This is the short and the long of it . . . William Shakespeare
This is why I don’t Twitter. Here we go with my day. I checked my email and cleared spam from my blog. Then I went off to the Museum of Art and History to meet Marlene and Judy for a Cafe au Something at Lulu’s. Lulu’s has three locations and the man who owns this [...]
Peter Callesen is a Danish artist who uses nothing more than a scalpel, paper and glue to make the most extraordinary three dimensional pieces. His site is worth a visit.
I would have done this sooner but I got hit again (twice this month) with digital filth and even though I keep back ups religiously, it’s a time consuming, boring job to re-load everything. Jim had just built me a new PC, faster and bigger, so I’m isolating this sweet thing from the web and [...]
Last year, I took part in a telephone survey. I was sent a copy of “O” magazine (a rag I had never before read) and I was asked to read certain articles. As it turned out, the survey wasn’t about the articles, it was about Olay advertisements. I couldn’t remember having seen a single one [...]
Not any more! It really is about time. There’s a new law that protects passengers who are grounded on the tarmac – no more hostage taking and the passengers have to be freed after 3 hours.

Now, on a scale of one to ten, with 10 being a bit of information [...]
There’s a garden shop in Half Moon bay that sells tumbled glass mulch. Glass mulch for your garden. I don’t know. I’d like to see it in a glass jar or a shallow bowl, but a whole path …it seemed a bit mulch to me. (Click to Zoom is still working though).
I brought a tripod to the Monterey Bay Aquarium one day and learned a valuable lesson. The crowd standing in front of the exhibits parted like biblical waters when they saw the tripod. I could probably have mounted a cupcake on the tripod and still had the exhibits to myself. (Click to Zoom still works.)
The Vegas strip is stunning. It’s a living four dimensional collage. Click to zoom. I just learned how to put zoom-able pictures in my posts. And I made the medium size larger for those of you with slower machines and the wait for zoom too long. Jim was pretty sneaky. He knew if he said [...]
I had my back to the kitchen window, checking on my roasting chicken, when the doorbell rang. I thought it was Rhod and the kids and I called out Come In! I turned around to see two men I didn’t know on my doorstep. Not you two I said. Don’t even think about it. They [...]
