Fusenews: In which I manage to work in the phrase “shirtless Jason Isaacs” seemingly with no effort at all
When you’re a parent you don’t get a whole lot of time to take off and see new movies. Tell you something you don’t already know, right? Well for Christmas my husband and I got a copy of Wes Anderson’s Moonrise Kingdom and even with the film in our home we STILL didn’t get around […]
Fusenews: Gleep!
Durn. This is what I get for not doing a Fusenews in a while. A whole plethora of good stuff! Let’s see what we can use up in a single day, eh? For the record, if you haven’t read these Hunger Games comics (in the style of Kate Beaton, no?) then now’s the time. They’re […]

Fusenews: If it has Jeffrey Tambor in it, it’s gotta be good!
Boy, I picked the wrong week to go about putting off my regular Fusenews. What we’ve got here is a veritable fusey newsy pile-up. I shall endeavor to separate the wheat from the chaff, but no guarantees it’ll actually work. Let us see what all I’m able to pack in for today then: Lucky ducks! […]
Fusenews: Juice proof
Oh man. I need to get my third Newbery/Caldecott predictions up and pronto. Now that the Heavy Medal blog has entered the arena again you just know that the debating is about to begin. Already I can see that I’ll have to fight tooth and nail for my beloved One Crazy Summer and that Nina […]
