Honda shot an ad with Matthew Broderick which is a distillation of the movie Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. If by any chance you haven’t seen it yet, click through and watch. I’ll wait. Click here to go see the commercial This ad makes me happy because it perfectly embodies the nostalgia of the film. I [...] I have a blog post about anxiety that I’ve been trying to write for two days. It is still a multiple-draft mess. The only solution is to put it down and move on. Hopefully I’ll be able to come back to it in a few days and pull the things I want to say into [...] There is a moment in the first date after which it is either an only date or the beginning of something more. I sat there in the restaurant, across from this guy I’d first spoken to only 30 minutes before. I’d recognized him as the roommate of a former boyfriend and gone up to introduce [...] I met Nancy Fulda when I was four years old and she was two days.

Instead of letting them start with the somewhat creepy stalkerish Superman of that film, I decided to start them with the [...] I first heard about Palace Beautiful when I met the author, Sarah DeFord Williams. It was one of those friend of a friend on the internet introductions. The things she wrote intrigued me and so when the chance came to meet her in person, I jumped at it. I discovered she was even better in [...] The Hugo award for Best Graphic Story was voted into existence for another two years. Howard and I are pleased to see the category survive because it allows Hugo voters to honor those who are putting art with their science fiction and fantasy concepts. We also hope that this will encourage all the Hugo voters [...] I know everyone must be sick of hearing about it, so I’ll keep my reactions brief and spoiler free: I was not sure I wanted to go, but I am glad that I went. It was like a beautiful retelling of a fairytale. I knew exactly how the story was going to go and how [...] |
