Ira Glass doesn't talk about about story -- he talks about Story.  We saw him last night at Sunset Center.

If you haven't heard his radio show THIS AMERICAN LIFE, download a podcast now.

My friend-slash-sister TARYN puts on quite the Halloween party.  This year she cleared out her horses' barn in SEPTEMBER to begin making five "haunted rooms" -- vampire castle, witch's forest, haunted mansion, mad scientist's lab, and zombie corral.  CHRIS is above, enjoying his role as mad scientist -- a bit too much... 

Saying this party was awesome is like saying Yosemite has some nice rocks.  I'm not even going to try.

I am commemorating the event with www.mypublisher.com photo books -- a copy for Chris and me, and copies for Taryn and her family, since her brother especially did a ton of work on this creation.
