Just a few bits regarding some of my favorite posting topics: Dollhouse: The season finale of Joss Whedon’s Dollhouse last night was amazing, astounding, astonishing, and quite possibly a lot of other words beginning with A. For those of you who are interested in the show, but haven’t yet caught last week’s episode or last [...]

At 10:37 this morning, I was officially sworn in as a citizen of the United States. While this doesn’t change very much in terms of my day-to-day life, it still represents a new chapter, the completion of a process which began with my moving over here eight years ago. The last time I was in [...]
