I grow increasingly annoyed at how even the most mediocre of occurrences are being magically transformed into feel-good stories: https://twitter.com/BaronDestructo/status/1405993083221721088 Well, this is cool... https://twitter.com/UniverCurious/status/1405605422019629058 Today's Yes/No... https://twitter.com/BaronDestructo/status/1405855095888224256 So, are you all creatures of habit or do you prefer the joyous unpredictability of variety in your lives?

https://twitter.com/bradtravelers/status/1405585424861519873 Hmmmm. If this A.I. can write scripts AND pitch, then I'm making the investment.

Busy week ahead! Pitch on Tuesday. Pitch Wednesday. Informal zoom chat Thursday. And zoom chat with the comic book company on Friday.

June 10, 2021: Projects in Play! Yes/No! From the Stargate Vault!
Today, we did the pre-pre-pre-pitch, followed by the pre-pre-pitch in preparation for next week's pre-pitch for that epic sci-fi comic book adaptation. Matt and Bruce are incredibly smart guys, a lot of fun to work with, and I have no doubt this is the beginning of a long and fruitful partnership - provided Matt doesn't…

June 8, 2021: Chocolate, Smashburgers, and Stargate Playback!
First stop was Big Trouble Pizza (235 Spadina Avenue) for their Tuesday (and only Tuesday) smashburger with cheese, onions, lettuce, ketchup, and pickles served with a side of banana pepper.

A Super Ultra Definitive Ranking of LaCroix Flavors!
This list is, sadly, limited to the LaCroix flavors available in Canada. Unlike our southern neighbors, our product choices are surprisingly limited. I mean, it wasn't until a trip to a local L.A. grocery store several years back that I discovered Ben & Jerry's offered more than a half dozen flavors. Anyway, here are my…
