This has been a painful day to go through. The media coverage was hard enough to take.
Several of my friends read this in Comicopia back then. I wanted to share it here as well:


March 1980: In a few months, I'll have my Bar Mitzvah. For now, we went as a family to New York City. We had friends of the family there, friends my parents made during ( Read more... )

(Don't worry... this isn't my last words. Not for many more years... I just wanted to update my journals -- and I had deep thoughts when I did (as I often do):

There's often talk about being bullied as kids. I was constantly bullied from Grade Three on. I was a creative, imaginative and precocious (I won't be self-centered and say too bright) kid, ( Read more... )

 After 6 years I have a throat cold.

Because of it my voice sounds strange. At least no one will mistake me for a women on the phone. They are surprised by my current Blues-style voice though.

One of my friends commented about me being elsewhere and I discovered that my last post here was in March of 2015! Much has happened to me since then, good and bad:

- As I told my friend, I've been at working on my author's platform. I have my Author Fan Page on Facebook. (There's also a mailing list. If you aren't on FB, no problem. Send me a ( Read more... )

 I don't like Internet ordering groceries (especially for just 3-4 items) so I went out this morning.

Not surprising Montreal  is lousy ae snow cleaning; I got jammed in a snowbank. After someone got me out I went to the Cote St-Luc side of my street, which is better maintained.and got what I needed.

 Gleeks rejoice!  Last night (Friday) was the final season debut.

Most of the songs I didn't care for (Ariana Grande? Puh-leez!), but re-doing the video for Take on Me always makes me wistful. This entry was originally posted at http://jeffthoth.dreamwidth.org/24187.html. Please comment there using OpenID.

Get in on the ground floor as a backer and get it as an ebook or paperback. High-level backers can even see their names in print!

 I watched my recording of this week's show today and I was floored:

This was the second week of the final 10, where each one individually is paired with an all-star (a past competitor). This week one was paired with Courtney Galliano. I remember seeing her compete.

Nigel mentioned that she is now battling multiple sclerosis. More and more people are ( Read more... )

First and foremost, that a youngster (31) dies is tragic. There will be an autopsy, but he abused narcotics in the past; I suspect they're the cause now.

This will also impact the show (secondary to the loss). Finn Hudson was studying to be a teacher, and there was the ( Read more... )
