Mills asks: "A question popped into my head last night (nothing intellectual so feel free to ignore) but when production wrapped on your SG series what happened to the hero Stargates?

Show off. Pizza party!

Last night, news broke about the sudden passing of actor Cliff Simon who played the role of the system lord Ba'al over several seasons on Stargate.  It's no secret that Ba'al was one of my very favorite villains to write, and this was wholly attributable to Cliff's masterful performance.  He imbued the character with confidence…

  Was walking by Forno Cultura the other day and glimpsed these in the windows so, of course, I had to pick them up.  These were an Easter tradition growing up in my Italian household - giant hollow chocolate eggs containing surprises (sometimes toys but usually more chocolate eggs).    Then, at Christmas, it used…

I had just completed my morning workout when I received the following email from my buddy, Doug: "Hey, Joe. I just saw Rayban advertisements getting posted to your Instagram. I think someone got a hold of your account. Just giving you a heads up." Rayban ads?  That couldn't be right.  Could it? Then, a text…
