Do you remember where you were on New Year’s Eve 1999? I sure do! It inspired a fictional short story that I published a few years ago. The story still nagged at me, and through this process, I was able to explore it more deeply, create new characters and situations, and see a different, stronger version come to life. My protagonist deals with some harsh realities from the kitchen of a hotel ballroom 15 minutes to midnight. Given that I spent Y2K working in a hotel, this has been, to say the least, cathartic.

If I Were A Simpson
That's me as a Simpson! Wanna be a Simpson, too? Go to The Simpsons Movie site (opening 7/27) to create your own character. It's a lot of fun and a great way to avoid working at work. Better yet, create one for your boss!

When You Care to Send the Very Worst
Love this site's e-cards:
This one is particularly funny since the fella who played him lives here (It places the lotion in the basket.)!

Safe At Last!
I don't know about you, but I'm feeling a whole lot safer now that Paris is behind bars.

LA Times Cartoon re: V Tech Massacre
This cartoon by political cartoonist Ted Rall appeared in the LA Times on Friday. Too soon? I had a hard time finding it. I went to gocomics.com and paged through about 2 dozen with Virginia Tech as the cartoon's topic before I finally found it.

Blasting Cellulars
Wouldn't the world be a much better place if everyone put their cell phones on silent?
