Confessors: I have a couple of, whaddya call them, "life events" going on at the same time right now. Nothing likely to be mortal. I'll try to get up something fresh but I may have to recycle items for awhile. This one is from March of 2010.

The actress, Zelda Rubinstein, died earlier this year [2010].
