It will be small, and somewhere that I can hide easily, but I definitely want to get it. I'm just not sure whether I want it to be an actual swan, or an origami swan. I do miss that swan so much though. She was my buddy! She kept the geese away, she would follow me around the lake in my kayak and paddle-boat, and she…

I know that they're arbitrary, but Jack Huston never getting a single nomination for his brilliant portrayal of Richard Harrow is a fucking travesty.

The thing I am having a problem with regarding Kathy Durst's disappearance is that the doorman said he saw her the night Robert said he dropped her off. The school also reported speaking to her Monday morning. Now unless Durst paid off the doorman and hired a woman that sounded like Kathy to make that phone call,…

I have been reading the book, but am saving the rest of it for when I recover from my surgery at the end of March. I am so looking forward to the documentary when it airs on HBO next month. And I really want to read the book by David Miscavige's niece, who defected from Scientology and was disconnected from her entire…

I didn't even think that "Wolf" was Scorsese's best, but DiCaprio's performance really made that movie. That Quaaludes scene was just incredible. I'm a wee bit too young to have been around for lude abuse, but my former party animal mom saw it and she said "yeah, he had that down to a T."

That performance made me cry. Full on break down in sobs. She owned that role.

You're making me want a tattoo too! I've been thinking of getting a small white swan tattoo, in memory of the swan that I took care of during the summer of 2013. She was killed by Michigan DNR last winter and has left a hole in my heart.

Haven't been really watching much new stuff lately. Dealt with doctors all week long and finally got my surgery scheduled for March 25th, which is three weeks later than it was supposed to be. But I guess I can't complain, because I'm lucky that they will do this particular surgery on someone of my age at all.
Midnight…

I started reading it, but am saving it for when I will be recovering from surgery next month. Has anyone read the book by Miscavige's niece, who defected?

That narc-anon program is completely insane and has actually killed people. They place you in ridiculously hot saunas for hours until you have dark ooze coming out of your pores, and they refuse to give you any medication, even insulin if you're a diabetic. Last I've heard, the death toll was at five.

There was an article a few months ago about a woman who they wanted to "disconnect" from her son, because her son wasn't a true believer. After his suicide attempt and other erratic behavior, they told him he should be in a mental institution. You know, the place with the psychiatrists, who are the enemies of…

The Jehovah's Witnesses are doing the same thing as the Catholics in that regard.

I never said it was my family.

My wife doesn't watch this show regularly, but she watched this episode with me and that ad just made her skin crawl.

That would be an interesting way to play it, but she was talking quite explicitly sexual with the CIA agent she was babysitting for, wasn't she? That she likes older guys, and that's why Phillip is even approaching her in the first place?

I have had to escape dinners like that before. I felt their pain big time.

Happy birthday and sto lat, as we Poles like to say.

I just got a call from my surgeon's office. They're pushing back my surgery until March 25th. It was supposed to happen on the 4th, when my wife is on spring break. Now it is happening when she is not only in school, but also has a presentation that day that she cannot miss. And she has clinicals the next day, at a…

I lost it in the least healthy way possible, but it's still gone so I'm not complaining. Being 105 lbs. again is quite nice, even if I am swimming in a lot of my clothes.

I'm waiting on word of Roger Waters' new album. He's been working on it for awhile, but no release date as of yet. I have been listening to the Rush Time Machine tour album to get myself psyched for the concert in June. I love that somewhat reggae take on Working Man that they do so much. Also, to The Who's Tommy.
