I could not resist sharing. Before I discovered Fragile Things and Smoke and Mirrors by Neil Gaiman I didn’t own many short story […]
Read More This Is A Different Thing All TogetherNo, I’m still not tired of this song. Are you? Tonight I’m going to see The Great Budapest Hotel at Circle Cinema. I’ve heard really good things about it. I like Wes Anderson films, and this one has something like 15 Oscar nominees in it. Last weekend I wanted to go see Divergent, but that […]

Read More A Little Bank HumorAugust: Osage County began life as a Pulitzer Prize and Tony award-winning play written by Tulsa’s own Tracy Letts.
