We love Doctor Who, but the gap between series or specials can feel endless sometimes, and we get impatient waiting for the next adventure of the Time Lord and the iconic blue box. That's why it's such a luxury that Big Finish exists. For those who aren't familiar with the company, Big Finish has been making audio adventures of the Doctor and friends for decades. All of the incarnations (except for current Doctor Jodie Whittaker) are represented, either with the original actors or fill-ins. Thus, fans have countless opportunities to let their minds wander well past what they've seen on... Read more →

Hi everyone, Happy Friday, folks! What's on the schedule for the weekend? Not really sure how we'll mark the arrival of October, apart from hopefully getting a little bit of garden time and watching the New England Patriots. We'll figure that out later. For now, let's jump into the headlines. BDH and Little Buddha made coffee, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, because it's time to clear out some Clutter. Ginni Thomas finally met with the January 6 House select committee yesterday. The rabid conservative activist reportedly fed the committee members a steady stream of nonsense, including the lie...

Hi everyone, You're back! That's outstanding. How are you? This week seems to be flying by for some reason. Actually, September as a whole came and went in a flash. BDH and Little Buddha say it's because we've been so productive. I like the sound of that. We're preparing the office for the cold weather, before the spike in our utility rates arrives on November 1. Some windows are being wrapped, and some of those insulation strips are being applied in key locations. The boiler has its annual maintenance appointment soon, and I think we're also getting a fancy new... Read more →

Hi folks, How are you? Week going okay so far? Things are fine on this end. No luck at the bookstore yesterday, but at least BDH and Little Buddha still have a ways to go with the one they're currently reading. That should last us until at least next week. Plus, the guys are excited that NBC's "One Chicago" shows are on tonight, so they're all set for the time being. Today's to-do list is a little on the long side, but it sounds like the weather should be nice, so that's good. Now, let's get to work. There's a... Read more →

Hi everyone, How are you? BDH and Little Buddha are staring out the window at the moment, completely fascinated by the current fog. They can only see about a block down the street right now, and that's apparently the coolest thing ever. Whatever makes them happy, works for me. Yesterday was a remarkably productive day. Crossed all sorts of things off the to-do list, so now I kind of feel like I should get the rest of the week off. Sounds fair, right? The guys just said I still have to go to the bookstore to check out the new... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back! How are you? I'm sorry we missed you this weekend. I got my booster and flu shot on Friday, and the combination did a number on me. Saturday was a complete loss, and Sunday was better, but it still wasn't enough for to be able to focus very well. Not really at a full 100% today either, but BDH and Little Buddha were dying to say hi to you, so I said we'd give it a go. The guys made coffee, so grab yourself a nice medium DD, because it's time to clear out some Monday... Read more →

We haven't had much luck finding anything to watch on NBC's Peacock streaming service this year. That's fine, because we're not paying extra for it as part of our cable package. However, the trailer for Meet Cute seemed like it might be a mindlessly entertaining way to pass the time on a rainy afternoon. After all, it stars Kaley Cuoco, whom we enjoyed in The Big Bang Theory and The Flight Attendant, as well as SNL alum Pete Davidson, who always seems oddly watchable, although we're still not sure if he's funny. Besides, the movie is only 89 minutes long,... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back, and a happy Friday to you all. What's on the schedule for the weekend? We're kicking things off with both a booster and flu shot later today. Try to control your jealousy, friends. Actually, I'm looking forward to both. After finally getting COVID this summer, I'm happy to do whatever it takes to reduce the odds of another round, and the flu is no fun either. Other than that, not entirely sure what our crew will be up to, besides watching the Patriots on Sunday with Dad Clutter. There's a chance we'll be back here again... Read more →

Hi everyone, Welcome back. How are you? Sorry we're getting off to a late start today, but our crew needed a little extra beauty rest after staying up for NBC's "One Chicago" last night. BDH and Little Buddha just told me today's weather forecast calls for a lot of rain, particularly this afternoon, so I'm not completely sure what that means for today's errands. Maybe the guys will just read their new book for a while. We'll see. In any case, let's get to work. There's a fresh pot of coffee on the counter, so grab yourself a nice medium... Read more →

Hi folks, How are you? Our crew is excited because we finally found something new for BDH and Little Buddha to read yesterday! The guys were so happy when I brought the book home. It's not that long, so I'll have to make sure they take their time with it, but that was a fun moment yesterday. As far as today goes. it sounds like we'll have pretty decent weather, so I should be able to fit in some garden time later, thankfully. Of course, we're also looking forward to the return of NBC's "One Chicago" tonight. All in all,... Read more →
