Could someone please explain to me what the heck is going on in China??? In the last month, there have been four separate attacks on preschoolers by middle aged men. Men have been stabbing and attacking these kids with hammers. The latest then lit himself on fire. The 3rd attacker blamed it on recent ‘romantic frustrations.’ The first attacker has already been executed.

Whatever it is, I certainly hope it STOPS, and soon, and how.

Oh, the sweet popsicles of our youthtime. Oh, how they drip down our hands and color our crooked teeth.  A good actory friend of mine, Greg Miller, recently lost his job with Bear Stern. Instead of being pouty and weepy about it, He and his wife have made the better choice – investing their time and efforts into the best darn Popsicle Company you ever did see. They boast flavors like Lemon Rosemary and Grape Kiwi and Cucumber Chili – made with all organic, fresh ingredients. Tell me you are not titalized by that, and I will call you a liar.So far, they’ve been frequenting farmer’s markets and fairs, it seems, to vend their sweet Good, but keep your eyes peeled – it seems like soon, you might be able to buy them online. Who doesn’t want to come home to a fruit chunky popsicle?  I sure do.I mean I LIKE the baby kitty, but he is not organic, nor does he quench my universal summertime need to put cold things in my face. Then again, I could put him in the refrigerator.Hmmm.   

World, meet the lovely Lilly Eudora Eng, new daughter of my friend and co-MFAer at the New School, Jennie Eng. With a hillarious jewish playwright for a Mom person, and a Chinese-banker-kung foo fighter for a Dad – this lass is bound for greatness.

Sophie and Sebastian do not believe in Santa Claus. So I asked why. Sebastian says, I don’t know, it’s just a thing that I think and feel. 

He then dared me to wrap both arms around my head and stick my fingers in my mouth, so I did.
