What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months? In an interview for a newspaper article on my new theatre organizations, StoryZ, I suggested that one of the main challenges going forward was getting actors to join in the cause. My interactions with people at Chamber of Commerce events have nettedContinue reading “Come Play With Us!”

Too Shy, Too Shy…
What advice would you give to your teenage self? My title of course references the song by Kajagoogoo. Now, if I gave advice to my teenage self, would he listen? There’s a famous quote by Goethe who suggests that young people never listen to their elders and that they have to discover things on theirContinue reading “Too Shy, Too Shy…”
Enter Tavern, Order Drink
What is your favorite drink? For the question, “What is my favorite drink?” I of course can’t just supply as easy answer. Naturally it depends on the context. If there’s pizza, there should be beer. Oddly enough, I used to hate IPAs, but a little while ago, I tried one, and really enjoyed it. IContinue reading “Enter Tavern, Order Drink”
Ahhh, Look At All My Fav’rite People
Who are your favorite people to be around? As a life-long introvert who only recently has said, “Screw it, life’s too short, and who cares what people think?” (as I venture into the local social scene to raise awareness of my non-profit theatre company), I would say that the list of favorite people to beContinue reading “Ahhh, Look At All My Fav’rite People”
Shooooooesahhh!
Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you. My title refers to the character of Jen on the show The IT Crowd where she tries to get her not-very-observant tech support co-workers to notice her new toe-mangling heels. As for my shoes, I frequently observe to myself, when looking inContinue reading “Shooooooesahhh!”
Bad Budgeting
Write about your approach to budgeting. My title should probably be “Bad Example of Budgeting.” My approach is not one that people should necessarily follow. When my wife died, I gained a healthy insurance payout. I paid off my car and banked the rest. When I sold my house, I invested that in some productsContinue reading “Bad Budgeting”
The Gift That Keeps On…Well, You Know…
Share one of the best gifts you’ve ever received. When I was a kid, I had a great interest in science. For Christmas I would get a telescope, a microscope, a chemistry set—the science interest du année—all sorts of things to expand my knowledge. As I grew older, the gifts became more intangible. Going outContinue reading “The Gift That Keeps On…Well, You Know…”
Patriot vs. Patriotic
Are you patriotic? What does being patriotic mean to you? Would I say I’m patriotic? Absolutely. I’m a proud supporter of the United States of America and want to see her (US?) succeed in all endeavors on the world stage. Am I a patriot? That word has undergone a change in meaning lately. It usedContinue reading “Patriot vs. Patriotic”
Guilty, Your Honor
Have you ever unintentionally broken the law? A few years ago, when working on a set design for the play Noises Off, I was informed about the difference between stairs and ladders. Then, just about a year ago, I was descending from the second floor of the garage. I always come down backwards, because IContinue reading “Guilty, Your Honor”
A Plethora of Miscellaneous
If there was a biography about you, what would the title be? I wrote that title a few weeks ago and saved it in Notes, because I knew it would come in handy eventually. When seeing today’s prompt I thought it was strictly apropos (which would be a bad title for my biography). Looking backContinue reading “A Plethora of Miscellaneous”
