Cable/satellite TV is going to be so dangerous for me. Now that we have a TV that gets good broadcast reception, I keep finding fascinating programs on NPT at ridiculous hours of the night. (More about the TV later.) I still can’t have caffeine late at night. Even a small amount, like, say, the amount […]

My blogging seems to come in bursts. In fact, I’m writing several blog posts today (June 19) and then scheduling them to post once a day so I don’t clog anybody’s feed reader. But that’s okay. As long as I keep the crowd happy. Or indifferent. Last weekend was my sixth wedding anniversary. My handsome

A few days ago I made a startling discovery about one of my childhood heroes. Did you ever watch Kids Incorporated? It was a light-hearted show about kids who sang at a club called The Place. No, the premise didn’t make a whole lot of sense, but I loved that show. I watched it on
This week I have vowed not to watch TV. I have quite the history as a TV addict. Growing up as a latchkey kid, I always watched TV when I got home from school. At night I would watch reruns of decades-old shows like Get Smart and The Dick van Dyke Show with my dad.
