Should There Be a Code of Ethics for the Dead?
A little over a week ago, I wrote a really long post about Bodies: The Exhibition. Since then, I have received many, many comments about the post usually in the form of an email. Most of them were positive, a few not so much. Here’s the deal. About three years ago, there was something in…

Bush T-Shirt: Take 533
A little over week OK, I received a phone call from the producer of the Rachel Maddow show asking for my address and email address. I obliged. On Thursday evening, when Toby Joe and I got back to the apartment, I had a letter waiting for me. It was from Air America Radio. Enclosed was…

Beaner is Twenty-Eight
Yesterday, was Toby Joe’s birthday. He’s now 28. For a little more than a month, I will be only 3 years his senior. Every time Toby Joe has a birthday, I want it to be spectacular. And every time I feel like a failure because, well, that’s impossible. But I could make it semi-spectacular, you’d…

Harold Pinter’s Speech
Rachel Maddow brought this one to my attention this morning. It’s Harold Pinter’s Noble Peace prize acceptance speech. He spoke about America quite a bit. Some of it is bound to hit a nerve or two.

Armed and Dangerous.

While I realize that not everything is about me nor should everything be about me, I find it almost impossible to not think selfishly sometimes especially when it concerns my biggest, most irrational fear. People say…

I Can See Dead People
Tonight, Toby Joe and I are heading down the South Street Seaport to see Bodies: The Exhibition. I’ve been interested in seeing this for quite some time. The idea fascinates me. I’ll be sure to report back later.

You So Can Buy My Love, Mr. Dempsey.
I just hit an all time low. It seems that I made the mistake of admitting to the designers I work with that I have an unexplainable crush on Patrick Dempsey. Oh, to have him offer to pay my dry-cleaning bill after spilling wine on mother’s white leather fringe jacket circa 1981. Teenage date- rape…
