TODAY, I'M THINKING FONDLY OF EUGENE DENBO
My wifes’ uncle passed away on Monday. Eugene was a sweet, sweet man who welcomed me into the family very early on — his whole M.O. was “My niece likes you, therefore I like you.” He was a lovely man, a devoted father, respected pillar of his community and a great husband and even though he was 80, it’s a sudden and unkind loss. He will be dearly missed. Wednesday...

COME IN, ORSON: Orson Scott Card on Gay Marriage...
Enders Game, the influential (and, I should add, well-written and exciting) sci-fi novel is being filmed by Summit Entertainment, and casting is underway. It’s a hard film to cast, as you need a stack of young kids (mostly boys) who can act, do credible action sequences and bring a certain amount of pathos to what is, at its core, a very sad story about children being forced to fight for the...

IT'S MY THING ABOUT SONDHEIM
I finished “Finishing the Hat: Finishing the Hat: Collected Lyrics (1954-1981) with Attendant Comments, Principles, Heresies, Grudges, Whines and Anecdotes” right before starting “Look, I Made a Hat: Collected Lyrics (1981-2011) with Attendant Comments, Amplifications, Dogmas, Harangues, Digressions, Anecdotes and Miscellany” because I wisely knew I would want to read them all as...

Death Comes Giffing.
demeulemeesters: i am so bored by this match i think i might be dead or perhaps dying I was gonna write some snarky tweet to the tune of “Parks and Rec is great, but why aren’t there any Seventh Seal gifs?” And I thought I’d better check before i hit send. And I did. I don’t care what anybody says, I like the internet.

comedynerdsunited: liezlwashere: Sure, you know Seth Morris as Bob Ducca, Rob Corddry from Children’s Hospital, Brian Huskey from those Sonic’s commercials,  and John Ross Bowie from Big Bang Theory & his appearance on NNF… but together, they are the improv group, Naked Babies. Can we all just take a moment to bask in the glory that is Seth Morris’s 90’s haircut? Also, this entire...

ARGUABLY THE BEST CHRISTMAS EVER
Would you like an hour of Christmas Music that won’t make you punch your family in the mouth?  Such a thing does not exist. BUT here’s the closest thing. A Spotify Playlist with an enchanting mix of old and new — The Waitresses, and Frank, and Sufjan Stevens’ take on one of my favorite hymns (yes. I have favorite hymns.) There’s some obvious ‘cool’...
