Update: I guess I know what I’m doing this week…

I had obviously put my all my library holds on suspension while I was off work. I set them to restart last Thursday, knowing I'd be in today to pick up the ones that came in. So of course waiting for me this morning, with one week to watch: Archer, the Complete 3rd Season…

Monster of the Day #528

Why no, there was no readjustment after returning to work after two weeks. I feel as fresh as a daisy. Of course, the snow-laden streets that saw my little car slewing all over the place were a plus. On the other hand, the snow waited until B-Fest was over, so I shouldn't complain. How…

T(ween) Fest 2013 details…

Still recovering from B-Fest (if I go there another 10 years, I'll be a 60 year old attendee!), but thought I'd toss out some details on this year's T(ween) Fest. The date is Saturday, April 27th. As of now, it's looks like it will be at Sandy's house again, in Rockwall outside of Dallas.…

Chad Jones’ 2012 B-Fest Diary

Editor Ken: Profound apologies to Chad, who worried about the lateness of his piece--see the first sentence below--only to have me a) ask to hold it for B-Fest 2013, and b) then forget to post it. Still, with B-Fest 2013 occurring this weekend, it's not a bad time to check out one man's impression…

Monster of the Day #626

Sarah is menaced by Dolly Parton's mummy.* [*Unfunny, thuddingly obvious and references 30 years out of date. Welcome to Jabootu!] 'Jokes' aside, this  is my single favorite Doctor Who adventure ever. The newer stuff is magnitudes higher on the sophistication scale, but this right here is Doctor Who to me.

B-Fest next week….

It feels silly to say this, considering how inactive I've been, but if I seem even more out of touch than usual for the next, oh, ten days or so, it's because it's time to get ready for B-Fest. I've waited way too long to get started, so my 'hospitality' is going to be…
