You know, not a lot of interesting things happened last week. We had a retirement party for someone on Friday. That was nice. There was a funny bit of video done for it, but I did not appear in it. By design. The fact that I did not appear in it, did not detract from [...]

On Wonkette, I read a letter from a former editor/reporter of the Washington Post, expressing his sympathy to the paper, on their loss of the suddenly beloved Ronald Regan.

Sunday night I only got two hours of sleep. Not unusual for me. What was unusual was how poorly I handled it yesterday. I was so tired, I was weary. It was like I’d just taken a Benedryl or something. I could not keep my eyes open. I attended a training class until 12:30 and [...]

What follows is a completely accurate, and 100% true, account of the conversation that took place between Louise and myself last night, during the credits of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban at the IMAX Theatre.
