Pimp A Friend Friday: My Nemesis Matt Betts Has a New Book!
Matt Betts is the Doofenschmirtz to my Perry the Platypus, and he has a new book out. It looks AWESOME. A group of treasure-hunters hits the high seas chasing a tip from a mysterious source. If it’s true, it could be their biggest score yet-literally-a massive robot the size of a skyscraper lost since the last war, worth a sizable … Read More

Welcome to the Family, Marsh Cat!
Two years ago I met and fell in love with this beauty. He’s a gorgeous, skinny, fearful-yet-friendly rag doll cat whom the girls named Marsh. Because he’s fluffy, like a marshmallow, but he’s also a boy, and Marsh is a manly name, they explained. We also call him Mystery Cat. Murder Cat. Mom’s Boyfriend. Mr. E. Murder Paws. Baby. I call … Read More
