He's 'Family'


Recognize this scorching-hot young man? I do, because I just happened to have rented the classic '60s sitcom via Netflix. Get to the bottom of it HERE.

Recipe for Disaster


Even before the Oakland County Child Killer murders, my first real exposure to death was when "Family Affair" cutie Anissa Jones died in 1976. I pictured her looking like Buffy still, with Mrs. Beasley tucked under her arm, so it made no sense that she could have been overdosing on drugs, a word I barely understood the meaning of. 


But it was only when this cookbook popped up on my Facebook news feed last week did I dig deeper and find what she looked like closer to her death at age 18. 

Combine equal parts:

  • Cocaine
  • PCP
  • Quaaludes
  • Seconal 

  •  Yield: Causes death


    What a beautiful girl -- still far too young to imagine abusing narcotics -- and a tragic ending. Her brother overdosed in 1984 later leaving mom Mary Paula Jones childless till her death in 2012..

    An 'Affair' to Remember


    This photo/message I received today is especially great slash f**king weird because my friend Mark and I were JUST talking about how hot Mr. Brady was, and I just got "Family Affair" on DVD from Netflix over the weekend, which has this episode!

    Thought of you as soon as I saw it, gives him a whole new look! Watching "Family Affair" this morning on ME TV and look who was playing one of Cissy's teacher. Yeppers, that is Mike Brady (Robert Reed) with a beard. Damn, he looks handsome with it. It is Episode 14, Season One that originally aired on December 26, 1966, titled "Think Deep "

    Song of the Day: 'Buffy, Come Back' by Angel and the Reruns


    With thanks to Brian, who reminded me of this KROQ-friendly song after seeing my new Buffy and Jody "Family Affair" Facebook "cover" photo. By the way, has anyone ever read any of Hillary Carlip's books?
