Yesterday when browsing my kind-of-local WalMart store in Defiance, OH I noticed something… They didn’t have the DVD player I wanted. But what they did have was far more magical, far more elusive, far more expensive… The Nintendo Wii Was I dreaming? Was I hallucinating? Or was I in reality about to make a big […]

Sometimes it is very difficult to find the moment when you know that a show is going to be great (at times, it may seem that the moment never comes). For two shows I was very proud to be a part of the moment arrived quickly. The first time I held up four fingers and

In case you don’t know who Jack is, he is the man who gave Columbus, Ohio a zoo. They did have one before, even though many

If C ever wants to sub, he’d better not do it in Florida… This sub was unceremoniously let go after doing a magic trick for the students. His sub supervisor (I guess they do thing differently over there- no sub supervisor here) called him in and accused him, of all things, wizardry. Seriously. Read the

Okay, I really want to know who someone is. Really. When I work in one of the two middle schools in this one school district, I am constantly mistakenly called Mr. Foote. It’s usually the students, but about a month ago a teacher called me by that name too. Yes, today I was mistaken for

I’m slowly going through a number of DVDs and CDs that I have recorded/created/burned over the years. There are stacks of them. Most not marked. I have been going through disk by disk trying to figure out what is on each. Right now I’m playing a recording that didn’t turn out so well. Seems like
