Why do Bonefish Grill servers wear chef garb? If you sit and think about it (like I did this evening while eating there), it gets weirder and weirder.
Why was I mailed TWO copies of Time Life's new bullriding retrospective? Sure, I AM going to watch it, but how did they know that my ex-brother-in-law was once a cowboy? Seriously, he was. Man, I need to write about THAT sometime...
I think as I continue to convert my rather large VHS library to DVD, I'll give away the VHS stuff to whomever I think might want it. Tonight, I dubbed a 1991 British documentary about the band Genesis. Pretty good stuff until Peter Gabriel left...
The Red Sox re-hired Theo Epstein. Man, now if they could just swing a deal for Coco Crisp...
Brian Cagle's film premiere at the Hunter last night was a resounding success. I was VERY encouraged to see the STANDING ROOM ONLY crowd, the wide mix of folks who turned out to pack the room, the reception Brian got afterwards and to hear the great questions people asked during the Q&A session. I will be posting pictures of the event this weekend and writing about it in next week's Pulse.
...Speaking of The Pulse, I am sketching out plans for a new column by yours truly. It will be slightly different than my previous column, but no less browraising. I miss the abuse, I suppose. And, according to your e-mails, some of you miss me.
Today, I (finally) picked up the crib Melissa and I put on last summer layaway and paid off just before Thanksgiving. Seeing as we were expecting a baby when we picked it out, but have since lost the baby, it was a difficult trip to make. Sometimes, when you think you've gotten over something, you really haven't. Hopefully, we'll have new, better news soon.
