It is now 2207. Now, THAT was a good ride. I put in the first set of the 4/30/77 show at the Palladium, and up they go just like that with a more-than-memorable performance of Music Never Stopped. Beautiful stuff. Then it is on to Bertha, then It’s All Over Now, and I ended my…

it is now 2104. No music plays, but the sounds of the fans swirl on all around me. They create a hum of noise that, for some reason, makes this heat just a little more bearable (as if it were ever bearable to begin with). The seven-day forecast looks like some kind of sick cut-and-paste…

today is 16 July 2007, 0711 Good. Last night’s entry loosened the hold. Things are shaking up a little. It’s a Tori Amos kind of day as the final week of teaching begins (This is not really happening…you bet your life it is). . . . I listened to my fave version of Sugaree this…

Today is Sunday, 15 July 2007, 2133 I am sweating like a madman. The humidity socked us today re-alll good, and with no AC, it’s all I can do to keep from becoming a madman. So begins rus uncut, no. 1. Braeden awakes in tears. It is not even 10 yet, and already he finds…

Indeed. . . .What a great weekend. Friday night, we kicked things off at the Paper Moon Diner, which is like no other restaurant in Baltimore (or anywhere else I’ve been, for that matter). Things got a little pricey when we started adding on fries and drinks, as is the case anywhere else, but the…

Hello, World. . . . The rush of the school year’s end collided with getting ready to teach grad school, and when I looked up today and took a breath, I realized that I had not blogged in a good while. Shame, shame, shame. I think, though, that as I gear up for my book…

Alright, Potter fans: The time has finally arrived. We’ve spent the last year or so speculating the various outcomes for book seven, the last. We’ve analyzed both the UK and the US dust jackets for Deathly Hallows, searching for elusive clues that might give us some indication of just who might not be standing when…

Carl mentioned her even after I said that I wasn’t looking for her, but of course he was right all along. I’m talking about my earlier post where I was in search of a singer to soothe my soul. I said I was looking for somebody like Sheryl Crow, but not her exactly. Well, I…

Thirteen Things that are on RUS’ mind. . . . 1. Why do my Starbucks cups leak whenever I am wearing a white shirt?2. Why does this seem to happen early in the morning, when I’m on my way to school, and I don’t have any possibility whatsoever of changing my shirt? 3. It would…

My goodness, I do believe there is hope yet. Beyond my wildest imagination, I witnessed something today that I thought could never happen again–especially in my own back yard (figuratively speaking, of course). But there they were, all three of them, laughing their heads off as if they were in hour three of the mega-Disney…
