Question

What was your most favorite kids' TV show when you were small? I'm not talking reruns of theoretically adult shows like I Love Lucy or Star Trek, but programming created specifically for children. How old were you when you loved it? What did you love about it? I'll show you mine if you'll show me yours...

I Shoulda Known Better

I was egosurfing just now, looking for mentions of my work, and stumbled upon a readers' blog where the reviewer seemed to have liked Point of Honour but inveighed bitterly about the historical inaccuracies. The problems she cited, however, were all part of the alternate history of the book; because she was exasperated by the errors, her tone was exasperated. Because I was exasperated at being mis-read, I feel like writing her a note and explaining the alternatey to her. But I won't, because grownups don't talk back to readers.

They just feel like it. I really should know better than to ego surf...

And Another Thing...

To the person who sideswiped my car on Monday at the intersection of Jones and Sutter, then (after I had pulled over, got out my registration and insurance card, and inpected the damage) sped off...Thanks. I can only hope that this is an orderly universe and your karma will get run over in due time.
