While in Hong Kong, I was reminded of one of my favorite shows ever. That being BattleStar Galactica (the new one). So well written, acted and just overall grand intensity. It was a show that I looked forward to watching each week. Although, I must admit, that […]
Despite my slight love of fog, I almost titled this bit “how the fog did us in.” Then I thought about it. The fog didn’t do us in necessarily. It may have actually helped see the light. Let me backtrack. I like fog for its eerie texture and […]
Sometimes I want to write a letter to the powers that be to let them know that I would be ok with the world being normal for once. Last year, when we headed off to South Africa everything seemed more or less normal. Well, as normal […]
