So I get the enviable job of deciding just how Sybil is going to entertain herself during her furlough.
And what a job. There have been some great suggestions. Everything from heavy drinking to adopting livestock.And I’m loknig forward to see what is suggested in subsequent week. But this week’s challenge will be:

Raise your hand if you wanted to shout out that you’re a Flintstones’ kid. C’mon, you know you did.
And if you did, great. But this has nothing to do with your bone density or overall health, though I’m always glad to hear when others are in good spirits…except when I’m not glad to hear anything. Anysegue, Vitamin Tramp is a Texas-based band fronted by Ralph Thompson and Dave Novak.

With the presidential elections only 3 weeks away, the media landscape is ripe with political debate, and spin, and re-spin.

The Tony awards, indisputably the most important night for the Broadway community, had its lowest viewer rating in history this year. This might not come as a surprise to many, but I, as an aspiring member of the Broadway community, am a little disappointed.

I was saddened by the news today that Charlton Heston had passed away at age 84. While his politics have been at times controversial, and in later years he’s been lampooned for his part in the gun lobby as president of the NRA, it’s hard to deny this great man’s contributions to the world of film.
