BossaNova, in the key of shame

Bossa Nova (Manga mix)

2008-08-15T07:05:07Z

Saw this on fudge it's blog, so I created me. Or recreated me. Or visually re-mixed me. However you wish to look at it. But there's something not right about it. Yes, I'm that angry. No, my nose isn't that pointy. I may do a do-over. I found it d...

In Threes

2008-08-08T08:37:27Z

Three has always been my pet number. It's always brought me luck. But even your trusted companion can snap at you if you don't show enough appreciation. First it was Groove Heroine's mother, then my boss's mother, and now a close family member. ...

Chip & Dale

2008-08-01T06:15:52Z

No, this post is not about strippers. But let’s see if we can work them in. Over a three-week stretch, I chipped not one but two of my bottom teeth. Amid concerns that my body was falling apart, I speculated that my jaw had slowly become so cro...

Closing Time

2008-07-06T21:51:04Z

So I’m going to close down my personal website (www.worldwhereyoulive.com) of 8 years. That will only leave me with about, oh, 8 other places to blog. Oh my! What am I gonna do? I haven’t been adding content to it, nor tinkering with some of the ...

“You don’t look two days over 40…”

2008-06-27T06:18:56Z

So, like, yesterday was my birthday. One of those milestone birthdays. But perhaps we should call it a gallstone one. You know, difficult to pass. When I told my daughter it was my birthday, she asked how old I was. When I answered, her eyes wide...

Spending time at Rasputin's

2007-09-28T08:17:08Z

In Mt. View, where the old Tower Records used to be, a Rasputin Music store has opened. I'd been wanting to go there for a while, but it wasn't until today at lunchtime that I was able to drag Verbal there with me. I used to frequent the Raspu...

It was a sign, but what did it mean?

2007-09-26T08:16:39Z

On our vacation to Hawaii, we happened to take a seat on the outdoor patio of the Kakaako Kitchen in Honolulu. (Great lunch plates, by the way.) I look over and see an industrial-size garbage can, and something catches my eye. I know ...

SeeqPod for searchin' and playin' music and video streams

2007-09-18T08:46:00Z

SeeqPod.com is a "playable search" site for music and video that Verbal turned me onto. It's like a search site for MP3s and video files - which can be hosted anywhere, it seems, such as private websites and even public storage sites - and you can...

Smashing Pumpkins at the Fillmore

2007-07-17T15:59:23Z

Last night I caught Smashing Pumpkins at the Fillmore with Verbal. They are currently camping out on an extended stay in San Francisco, for something like 9 shows. They just released Zeitgeist, their first new album in 7 years. They played some ...
