Surviving a Year* of Unemployment
Independence, Interrupted Some people thrive on uncertainty. They like the idea of not being tied to a schedule, not answering to anyone, not being locked into a 9-to-5. For them, that kind of freedom is the goal. The ability to improvise, to pivot, to take each day...

She Shook Me Cold
The party sounded terrible, but I let Mike talk me into it over the phone. I imagined his face: square jaw, square head, and huge square glasses. I hadn't talked to Mike since high school and we didn't part on the best of terms. He probably heard about Jennifer and...

Getting Settled In
As part of our move to Santa Fe last December, we were looking at a layout that didn't have a guest bedroom per se, as such. We did have a sort of oversized room of no particular function (the old owners had used it for an office and had a pool table in it). I think...

Red Sonja
Red Sonja (2025) Well, Late P Brooks, Ted S and even Pie commented on this doozy, so this film goes first from the bag of suggestions! I watched this with my daughter, it is a decent sword and sorcery pic, with some random woke lines thrown in. My personal favorite line was when Red Sonja told the bad guy that one of his sins was...

Snack food nostalgia
So Fox ran an article talking about 10 snacks from the '80s and '90s that people miss and want to come back. Personally, I found the list a little dubious, with the exception of Butterfinger BBs and Doritos Salsa Rio. You can find the article here. So what say you,...
Midway through March Friday Afternoon Links
Well, that beer was definitely not an IPA. The talk of downtown on St. Patrick's Day was the alien action taken. "Iconic". All the comfort of Lego in the form of a Croc. Barrens chat hardest hit. Is it wrong of me to think that this is being celebrated through Korea?...
