I get both amazed and agitated when I notice what seems to stick beyond the usual lifecycle of a few hours in this world of instant gratification and entitled ADD sufferers who have made sober-curiosity and mushroom/cannabis elixirs at $10 a can ubiquitous enough for even someone as seasoned as moi to be aware that … Read more
I’m thankfully not as invested as it sure appears an awful lot of otherwise respectable people seem to be in the apparent deep, dark secrets surrounding the life and death of Jeffrey Epstein, and in particular what notable people may or may not have been his friends, even if that may have been in the … Read more
At the risk of being redundant (yeh, I know, so out of character), it’s been a challenging weekend. I can’t begin to tell you how many people I know personally are somewhere between depressed and suicidal as a result of Friday’s scrawl, and yep, I do know a handful that lit off a few extra … Read more
If you have even the mildest case of TDS this hasn’t been a good week for you. On top of the theatrics and hysterics being played out in all-nighters in Washington, we got this breaking news late last night. NBC NEWS’ Rudy Chinchilla did about as fair and balanced a reporting as one could reasonably … Read more
Well, the Fat-scist-In-Chief up and did it. On an otherwise slow summer Saturday night the internet reverberated with the reaction to this proclamation of war.

When we first began musing just about four years ago, it was always my intention to merely incorporate such thoughts into their relevance to media and my life. But as any cursory search of any entertainment news aggregator this … Read more
I’m truly exhausted to the point where it is literally causing me physical pain, so try and cut me a little slack if my usual level of intolerance for poorly executed strategies is a bit enhanced. I’ll confess to being right up there with the level that a good friend’ surly, ego-maniacal and significantly unqualified … Read more
Back in the days when I had both disposable income and frequent travel, I was determined to squeeze in a Broadway show on every New York business trip of more than 48 hours. At one time the most prominent ticket broker in the theatre district just happened to be named Leblang’s Tickets, and an old … Read more
I’ll apologize up front to those of you who actually care that I’ve been even less than 100 percent than usual lately. My stomach issues have become more frequent and painful and it seems things that used to be ok are becoming more problematic. Last night, a piece of broiled salmon coupled with a sip … Read more
