So far so good. Barring a long wait at the border while Chris got the ol’ body cavity search the trip down was smooth. Friday night the ‘maniacs were on fire. They really stormed that stage for the enjoyment of a full house. I’m looking forward to shows 3 & 4 tonight. I may take [...]

battlestar galactica

OMG! (Yes, I just said OMG) So I’ve allowed myself to get hooked on the new Battlestar Galactica series. The writing is very sharp and the special effects are truly a step forward. It did take me maybe four episodes to invest any emotion in the characters but they got me in the end. The [...]

Friday afternoon I leave town with this bird for Bellingham with the Impromaniacs, and then we keep on going Sunday to Vegas. She sent me the travel intinerary today. That always makes it just that more real. I’ve never been to Vegas. Any advice on must sees? Meanwhile I work Thursday night. I think that [...]

foosball wizards

I changed my email password last night. It’s a good idea to do that from time to time, yes? The best security is a fluid security. But I did that after a day out with some of the ex-millians. We warmed the benches at the Wicket for four hours then headed back to Grant’s for [...]

three bucks, no sense?

This week marks the end of an era. $3 is the minimum price an establishment can charge for a drink. Except for a few loopholes. Who was the crack addict who said “a drink” is defined as an ounce of 40% alcohol by volume? (roughly a beer, a shot of vodka, or a glass of [...]

vegas, baby. vegas.

I just remembered where my devil duck is. Not so long ago I was at Hugo’s with the trusty duck. He insisted on being sociable and he proceeded to do the rounds. Somewhere along the way I got distracted and forgot all about him. I know. I’m a heel. Anyway, I was in there very [...]

peanut buster & travel

Hey! Cute puppies! Hey! I think I’m going to be able to go to the Impromaniacs’ (new site coming soon) shows with Unexpected Productions at Ryan Stiles’ Upfront Theatre Friday & Saturday, January 28-29. Two shows nightly. If you need a road trip you ain’t going to find better than this. Jen just needs to [...]

trash = statement

I don’t know how many of you have been introduced to The Secret, or how many of you have kept up with it, even in a casual way. I only mention it because today’s was a strange one. A medium-sized McDonald’s soft drink cup filled with broken blue-tinted auto glass, right outside my building. Odd. [...]

“Acknowledge my heat, you bastard!” And then we went out for hair cuts and drinks.
