    This is one for those 40+

    We heard it as the 10 o'clock news came on - "It's ten o'clock. Do you know where your children are?" The only time that TV was on all night was for the Jerry Lewis Telethon.

    What Did You Do Today? What are you doing today?

    If you have a smartphone, check a free app called "Russian Made Easy." It's what I started with. Never too old to learn! Another free app called "Russian Alphabet Mastery" does a very good job of teaching the Cyrillic alphabet.

    What Did You Do Today? What are you doing today?

    Today I'm working, I get to work from home 3 days per week. This evening I hope to spend more time in my Russian studies, trying to learn the language.

    What Did You Do Today? What are you doing today?

    That is from my absolute favorite post-Beatles Beatles song. ('What is Life' by George Harrison.)

    What artist/song are you listening to RIGHT NOW?

    I saw them a few months ago in Birmingham, Alabama. They're my favorite current group (can't top the Beatles for all time) and I first heard about them in a post here in SKMB.

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE the mini series!

    Mini-series was very good, book was great. Still my favorite post-DT King writing. I didn't like some of the changes from the book to the series, but all in all, better than most stuff on TV this year.

    Fear the Walking Dead (TWD: Spinoff)

    I watched the first season and the first couple of episodes of season 2, but just couldn't make myself watch it after that. Might be different if we still had a DVR or on-demand for AMC.

    By the Gods of Heaven and Hell and everything in between.

    Yes, I believe in the afterlife. Now and ever, and unto ages of ages.

    Oswald didn't shoot JFK

    I'm late to this particular party so someone else might've said this, but even though it's a work of fiction, King has clearly stated that after all of his research, he firmly believes Oswald was the sole shooter.

    Wherefore Art Thou.

    Same old job, just that it seems busier than ever. Nice to be missed! Will stop in more often whenever possible.

    What are you doing this Memorial Day weekend?

    I'm oncall over Memorial Day weekend, and hope to not get many calls. I might cookout, might just enjoy the great indoors. Hope to spend some time working on my fiction (I'm long overdue for a return to it) and continuing to learn Russian.

    So, where are you from?

    Sweet home Alabama, where the skies are blue. I've been here most of my life. Yes, we have electricity, air conditioning, running water, and the Internet.

    Quotes you just made up

    Everybody needs to be a little crazy. If you ever get to where you're not crazy at all, you go insane.

    Big Party Tonight?

    Will either be home or at my step-daughter and son-in-law's house a few miles away. Might have a drink or two, depending on if we'll drive back home tonight. I have to work tomorrow, hoping for an easy day since Auburn plays in a late-morning bowl game.

    Homeland

    Here's the obligatory spoiler warning. I thought season 4 was good up until the finale, and it was a major disappointment. It was like they used the entire episode to set up next season. It still wasn't as bad as episodes in season 3 (or was it 2) where the sole focus was on Brody's family...
