Bio: While CliqueClack is my first foray into the blogosphere, it’s just one stop along my long journey in writing. With my first book of short stories bounded via copy machine when I was still a lad, my evolution along the trajectory of writing has far exceeded that of my drawing; that first book was fronted by a rather pedestrian hand drawing of “Leatherhead”, of TMNT fame, and my ability hasn’t grown beyond rudimentary since those days. But the baby’s cute!

Henry VIII and Bill Henrickson; have I gone too far?

I figure you’re thinking one of two things: either “What?” or, “Their having multiple sexual partners is not the same thing.” Well, I suppose some of you might be thinking how Bill is worse as a polygamist than Henry is as an adulterer (I’m looking at you, Sebastian). But, either way, you’re all wrong. So, […]

And then there were two “Celebrities”

I need to just let it out: I feel as if The Celebrity Apprentice has been ruined for me. I hope that this feeling goes away before next season, but the amount of whining, complaining, and infantile bickering that’s taken place over the past few weeks, between adults, has really started to make me ill. In […]

Come on, Greek, what’s wrong?

I don’t know what’s going on with Greek, but something’s missing for me so far this season. And I’m not just talking about the hopscotching cast (more on that later). Some piece of the show that made it so fresh in seasons past is just absent this time around. Let’s see if we can figure […]

NCIS, keep it spun-in

The dreaded day has arrived; NCIS aired it’s launch episode for the show’s spin-off, rumored to premiere this fall. There’s one piece of good news in all of this: we won’t know if it’s official until May 20th. So there’s still hope. I’ll be honest with you: the latest episode, entitled “Legend” (the first of […]

The Celebrity Apprentice returns to high school?

I’m going to break my promise to you. I apologize, but I would be forsaking my duty to you, avid Celebrity Apprentice fan, were I to ignore the horror that was Momma and Baby Rivers this past week. I’ll keep it curt, but I wanted to forewarn you: The following is not for the faint […]

Tony Soprano, modern day Henry VIII?

Preposterous! I know; I too have been there. Even though the comparison occurred to me first, my initial reaction was to laugh at it. What’s the connection? You can’t even draw one between the two actors (or can you?). But the more I tossed the idea around in my head, the more interesting the similarities […]

Is it just me, or is Rafe’s Mary problem In Plain Sight?

I know; I just couldn’t resist. Some shows lend their names to corny lines and poor puns. What are you going to do? However, not all shows lend themselves to having their easily punned titles played with. Sometimes, you just luck into a situation…. Like with In Plain Sight: Rafe (Cristián de la Fuente) has […]
