Adding Color To A Marble Saint

May 12, 2015 by BlackRabbit Leave a Comment

Kitman does an excellent and in-depth examination of Washington’s early life, military & election campaign, as well as the schemes and tricks apparently used to gain him the Prefidency, all without losing his respect for Washington or suggesting he was the wrong man for the biggest job in the world.

Do They Cover Deicide on NCIS?

April 2, 2015 by BlackRabbit Leave a Comment

Together, under the direction of Tara’s boss from the mystical firm of Kelethres, Albrecht & Ao, they set out to answer the three simple questions that pop up in any suspicious death: Whodunnit, how, and why? The fact that the who is Kos Everburning, god of the city of Alt Coulumb, does make it a little trickier.

Your Murder Is Shedding On The Floor

March 21, 2015 by BlackRabbit Leave a Comment

Life’s full of regrets, mistakes, lost opportunities and bad memories. Sometimes you can see them in someone’s eyes or the way they act, but sometimes they’re hidden under nonchalance and a bright smile. But imagine if you couldn’t hide it-if everyone could see your past sins in a physical form?

A Giant In His Field

February 21, 2015 by BlackRabbit Leave a Comment

A well-known quote by British writer L.P. Hartley goes “The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there.” Nowhere is this more evident than in the field of medicine, where advances in technology and technique arrive at dizzying speed.

Washington’s Monument Is The One Dollar Bill

February 15, 2015 by BlackRabbit 1 Comment

Some might object to any type of mudslinging at such a legendary figure as George Washington, but I can assure you that nothing of the sort takes place.

The Woods Are Lovely, Dark And Deep

February 3, 2015 by BlackRabbit 2 Comments

I’m a fan of both Stephen King and H. P.Lovecraft, and a book that both have cited as being an excellent read is Arthur Machen’s The Great God Pan.
