Bread and Bread: still lucky

http://breadandbread.blogspot.com/2015/05/still-lucky.html

The intersection of art, life and carbohydrates. Wednesday, May 06, 2015. The audience-participation component of my Ask Me a Question/Give Me a Prompt series hasn’t totally panned out (although it’s not too late, Breadketeers! So today I borrowed one from Brian Kiteley’s The 4 am Breakthrough. In my case, it’s more like the 5 am Just Write Something. Write a short piece of fiction that depends on a character’s precise perception of or reaction to the color red. 8220;Did the traffic make you extra sexist?

http://breadandbread.blogspot.com/2007/04/carnival-of-mundane-xxxii.html

The intersection of art, life and carbohydrates. Friday, April 13, 2007. Carnival of the mundane XXXII. A long time ago I saw a cartoon of a man walking down the street. A few feet behind him was a piano that had just crashed to the ground from some great height. The man’s thought bubble said, “Wow, another close call.” The caption said, Thursday the 12. This Friday the 13. Ival of the Mundane. Claire of Taller Than Average Tales. Nelumbo of Mommy Plays Bass. Nance of Dept. of Nance. What a cool theme, C...

Bread and Bread: webmd is like porn for people who want to be miserable

http://breadandbread.blogspot.com/2015/04/webmd-is-like-porn-for-people-who-want.html

The intersection of art, life and carbohydrates. Wednesday, April 22, 2015. Webmd is like porn for people who want to be miserable. Here is what happens in my favorite episode. I've had good times and bad times at the La Quinta Inn in Fresno. He tells the audience, “I’m just going to be real with you. I don’t know how long I’ve got.”. It'll be ironic when we learn that licorice really does cause cancer. Jokey, always a little dark without being misanthropic—that the real. View my complete profile. Kate G...

Patricia Abbott (pattinase): Forgotten Movies: TO EACH HIS OWN

http://pattinase.blogspot.com/2015/05/forgotten-movies-to-each-his-own.html

Tuesday, May 19, 2015. Forgotten Movies: TO EACH HIS OWN. What is your favorite tear jerker? Oh, this is a film I hadnt heard of before, Patti. Thanks. Certainly DeHavilland was a fine actress in that sort of role. TERMS OF ENDEARMENT had me sobbing. Jackie agrees with you, George. TERMS OF ENDEARMENT gets her vote. Mark S. says,. The final 15 minutes of the 1959 version of Imitation of Life always chokes me up. The tears start flowing as soon as Mahalia Jackson starts singing. Richard S. Wheeler. I also...

CutBank Reviews: December 2009

http://cutbankpoetry.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html

Critical reviews from the poets and editors who bring you. The literary journal from the University of Montana. Saturday, December 19, 2009. Eating Her Wedding Dress: A Collection of Clothing Poems. Ruth O’ Toole. Ragged Sky Press, Princenton. 145 pages, paperback. Reviewed by Jane Dobija. Clothes are the poems that we wear. The billowing skirts, sculpted suits, and scruffy t-shirts in which we parade around tell even the slightly attentive observer about our histories, our hang-ups, and our lies. For he...

Patricia Abbott (pattinase): First Wednesday Book Review Club

http://pattinase.blogspot.com/2015/08/first-wednesday-book-review-club.html

Wednesday, August 05, 2015. First Wednesday Book Review Club. THE DAMNED, Andrew Pyper. I was attracted to this book in my search for a ghost story and because it is mostly set in the suburb next to mine: Royal Oak. MI. Although there is technically a ghost in it I would classify it as a horror story more than a ghost story. In order for the story to work, you must embrace the idea of a child born bad. I was never quite able to do this so that somewhat impeded my enjoyment of the book. On the whole, I do...

Patricia Abbott (pattinase): Forgotten Movies: LAKE MUNGO

http://pattinase.blogspot.com/2015/08/forgotten-movies-lake-mungo.html

Tuesday, August 11, 2015. Forgotten Movies: LAKE MUNGO. Never heard of this one. I hope its better than BLAIR WITCH. I stopped watching horror movies around the time of The Omen. Ive never heard of this either. Ill have to check it out. I liked most of THE BABADOOK, but didnt care for how it all wrapped up. It was pretty original up to the ending which just seemed so predictable and cliché to me. I guess if I were a parent Id see it all differently. As you grow older, you feel more vulnerable, I think.

Patricia Abbott (pattinase): HOW I CAME TO WRITE THIS STORY: FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK AND TWITTER, Eric Cline

http://pattinase.blogspot.com/2013/09/how-i-came-to-write-this-story-follow.html

Saturday, September 28, 2013. HOW I CAME TO WRITE THIS STORY: FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK AND TWITTER, Eric Cline. As a 1972 model h. sapien, I have spent roughly half my life pre-internet and half post-internet (as of.NOW). I use the technology happily and frequently, but I still have enough perspective to look at some of our toys with a certain detachment. The 'Just Desserts' story? Then, one day, starting a new story, I wrote the line: "The woman who fired me has a lovely daughter.". Eric - Interesting isnt...

Patricia Abbott (pattinase): For Moviegoers Everywhere

http://pattinase.blogspot.com/2015/08/for-moviegoers-everywhere.html

Tuesday, August 04, 2015. Thats great. I only wish it worked. We were at the movies last week and a guy was sitting alone in the back corner of the theater. Every once in a while he found it necessary to check his phone. And he wasnt a kid either. I wanted to grab it and stomp it. I was with a friend who got into an awful stink with the wife of a man who she had chastised. She claimed my friend was dissing her man in front of his family. I think it ought to be shown before all films. The Rap Sheet,.
