"I happened to look at Instagram yesterday and came across a posting from a young woman who used to go to my church. She and her husband stopped coming, and I lost track of them.

"Wow. I once tried a fanfic for Homicide: Life on the Street, but never finished it. It was a crossover with another Baltimore-set show, Roc, a sitcom that later became more of a dramedy about working man Roc Emerson and his family -- devoted wife…"
"Thanks for this, Baron. I haven't seen this in maybe 50 years."
"Here goes, and this really doesn't convey everything I feel:
Randolph Mantooth didn't inspire me to be a firefighter; he inspired me to become a writer. When I was a kid, I made a fitful stab at writing an Emergency! spec story. I never finished it,…"

"I'm traveling so I will say more later, but this is a punch to the heart. My Facebook is blowing up with posts from people all saying "Because of him, I became a firefighter / EMT / first responder."
That's a great legacy. "

"I concur, J.D. I saw Supergirl over the weekend and liked it just fine. Some of the criticisms I saw in other reviews seemed either out of left field, like the lighting being so dark you can't tell what's going on (not true, at least not to my…"
"Irritatingly, I saw a couple of headlines describing Louise Lasser as "Woody Allen's wife", as if she didn't have an identity and career of her own."
"I recall reading author Richard Wright's autobiography Black Boy when I was a teenager, and in one passage he describes at great length his desire to graduate from school garbed in long pants. In the culture of the times, circa the 1920s, shorts…"
Happy Independence Day!Happy America's 250th!And in the spirit of patriotism, I call your attention to a moment in Captain America: The Winter Soldier that put a lump in my throat when I happened to run across it a year and a half ago:
"I've seen Michael, the biopic, but not this documentary; on the other hand, my son has seen this documentary but not the biopic. I'm not in a rush to see this documentary because I pretty much know what it tells us; my son is not in a rush to see…"
"I finally got around to reading Gotham City: Year One, another Tom King miniseries that plays with characters, placing them on the edge of continuity. Here, it posits how the city turned from a paradise to a crime-ridden dump, throiugh a…"
"On Father's Day, the Regal movie theater chain offered a 25th anniversary screening of Ocean's Eleven, so we went. I've seen it many times but not on a big screen since it debuted. It's as thrilling as ever, sweeping you along with all the nonsense…"
"I am reading Swamp Thing 1989, and picked up issue #3 today but haven't cracked it open yet.
I haven't read the original run since those issues were published. I well remember the controversy that led Rick Veitch to leave the book, which was…"

"Oh, did they think they were supposed to spend Mother's Day with their mothers and leave their wives out of it?

"We did not really celebrate Father's Day this year. But we attended my grandson's 2nd birthday party on Saturday, which was even better!"
"Several times in my life I have known men who got in hot water with their wives for not fêting them on Mother's Day after having their first child."
