NBC’s Kings: The Show Must Go On
It seems that whatever show I get into gets canceled. Deadwood and Life on Mars being the more recent fatalities. I tend to like shows that are not completely mainstream. Therefore, when the masses lose interest, I’m just beginning to warm up to a show. It doesn’t hurt to have formidable actors like Ian McShane (Deadwood & Kings) and Harvey Keitel (Life on Mars) to watch either, for they are deeply brilliant...

My Maman Bozorg’s Revolution
Image Courtesy of Atieh Noori As a child of five, my parents migrated our small family of four to America.

The Boy Inside the Man
Our phone rang at exactly 3:55 AM. It rang with one of those Dad something bad has happened rings I hadn’t heard in the ten years since our youngest son said goodbye to teenage angst and hello to twenty-something aimlessness. Thankfully the aimlessness finally eased as he joined the Army , found a wife and fathered the most perfect grandchild in the world. The second ring snatched me from the world of dead sleep...
