I finally made it out to see “Dark Knight” (see my prior post to read more about my delays in getting to the theater). My sister-in-law volunteered to babysit the kids for the evening so my wife and I could step out on a date. And what better date for a couple married over 11 years than one that involves very little conversation (sorry, dear – the joke was there). She wanted to see it as much as I did, so it was a welcome retreat for both of us. Though after seeing it, I think she isn’t sure it was the retreat she had hoped for. Read more “Knighted”

Psyched
I will not deny that I am a TV junkie. I have more television guilty pleasures than most people have favorite shows. One of these is a show on USA called Psych (on Friday’s at 10:00 PM ET – the latest season premiered last week). In a television landscapes littered with dramas too serious and comedies a bit formulaic, this show manages to be both a suspenseful drama and a surprising comedy without ever taking itself too seriously.
