FINE!!! I admit I’m a bit emotional today for one reason or another, but this short animated film from Storycorps pushed me over the edge. (In a good way.) Joshua Littman is a 12-year-old boy with Asperger’s Syndrome and an obsession with animals. Here he interviews his mother Sarah, asking her all those really uncomfortable questions some of us neglected to ask before it was too late. So yeah… watch this. Grab a Kleenex, and dip your head behind your computer screen. You’ll see why soon enough.

Mother’s Day is Sunday, guys! Treat ’em right while you can.

Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.)
