should I blog about ‘Mad Men’?

I don’t have a real sense of how many serious Mad Men fans there are here. If I posted some reactions to Mad Men on an episode-by-episode basis, is this something a bunch of people here would be interested in? Is there a cadre of readers here who would like to discuss Mad Men after … more…

not my best day ever

Users at Facebook who try to click through to posts at FlickFilosopher.com are suddenly encountering this message: Of course there is absolutely nothing here that constitutes abuse by Facebook’s standards, or by any other.

Buzz, Reddit, and Fark — to the bottom of each … more…

classic ‘Doctor Who’ blogging all screwed up

I know. I’m behind in my classic Doctor Who blogging. I should have posted “Spearhead in Space” last week, and then somehow I promised both “An Unearthly Child” and “The Ark in Space” today. How did that happen? I do understand how calendars work, honestly. Anywhere, here’s the revised schedule: June 27: Spearhead from Space … more…

No one could have predicted that my Wii balance board would end up being the most expensive doorstop ever.
