  • Small Story about the Iron

    The other day, in the small back room which is lined with old shelving and which we use mainly as a storage room, I set up the ironing board and iron and afterward neglected to take it down. It is a small room and so yesterday Marty and I were sitting in it talking, which…

  • Where's George

    A little bit of fun on a day that was so boring it was disorienting. H.o.p.’s been losing baby teeth like crazy the past month. Subsequent last night’s visit from the Tooth Fairy, he asked me what was up with one of the dollar bills. It had strange writing on it, he said. I looked…

  • Hurry, it's your last day to get your name on the moon (at least via the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter)

    We did it. We are sending our names to the moon via NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. Well, I did it. Marty didn’t. He’s in a session and knows nothing about it. And H.o.p. didn’t do it either, to tell the truth. I called his attention to the project thinking he would be “Oh, wow!” and…

  • Options

    Do you want to see a photo of Marty’s kombucha tea culture, which after a number of months and much experimentation and loving attention has yet to deliver a decent tasting batch? Probably not.

  • The Recording Cabinet of…(part 2)

    No one from Italy has been by my blog on an Elfo search, so Albert Callegari remains happily ignorant of what I think of his Bravenet message board and visitor counters. But, you know, recording studios do this. They get caught up in the business of recording and forget to tend their websites appropriately. Next…

  • The Recording Cabinet of…

    I was reading about Elfo Recording Studio. Well, not exactly reading about it but saw the above-the-fold pic of the exterior at Dezeen in my Googlefeed and liked it, a raucous but curiously comforting jumble, like several 1960s elementary school kindergartens cut up and reboxed. Comforting in the way that public school was comforting when…

  • If Twitter Tools Worked (or Twitter or Something Inbetween) Then This Would Have Been Posted On My Blog Automatically At Around Midnight Presumably

    You see, I, of course, asked the waitron how many birthdays they had a night. She rolled her eyes and sighing, said (see above). – about 9 hours ago from web “Everyone says they have a birthday because they all think they get a free cheesecake but they don’t. They just get a sundae.” Waitron.…

  • Differences of Opinion – The Rusty Nail

    Though I have often thought of it as “silly overfull thing slopping water all over the place”, when an adult he will fondly remember the nail in a jar experiment that he kept on the side of the bathroom sink, retopping with water daily, for a full month and then some (as of June 24,…

  • The Inessential Twitter Updates for 2008-06-23

    Twitter test. Everything keeps going wrong with it. # Test. # Drag Queen size dye-me square toe pumps sitting beside the apartment trash for two days, forlorn and ignored by tran hookers. # “I was killed 100 times in a row and I’m still at the same level. I’m getting real bored with this.” Karmaking…

  • Dancin' Fool

    Shorty’s has great pizza.  And Key Lime pie.  I know because we went out there tonight to see King Johnson.  That link is to their myspace page where they have some songs up off the 2005 album that Marty mixed.  Great fun, funky band. This was one of  of their two reunion shows. I love…
