After four days of non-stop action, it’s going to take at least a couple days to rest up… before we do it again this weekend. The past weekend started with cocktails and a Crossgates showing of X-Men 3: The Last Stand with Jen and Alex. It’s always entertaining seeing movies on opening night — and […]

It’s been an exhausting past week. We had the entire outside of the house painted all last week (to go with the inside), with finishing touches going on this week. It might not sound tiring since we didn’t do the painting ourselves, but with trying to work and having the dogs barking every time a […]

As anyone who’s been to our house recently knows, we keep this gem prominently displayed on our fridge. Now I’m proud to share the mullet with the world: I’m not sure about the year — maybe my mom or dad knows — but the back of the photo does say “Nana‘s b-day,” so it would […]

If you haven’t already seen the best music video ever (I Wanna Love You Tender), please do yourself a favor and take a few minutes to watch it. You won’t be sorry. (Thanks, Justin, for the link.)

Back in February I wrote about my ideas for what should be done with the proposed $100 million High Rock Redevelopment — bring a Trader Joe’s and an independent movie theater — and later that month even had a letter on the topic published in the Saratogian. As it turns out, I’m not the only […]

Pretty much in line with how I feel: SFGate.com / Bring On The $6 Gallon Of Gas / It would revolutionize America. It would make us all better humans. But could you handle it?: Here’s what we could do: Give gas discounts to cab drivers (at least initially) and metro transit systems and low-income folks, […]
