Coming Clean
NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams apologized this week for a lie he’s been telling for more than a dozen years. He says he “misremembered” the incident in Iraq when he and his news team came under enemy fire and their chopper was forced down and protected by a platoon. Â …
Guts and Glitter
I wish I had the guts. The glitter bomb is the latest thing to go crazy on the Internet and it is simply the perfect method for getting revenge. …
Maybe They Thought We Knew
Have you been to a movie theatre lately? We prefer to go the VIP theatre route. Although it’s more expensive it’s also much more comfortable and people tend to behave better, overall. Even though there’s bar service, we haven’t had any candy-bag-rattlers, screen back-talkers or other disruptions while in VIP. …

Go Sports!
There’s a terrific episode of The Big Bang Theory where Penny allows Leonard to come over and watch football with her and her friends. Leonard, in case you don’t know, is a brilliant scientist who knows nothing about football, baseball, golf, rugby, hockey, cricket or probably even speed walking. He’s a geek. So he ruins the game by spouting general facts he learned from Wikipedia after plays are made. It’s a turnabout on sexual stereotypes and it’s funny. …
I Am Charlie
When I was a kid, I went through a worrier phase. I was anxious about another ice age after reading an article written by a scientist who predicted one. I fretted over the possibility of pandemics (although I didn’t know the word) and grew concerned over just about anything in the news that was out of my control.

Reality Bites in my (Ample) Butt!
Yeah, it’s that time. New year, new start. No more candy or junk food within my sight, please. It’s time to get to know more vegetables and reacquaint myself with the treadmill again, for more than just airing out clothing! …

Taking Stock and Moving On
The end of year assessment is so predictable, isn’t it? But what better time is there to take stock of where you’ve been, where you are and where you want to go? I don’t make resolutions like I used to but I still like to take a hard look at where things stand. Â …
