I mentioned the other day I’d been listening to a lot of 80s music for dancing. Was playing an ancient tape (yeah, cassette…I used it to “go across the floor” in class and it still works!). Where was I? Oh yeah. A mix of Eighties music. And whil... more

Crayons and Flight 800 by Flo Fitzpatrick 6/22/2026 6:32:57 AM

Words by Flo Fitzpatrick 6/16/2026 5:10:32 AM
“Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me.”

The Why by Flo Fitzpatrick 1/26/2026 4:26:12 AM
I’m a huge fan of Midsomer Murders. Acting, directing, writing…all top-notch. Add humor, loveable dogs, great scenery and what’s not to like? But, to me, one element that helps the show stand apart from other mysteries is that it’s primarily charact... more
