It looks like my car is reaching the end of its days. I took my car to a good mechanic (J&L in Nyack) to have them figure out why the “check engine” light was on. Actually, I already knew; I’ve got a gadget (Automatic) which tells me why the car’s computer has turned that light on. In…
No, this isn't a Doctor Who post! I've performed seven weddings so far. My rate for starting successful marriages is: Three couples are still together, two marriages ended because one of the partners passed on, and two divorces. That's roughly the national average. Note that, in order to maintain my average, Deborah Lipp is forbidden to die.…
I found three more people who like Mage Knight! Now I have more of a chance to play one of my favorite games.
This is the graphically improved Tomb Raider from 2013, adapted for next-gen consoles like the PS4 (on which I played the game). The only games I can compare this to are the Uncharted series. I know that Lara Croft was killing off enemies when Nathan Drake was still in diapers, but that's the order in which I…

I have to write this. This doesn't mean you have to read it. Just skip it. This is the story I told my cats from time to time. Once upon a time, there was a little black kitten who was living homeless on the streets of Jersey City. A human, CJ, saw the kitten and gave her…
It's not lymphoma. It's aggressive carcinoma. Do not read my next post.
My take on "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" matches that of most of the reviews I've seen: this isn't the best of the series (I'd pick The Empire Strikes Back); this isn't the worst of the series (tie between The Phantom Menace and The Return of the Jedi). This is a Star Wars movie, picking up the…
