Zombieland

Oct 4th, 2009 by Will | 1

Last night (Saturday) was supposed to be a Dudes Night Out, and it kinda was, though Faheem bailed on us and timing was against us.  Regardless, Jeff, Dan, and I had a few beers, some dinner @ East Coast, and then caught the 10:25 showing of Zombieland.  OMG … loved the movie!  Probably has the [...]

OMG Sarah Furguson!

Oct 2nd, 2009 by Will | 2

Just saw in The Daily Reflector that Duchess of York Sarah Furguson is coming to G’vegas in May … OMG … now, how do I get myself into the “Power of the Purse” luncheon on May 5 so that I can see Sarah.  We have got a LOT to talk about!  I have a few [...]

Indigo Girls

Sep 28th, 2009 by Will | 1

Last night, Michelle, Anna, and I joined Wendy and Brent, and dearest darlingest Susan (plus pigeon Sam) at the Koka Booth Amphitheatre in Cary, NC, to see the Indigo Girls. We set up our chairs under some trees at the outdoor event, and I for one enjoyed the whole night. Lots of stuff from the [...]

Loving Melissa Etheridge

Sep 3rd, 2009 by Will | 1

I have been on such a Melissa kick lately! Wow … I think she’s one of the best at the rock ballad, and my favorite is “You Can Sleep While I Drive”
You know Ive seen it before
This mist that covers your eyes
You’ve been looking for something
That’s not in your life
My intentions are true
Wont you take [...]

What Wouldn’t Brian Boitano Do?

Aug 28th, 2009 by Will | 0

So did you catch the premiere episode of the new Food Network “cooking” show “What Would Brian Boitano Make?“  Cause here’s the thing: GAYEST show ever made for television!  I mean, wow, that Brian isn’t even bother to pretend to maybe not be gay anymore.

I scare-quote “cooking” because, well, I’m not sure you could really [...]

Book Review: Vast Fields of Ordinary / David Inside Out

Aug 17th, 2009 by Will | 1

While I was in Atlanta recently, part of a twice-yearly pilgrimage to a better land of tremendous food, good books, and fun people — but mostly just to get away and get some writing done — I took advantage of being so near to OutWrite and Brushstrokes to grab five or six of the new [...]

A Late Evening Lullaby

May 19th, 2009 by Will | 0

I know, Brandi sings about that “Late Morning Lullaby”, but we got to see her in concert on a lovely Friday evening, and every second of her time on stage was like a long, careful lullaby to me.  She was simply amazing, start to finish.  But I get ahead of myself.
We started the night in [...]

Last Week …

Apr 20th, 2009 by Will | 0

This semester is now fairly officially drawing to a close and while I adore my students I couldn’t be happier to be finishing this one off.  So much to do and every just means I’m that much closer to a week with Jackson and the Baby Mamas, my nephew’s HS graduation, and three weeks in [...]

Writing Day

Apr 10th, 2009 by Will | 2

I’ve decided, I think, that I must build a wall, a bit like the wall that PSB’s building on their new CD Yes.
Protection (prevention)
Detection (detention)
There’s no where to defect to any more
I’m building a wall
A fine wall
Not so much to keep you out
More to keep me in

But my wall is going to be to save [...]

Congratulations, Perversion!

Apr 7th, 2009 by Will | 0

Michael Savage is a douche, without the refreshing clean feeling after.  Just sayin’! But if he thinks that we’re seeing the “victory for perversion”, then I say, “Congrats, Perversion! I always knew you could do it!”  Viva la perversion!
