Movies:

    Just saw "Meet Joe Black" for the seventh or eighth ninth time. Love this flick. RANT: What the heck was wrong with critics? The wordplay in this flick is delightful. Twelve Monkeys - Brad Pitt again. Is this a trend? What Dreams May Come - heavily panned, yet one of my favorite flicks Fisher King - gotta love Michael Jeter Big Fish - so much fun! Dogma - Hilarious! Wizard of Oz - click your heels... Smoke Signals - always makes me laugh, then cry Always Raising Arizona - have probably seen 25+ times - favorite quote comes at the end: "And it seemed like . . . well, our home. If not Arizona, then a land not too far away . . . where all parents are strong and wise and capable, and all children are happy and beloved. I don't know. Maybe it was Utah."

Television:

I have to admit I'm a hardcore "Everybody Loves Raymond" fan. I'm excited to learn Brad Garrett has a new series on Fox. It's called 'Til Death. The premise is a married couple who live next door to a newlywed couple. They compare their lives and relationship to the newlyweds -- at least that's what I think it's about.

Hobos on Christmas Morn

My First Book Signing

Books-A-Million hosted my first book signing Friday. The book is an anthology containing one of my stories (rather than my own book) so it was sort of like cheating. Maybe not cheating, but a dry run ...

Clara Chandler Takes On Yellow Jackets

I stood in my mother's kitchen one summer's day in 1971, pouring myself a glass of milk, when I heard a soul-piercing scream coming from the back yard. It terrified me so badly that I dropped the glas...
