foodleking, it was PG - think curly hair and barely-restrained anarchy.) Facebook is more fun than you might think, if for no other reason than it allows you to stay tangentially connected ... Read more

First,the religion: My daughter Cleta, age 11, is now singing in the Salt Lake Children’s Choir against her will. As my mother dragged me into a children’s choir when I was a pre-pubescent, so I have yanked my daughter into a choir not of her choosing. I’m not sure if it’s revenge or what, but ... Read more

(Stillno politics. It's too soon. And Romney's dropping out. I don't want to start weeping.) So Languatron, having been exposed, has decided to expose me. So I thought I'd beat him to the punch.  Apparently, I'm Glen A. Larson, the creator of Battlestar Galactica, as well as such highbrow television as Manimal, Knight Rider, ... Read more

(Nopolitics today. There's just no good news, and I'm sick of being depressed.) For those of you who have followed the career of Languatron, the lunatic in Chicago who thinks everyone is really a Universal Studios spy out to get him, I have a special treat for you.  Turns out Languatron is Andrew Fullen, 5'7", ...

A2006 Chevy Suburban with all the doodads - leather interior, navigation system, Bose stereo, DVD player for the kids, and heated seats. Fun evening. Oh, except that McCain is now the Republican nominee and we're all friggin' doomed. I'm trying to get excited about cheering on Barack Obama. Can't quite get there yet. Really wish ... Read more

Irefuse to allow myself to entertain the notion that Mitt Romney could have a good day today.  There are some encouraging signs out of California and maybe Georgia, but neither is enough to stop the McCain Train from winning some critical winner-take-all states and roaring ahead in the delegate count. McCain has become inevitable, and ... Read more

I just finished reading Schulz and Peanuts: A Biography by David Michaelis. I picked up the book knowing that the Schulz family is unhappy with the finished product, and it wasn’t until the last third of the book that I realized why. Initially, I was immensely impressed with Charles Schulz. He seemed that rarest of ... Read more

Andthus endeth my Chicago adventure. Having told Languatron that I’d be seeing Wicked last night, I expected to hear tales of a knife-wielding lunatic being dragged out of the theatre lobby, screaming “I’ll get you, Glen Larson! And your little Moore, too!” Thankfully, reports of such a scene remain unconfirmed. Yesterday was a lot of ... Read more

It'ssnowing like a mother out there, so we're stuck in the hotel for the better part of the morning. barring a visit from Languatron, I have some time to describe the events of the day. I'm touring live theatres as a consultant for the City of Sandy, Utah, which is looking to build a theatre ... Read more

I'llwrite more tomorrow. But before I got to bed, I have this message for Mr. Andrew Fullen of the Chicago Ridge Dennys. ... Read more
