Run-DMC autograph
This is my most prized autograph. It is from all three members of Run-DMC. Reverend Run, Daryl “D.M.C.” McDaniels and the late, great Jam Master Jay. You can see that they autographed the door poster for me. I have it framed with my original ticket in the bottom right hand corner. I wasn’t able to…

Recommended Reads – The Alchemist
Paulo Coelho’s The Alchemist is an excellent book that I can’t say enough about. I first discovered it as an audio book when I used to have a long commute to work. There were some amazing passages in it that made me want to pull the car over and jot them down but I didn’t…

Everwood Lives!
Everwood is an amazing television series. I can’t say enough good things about it. It is powerfully written and has amazing actors and performances. I bought Season 1 on DVD as soon as it was released and waited for the other seasons to be released. I waited a long time. It looked like they weren’t…

Upper Case Vs. Lower Case
SOME PEOPLE SEEM TO REALLY LOVE UPPER CASE. I understand using upper case to emphasize a specific word or phrase in a piece of text. Of course, abbreviations and acronyms should also be written in upper case. What I don’t understand is how in children’s programs complete words are often written in upper case letters.…
