Or something like that. I have previously confessed my love of uber-artificial “foods” like spam and velveeta. (Insert Monty Python voice saying “Spam!” here). So why do I feel kind of dirty confessing that I am currently rockin’ out to a shuffle mix of all the Bon Jovi in my iTunes?
Right now in the rotation? [...]
Here, chez BLC, it is national pie and stuffing patties with fried eggs and gravy for breakfast weekend. (With many thanks to backlist for the idea.) We did leave the house for several hours yesterday to do such things as go to the store for mops and brooms and other cleaning items I somehow managed [...]
We do love us some Bishop Allen chez BLC. But with an 8 o’clock door and two bands playing beforehand? Well, I’ll be ordering coffee, not beer, at the bar, especially since I have to be two hours from here in another state by 10 am tomorrow, for a deposition in an asbestos [...]

I am about to admit something shocking. Until this week, I did not have an mp3 player. Nope. No iPod, no Zune, no Aiwa mp3 player. Zilch, nada, zip. But then, then, my cell phone gave up the ghost. After two years of being dropped on pavement, in toilets, [...]
Mrs. G, chez Derfwad Manor, has dared me to post about a few of my favorite things, it being Friday, and favorite being alliterative with Friday and all… I’ve already posted this week about particular books and music and traits of friends, so here are some Genre favorites.

I am a big fan of Cake, leftover from my college days, I suppose. We just ordered their “B Sides and Rarities” from their website, and while there are lots of good songs on it (including an ironic but loving take on “Never Gonna Give You Up” by Barry White), I’ve got to say [...]
