Fiftieth Floor — Tap and Die 010

Mystery Alaska Documentary
Over the past few years, I’ve worked in the background (as is the case with many of my projects and collaborations) on a mystery Alaska documentary. It’s still not greenlit for full length — it may never cross that line. But there’s enough money behind it now that I can share some photos and talk about…

What Thanksgiving movies are there?
The greatest Thanksgiving movie of all time is quite clearly Babette’s Feast. I’ll spoil that for you, right now. Just go watch Babette’s Feast this holiday. However, folks keep digging around, asking me: what thanksgiving movies are there out in the wide world of film? I’m going to make a quick, incomplete list. Mainly because…

Avengers Endgame Spoilers — Rancid Ep. 01
Some folks didn’t realize a couple years back, I secretly released a movie spoiler podcast called Rancid with Jeremiah Jones, Matt Otey, and my ever-present partner in crime, Mark Neuenschwander.

Panasonic portable VHS 1979 TV commercial
Kind of wild to think about dragging around a Panasonic portable VHS recorder in 1979, but good grief this is valuable to know for my current work in progress. Who here owned VHS recorders? We had one, much smaller. Apparently they downsized a couple years later:

Margin Path Greenwood
As the Green-wood Poet, I’ve been to Greenwood easily twice as many times as I’ve been to the Met Museum and was still surprised by the margin path in Greenwood (I don’t really believe in dashes, even in proper names, only em dashes and only for parentheticals). The Met I’ve visited some fifty times and:…

Halloween Stoop Decorations in NYC
I’ve slowly been collecting photos here in NYC of Halloween stoop decorations. Let me know in the comments how you’re decorating and which one of these is your favorite. My favorite far and away is the first: This daddy was hand-drawing 13 (for the triskaidekaphobic folk) pumpkin skulls on each step in chalk with his…

Fantastic Beasts Spoilers — Rancid Ep. 00
Some folks didn’t realize a couple years back, I secretly released a movie spoiler podcast called Rancid with Jeremiah Jones, Matt Otey, and my ever-present partner in crime, Mark Neuenschwander. Here’s episode zero, which sort of featured fantastic beasts spoilers. As per usual, I don’t take responsibility for everything my collaborators say. But I did…

A Defense of Baby Worship
The two facts which attract almost every normal person to children [and tempt them towards baby worship] are, first, that children are very serious, and, secondly, that they are in consequence very happy. They are jolly with the completeness which is possible only in the absence of humour. The most unfathomable schools and sages have…
