Our recent outing...
April 16, 2022: Meanwhile on the home front…
My conversation with Akemi today: Me: Batman is a good guy. Akemi: He's a bad guy. Me: No. He's a hero. Akemi: Then why is he called Bad Man? Me: He's not called Bad Man. He's called Batman. He named himself after the bat. Akemi: Say his name. Me: Batman. Not Bad Man. Akemi: Sounds…

April 14, 2022: The Early Weekend Approacheth!
Remember this whiteboard AU season 6 of Stargate: Atlantis? I posted shortly after the cancellation and offered up quick summaries of each episode. Since then, I've been going through my old hard drive in search of Stargate files and came across some of the notes I took on the-episodes-that-never-came-to-be back in the day. And, over…

Three more new and upcoming releases for your consideration... No Second Chances by Rio Youers (released February 22, 2022) Luke Kingsley’s glory days are behind him. A star on the rise, his life and career imploded after his soul singer wife, Lisa Hayes, disappeared without a trace, silencing a very public and tumultuous marriage. Most…
April 10, 2022: Suji Sunday!
Akemi is always the first one up. Suji and I have a little lie-in, eventually waking up a half hour or so later. I massage her ears and hips for a while after which we both get out of bed - and it's time for breakfast! For Suji anyway. We've been livestreaming the grand event…
April 9, 2022: Stock Research > Writing
https://twitter.com/BaronDestructo/status/1512898321198768135 https://twitter.com/BaronDestructo/status/1512906681809784834 I mean, today would have been the perfect day to get started on watching one of the shows listed in yesterday's blog entry (Thanks for all the input by the way). And that was the plan. But I got distracted and ended up researching U.S. small value stocks. And, while I'd like to…
What should I watch? Advise me.
I'm considering doing something I haven't done in ages: watch a show. Despite the foreboding prospect of making a 10, maybe 13 episode commitment, I think I might do it. The following 10 shows have landed on my potential-viewing radar. Please talk me into OR out of watching any of the following... EUPHORIA MOON KNIGHT…
April 7, 2022: The rare culinary double-header!
With our friends Yael and Tanavi in town, Akemi and I joined Dr. Blackjack for a couple of meals. First, lunch at Shook - Stuffed smoked dates, mushroom kibbeh, wild mushroom couscous. Not pictured: the best hummus in town. Then, dinner at Antler - The charcuterie board (the boar belly was sublime). The Elk Tartare.…

April 5, 2022: Meccha Tired!
Hoowee! Received an email from my agent last night informing me that he was putting me up for a new genre show and requested a writing sample for a "sci-fi show that tends towards horror". The series is an adaptation of novel - which I happened to have read, so I knew the perfect sample…
April 4, 2022: Baron’s Book Club Blab Blog!
Work has eaten into my once torrid reading pace, but I did read two books last week... The School for Good Mothers by Jessamine Chan (January 4, 2022 release) Frida Liu is struggling. She doesn’t have a career worthy of her Chinese immigrant parents’ sacrifices. What’s worse is she can’t persuade her husband, Gust, to…
