3/1 - If you must clap to the music, please do not clap on 1 and 3. Okay? Friends don't let friends clap on 1 and 3.
3/2 - "The Americans" - watched the first 3 episodes of season 1 last night and will def be back for more. This couple aren't just spies, they're badasses too.
3/3 - This is wild: a Steampunk R2-D2

3/4 - If you like breathless thrillers, I =highly= recommend Patrick Lee's RUNNER. I can't add anything to this

3/9 - just watched episode 1 of the French "The Returned." Not so impressed until the last 5 minutes changed EVERYTHING. Def going back.
3/12 - Finished "The Americans" season 1 last night. Severely straining my suspension-of-disbelief muscles. Both parents repeatedly take off on these clandestine ops and not once in all these years have the kids awakened and found themselves alone in the house?
3/14 - Clueless Kid on Twitter: 99% of people are stupid. Luckily, I'm part of the other 2%
3/16 - today being Pi Day, I felt obligated to go to Vic's in Bradley Beach for pizza pi.
3/17 - On the subject of disappearing planes, I'd forgotten about Glenn Miller:

3/18 - Never heard of Brian O'Driscoll, but this pic makes me feel happy...

3/19 - Clueless Kid again: The difference between pizza and your opinion is that I asked for pizza…
3/20 - "Justified" - besides overdue and well deserved, the manner of Danny Crowe's death was totally unexpected and, well, hilarious. We'll never know if Raylan would have fallen victim to the 21-foot rule (although I doubt it)
3/21 - Passed the 40k-word mark on the w-i-p.
3/22 - Okay, this made me LOL (really)

3/24 - I joined Goodreads. It looks like it might be fun.
3/26 - received my contributor copy of "All-American Horror of the 21st Century: The First Decade 2000-2010." It contains my story "Night Dive" which, upon revisiting, is not one of my best. It seems too predictable. I wrote it to recapture some of the near panic I felt during my first night dive in a high-walled cove near Zihuatinejo. We had to turn off our lights for the first 15 feet of descent and I felt completely disoriented as to up and down and totally alone in the absolute (and I do mean =absolute=) darkness. After we turned out lights on, all was well and very cool, but that initial descent... wow.
