A little tweetie bird has informed me that Vincent D'Onofrio is being booted from Criminal Intent, and that a main character (not him) is about to get murdered.

Worse, we won't learn the details until March.

The agony!!!

Holy crap! I missed my second Voxiversary!

By almost three months!

This can only mean I have been distracted because (choose one):

• my life has become a living hell the likes of which no one should have to suffer.
• my life has become a living hell the likes of which everyone should have to suffer!
• my life has become a living purgatory which a few people might have to suffer under certain circumstances.
• the earth stopped turning.
• the earth was turning with a hestitant grinding motion, which proved to be worn bearings.
• Vincent D'Onofrio showed up demanding money, or at least some coupons.
• I was buried under an avalanche of doorknobs.
• the Spanish fly didn't work.
• I realized after years of denial that Pikachu does not have Focus Fist.
• no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't fit the bottle inside the toy ship.
• Tyra Banks is even higher maintenance than you might think.
• I learned the Pope is not only Jewish, but shows up at Rotary meetings wearing gigantic lapels and a cravat.
• the double pneumonia I contracted after being caught in the rain at that Reds game took months to clear up.
• Buddy Guy keeps calling me asking where he can get one of those cool Tripwire "got integrity?" T-shirts.
• I only went to Washington, D.C. to visit, but I ended up ensnared in partisan politics, bureaucratic stonewalling, and unrelenting harrassment from the shoe-leather lobby.
• using Twitter to post every aspect of my personal grooming requires a serious time commitment.
• buying a product called "Rolex Viagra Stocks Cialis Luxury" can be a very, very costly mistake.

So, thanks for your patience and understanding. To get things under control, I will probably need a flashlight, an analog wristwatch, an assortment of small loudspeakers, and a street map of Decatur (Illinois or Georgia, it doesn't really matter). I'll let you know.

We'll miss you. So glad I got to see Peter, Paul & Mary in the early 90s. (Funny story about that show...some other time.)

Remembering 9/11/2001 as clearly as if it were this morning.

From 2007, recollection and reflection.
