A Kitten and Her Robot Not much time for blogging these days. I am in a constant state of catch up with my work load. For now I leave you with another gratuitous cute kitten snap (courtesy of Grandpa Leach) and some good links. In doing some research on diorama’s I ran across this and …

Me Talk Kitty One Day I now have three ladies to take care of. Two calico sisters from the same litter arrived on our door step last night. The misses and I have been looking for two kittens for a little while now and they have finally come home. One is watching me type this …
The Games We Play Lately, the misses has been taking my ass back to the ‘Jack of Club’s School for Challenged Card Players’. Her game is Gin and she’s on a hot streak that can only be classified as merciless. On most nights, our mini tournaments will end after I’ve lost my eighth game in …
Ice House Makeovers It’s very possible that the whole redecorating/makeover reality television trend seriously jumped the shark this weekend. The local news was holding makeovers for people’s ice houses (those little shacks that Minnesotan’s spend their winter in attempting to catch fish through a small hole in the ice).

A1 Records A younger author at his favorite record spot in Los Angeles – A1 Record Finders. The good doctor and I easily killed a whole day at this joint. The guy who runs the spot is decently shady and has a keen understanding of his product. It took awhile but after he was buttered …
Buen Cultura It takes a lot to get me leave the warm comforts of my home during these frigid weeks, but this weekend a cultural perfect storm is coming to the city and I plan to catch as much of it as I can. Saturday night, George Thompson of Burlesquedesign will be having an opening …

Frozen Solid A quick check of the temperature this morning reveals a deadly Minnesota story and a plot driven by unbearable circumstances. It’s -24 degrees right now. My one goal for this morning, for the whole day really, was to get myself a bearclaw from the local bakery. That plan is shot. Four minutes outside …
Warm PantsOn cold days like this one, where the forecasted high is -2 degrees, I’m oh so pleased that I remembered to put my Adidas track pants on the radiator last night. They’ve been steeping all night. Putting them on is pure satisfaction. It’s so good in fact that I might have to buy five …
The Silent Guest Woke up this day to find a new blanket of white powder covering the walk and yard. When I went to bed last night it wasn’t even snowing. Unlike a good April thunderstorm that announce it’s arrival with pomp and circumstance, the winter storm is more mysterious and silent. It’s always a …
