I'm sometimes charmed by that minor talent Joyce Carol Oates, but when she puts on her Great Author suit I think one should point out that it doesn't fit.

I have this problem where the more people agree with me, the more worried I get that I'm wrong about something 🙃🤣

I guess I just don't like Christopher Nolan that much. I would give the new movie a C+.

"The dramatic art is particularly satisfying for any writer with a polemical bent; and I am at heart a propagandist, a tremendous hater, a tiresome nag, complacently positive that there is no human problem which could not be solved if people would simply do as I advise."

K and I have watched about half of the Columbo episodes in the first run. Many are still as good as anything you can watch on TV.

Wife and I are seeing Ben Folds together for the first time in a couple days.

We both loved his music and saw him live before we met, but somehow never saw him together until now.

Very excited to see what he plays!
