I have been planning this post for months and of course now that I’ve finally arrived to this point in the narrative… the website is no longer up and the picture I wanted you all to see is no longer available. While this really, really, really sucks for the point I was going to drive…

Coming of Age would hit the airwaves the week I turned 14. Not that I knew that. I still never knew when it played and on what stations in my area. Middle school life in my Effin Evangy Kidz™ private school was predictable and cloistered. I dabbled in sports, but as a late bloomer I…

Once my voice cracked it was a race against time to write Jimmy out of the show. If you have not read the last post you should, because that explains all the trauma of the Fucking Puberty™ issue in the lead up to the end of my time on Adventures in Odyssey. No boy actor…

“Focus called. They want you again.” Drive to Pomona. Thru the entryway. Up the big staircase. Hey… there’s more pins in the map. Again. Get my 2.7 packets of hot chocolate. Sugared up and ready to go. Adventures in Odyssey: Episode 48- Heroes I’ve commented briefly on this episode in Heroes so I won’t say…

“This is your new character from now on…” Adventures In Odyssey: Episode 031- Family Vacation Part 1Adventures in Odyssey: Episode 032- Family Vacation Part 2 It’s been reported that when I first was given the role that would become my greatest claim to fame that I was rather underwhelmed and irked by it.
