I probably shouldn't mention that my cat has spent the last 20 minutes in my arms, purring and head bumping my chin, huh?

Welp, Diablo 3 has been down for the count for ~4 hours, so I may as well take a peek back here...

I had a cat that would bite if you ignored his bumps for attention

Our cat just howls for attention and slowly starts to do crazier and crazier things until you do.

Good morning. Gearing up for yet another day.
Good to see you, Lady Sparkles.

I never watched Boston Legal because of one of the other actors in it (and there is no way I would suffer through their abysmal, awful loathsome presence just to see the rest of the show), but I'll admit that Kingdom Of The Spiders was an entertaining cheese-fest of the highest order. Not something that is ever going to be remembered as a highlight of Western culture.
And he was decent, if not staggeringly original, in Third Rock From The Sun, but, really, that was EPIC stunt casting...

Good morning!
Positives: My foot is finally starting to feel better! Negatives: In the attempt to put less pressure on my foot while walking, I seem to have screwed up my back. Positives: The very first book I've edited for the publisher I'm working for is off my plate and will be published in a month. I am super excited. And I've learned that I really need to up my game as an author. LOL.

I once heard him say in an interview that he never really approached it as singing, more like spoken poetry. And he recently released another album. No, seriously, he did.

For all the jokes heaped upon him, The Shat really isn't that bad of an actor. Yeah, they make fun of his delivery and it later probably ended up as a self-caricature.
But the man played Shakespeare. And worked with Christopher Plummer. And he was on Broadway with Walter Matthau. |

Oh, Ace - you should know by now that I love his work. I really am not dissing the man, and if you need proof of his acting chops, there are plenty of one-off appearances scattered around his credits where he out-acts even the big name stars of the franchises he guests in. It's just... The casting people are often really, really uninspired. Hopelessly so. I would love to see him given something really meaty instead of a sit-com, so he can show that he has the ability to command the screen again rather than crack wise with his co-stars.
