Welcome Foolish Mortals...

 

Yes, there is a method to all of this madness.


That’s me on the right in the top hat.

Ignore the other two.


Please!


What’s all this, now then? Well, it’s popular culture, from the perspective of folks like those in the view above. Maybe not particularly cutting edge, but we hope that you will enjoy what we have to share with you. Among my own interests, Disney and all of the incarnations rank rather high, so you can expect a fair amount on that topic. I’m a film and television junkie so that will come into play as well. Being a child of the mass media age, that’s somewhat guaranteed. But we won’t stop there. Who knows where we will?


Look for a bit of everything from food and beverage to stops along the roads we may have travelled at some time or another. Might be a radio station that has an interesting playlist. Could be a slice of life that we just found amusing and thought that you would as well. As we collect a lot of stuff, you can expect to see some of it here from time to time. Maybe even a tale of how such stuff became collectibles or some stories about how it made the trip from concept to the marketplace. All things we hope that you will find as enjoyable to learn about as much as we enjoy bringing it to your attention.


So... Read on. If all goes well, here is what awaits you each week:


Mondays - Mousellaneous


Something from the many worlds of Disney. Could be theme parks, animation or collectibles! Maybe even something brand new...


Tuesday - Media, My Media.


A look at various media efforts. Could be the latest goodies on iTunes,  a review of a DVD title from my collection or even a glance at something from the stone age - the printed page!


Wednesday - Like You To Meet...


Maybe something new along the way that you might enjoy hearing about.


Thursday - Classic Roger


Out of the past, including an update and expanded photo coverage.


Friday - Ruminations


The return of Roger's weekly column, as last seen on Jim Hill Media. Something outside of all of the rest of the daily efforts and a bit more in-depth look at the subject.


Saturday/Sunday - Tide You Over


Anything that comes to mind that you might enjoy on the lighter side.
