If you’re in the NYC area, please come and see (hear?) me read a few stories. I somehow ended up on the same bill as Michael Kupperman. I’m not sure how that happened, but I’m not going to look a gift horse in the mouth. And other cliches.

onedishwithdaniel:
I wanted to start this off right and ask a friend who is also someone I admire professionally. I have known Maggie Serota for about 7 years. We met through Philebrity, a site we both used to write for. One of the first times we met, I asked her to help with a weird rewrite of MST3K that an old roommate of mine was working on. This guy was crazy in the best possible way...

Maybe the vast majority of racism I’ve seen has been against whites. Maybe that’s why a white quarterback convicted of involvement in a dogfighting ring is vilified even years after he has served his time and a black quarterback who raped a woman and has had a history of doing…
