I Don't Wanna Grow Up, I'm a Toys R Us Kid

Sorry I couldn't make the R in Toys R Us backwards for authenticity's sake. I don't have time for a real update right now, but here's a link to my latest column from Tuesday's Herald News. Enjoy and have a fabulous New Year.

Trust me, this is not a back handed compliment; but your columns are getting much better. I like the use of cringeworthy, I thought it was just one of those terms that should be a word but isnt...

Em, Happy New Year! I think what Random Reader means by that is that your columns are only getting progressively MORE stellar. Rock on with your bad self. We'll have to get to Sapphire this week, before I leave!

Hey Em! I really liked your column. It brought back some fond memories of days gone by. =) Let me know when you're free so we can have another sushi night. See you soon!

Ditto (or as My Adolescent and his friends bawl “SAME!”) on the previous complements about column quality. I love the smell of Northwestern in the morning. It smells like…Literacy. Anywho, it seems to me that your newspaper columns are drifting ever closer to your WT style; your defining style; the Style Whose Name Must Not Be Spoken. Or maybe the sniveling newspaper junior editor whose job description includes Screw With The New Girl And Show Her Who’s Boss has slithered off to crawl up the ass of some other poor unsuspecting new hire. Just a thought.

BTW, I have always loved the adjective “strapping,” and bemoan its decline in today’s literature and media. Gone are the days of the grand, ponderous, timpanic M Hyman & Son radio jingle “Big Strong Men. Big Strapping Men. M Hyman & Son. M Hyman & Son.”

That is all.
