Don Draper Dreams

July 10, 2012 by D. A. Wolf 1 Comment

“I want less mess around here,” he says. “And that means less stuff.

Shower Shockers, Water Worries

June 30, 2010 by D. A. Wolf 18 Comments

Shower shockers Who doesn’t do some of their best thinking in the shower? And who doesn’t recall the terrifying shower scene in Alfred Hitchcock’s 1960 thriller, Psycho? Janet Leigh is unwinding after a harried day of larceny, an eerie encounter with a creepy character, and is lulled as she finally cleans up, letting her guard […]
