time passes
On Sunday my parents and I went out for a gut-busting breakfast at Denny’s before I dropped them off at LAX. I guess they had an okay time, but I felt like a poor host. For almost half their visit they were sweating in near three-digit indoor heat. Saturday I managed to completely obliterate my […]
snapp to it
On Saturday I brought my parents to the Buckeye packed Yankee Doodles in Woodland Hills. Steve Snapp’s older brother was on hand to shake hands and squeeze out alumni dollars. After the (predictable) buckeye win we stayed an extra ten minutes to see the thrilling conclusion of Michigan’s season opener that will surely go down […]
hot child in the city
After arriving home very late on Wednesday night I was delighted (with sarcasm) to feel the hot air of a broken air conditioner greet me once again at my door. My parents were coming on Friday morning – so I bought new fuses (again) on Thursday after work and installed them. My prayers would not […]
Apple and AT&T – two faulty products made for each other
I’ve been saying this for years! My Cingular service in Los Angeles (any part) was always horrible. My Verizon service (that I’ve had for 9 months) has been near perfect. Couple that with this and you’ve got some bad bad news for AT&T (and a smile on my face).

My parents decided to forgo the Garden to get on with the other scheduled events of the day (which was lunch at Houston’s I believe and then The Gamble House). On Sunday I revisited the Garden with Beverly after stopping for lunch at […]
wow…okay…
cute and cuddly?
“I said Salsa, not Seltzer”
After work today I sped fast down the 101 and 405 en route to West Los Angeles. Today would be another small milestone for the book of “I’ll try anything once.” I picked her up at her office and by 7pm Beverly and I had arrived at Ma’Kai and hoofed to our reserved table ahead […]
no!
I came home from a trip to Santa Barbara on Sunday to get a poof of 92 degree stagnant air in my face. So, after work today I stopped by OSH and bought the last pair of fuses they had, got another roof key, popped the old ones out (the AC man only replaced one […]
pointless?
Is it narcissitic to write a blog? A popular radio personality asserted Wednesday that people that write blogs are the biggest self centered “a-holes” around. Beyond that opinion I have noticed several problems associated with blogging. My number one problem of the past year or so is that so many things I do can’t be […]
