My co-worker Michael brought up the name of actress Daphne Zuniga yesterday, which met with a few blank stares and then my reaction, “Who’s that?”
A funny bit of conversation followed that, and then things moved on, until later in the day when Michael and I had the following conversation via IM:
M - Dude, you seriously […]

Hey kids, Happy Tuesday to ya. We’re almost at hump day - Burgo is actually already there, and he tells me that it is great.
Let’s talk about sex…
I realized courtesy of a comment from Allison and Twitter updates that the regular female readership of this blog is taking a big hit today, because the […]

Can you say f*ck on the radio?

I was a bit under the weather last night, so I decided to skip out on previous plans, and stay in. Saturday night became movie night.
Up first was The Great Outdoors with John Candy, etc. I don’t think I’ve seen it since I saw it originally in the 80s. It still holds […]

A head on collision of music and my life

I don’t even know where to begin this one, so we’ll start here:
I’m messaging back and forth today with my friend AK, one of my friends that goes way back in my timeline.
I guess that she and I have known each other nearly 20 years now, and yet we know each […]

Heavy D is pretty awesome

The subject line above pretty much says it all!
Those of you that were following my newly installed Twitter updates will know that I got to spend some time with Heavy D today.
At the “day job” we have a service that provides celebrity radio interviews (via phone) to morning shows across the U.S. […]

A great quote for your day…

Thanks to Mel for this one, which she found on a blog, from parts unknown…
I really like this one..
If you’re in your 30s, you have baggage (ie: children, broken relationships, et al). And if you don’t? You probably didn’t have a life worth living.
Amen to that!
Read the rest of Mel’s entry, and find out if […]

Behind Blue Eyes - a late night adventure in my neighborhood…
August 6th, 2008 · No Comments
Scenes from my neighborhood last night, two houses down.
Meet my neighbor who lives two houses down. We’ll call him Dave. Mid to late 50s, and a walking picture of hard living.
My next door neighbors often tell me how lucky I am, that I don’t live next door to Dave. And when I […]

The real me, as seen through someone else’s eyes

I don’t often blog (anywhere) about work, but I have to share this moment from yesterday at the office.
We had an introductory conference call with some potential business partners, and we were in the midst of doing introductions on our end. As my good comrade RP was finishing a lengthy introduction, I […]

Kudos to Mel, for sharing the following video brilliance. God, I love Twix bars. This video just makes me love them more.
Unfortunately, my metabolism doesn’t let me love them live and in person quite as much as I used to….

Ever blog something, and lose the whole thing?
July 17th, 2008 · 2 Comments
Sure you have.
That’s what happened to me, just as I was posting my Springsteen/Tesla item. I was really happy with it, and had to recreate the whole darn thing from square one.
So as a result, figuring out how to disable the auto-click feature in Windows Vista, which is what caused the post […]
