on the waterfront

Anybody want to chip in?  I'm not sure about today but back in the day this little area was a happening artistic community.  As i was reading the NO TRESPASSING signs I wondered if they help to keep the tourists out.
And speaking of 'keep out', keep the Scientology docu out of your que.  Not ezzackly P.U., more like 'meh'.

root beer floats

Still no tour or shows or anything...2busy looking at my nice new website, fixin' up some root beer floats and beginning this evening's entertainment.

but what's the difference between throwback thursday and flashback friday? and anyway isnt today saturday?

I've gone Instagram nuts. I follow a few dogs, particularly German shepherds (Hans, who has funny ears) and blue Australian cattle dogs (Lupe! She lives with a rabbit named Buns and a black cat named Barbara).  Monday is Muttbuttmonday, Tuesday is Tongueouttuesday. I think it's weird that ppl refer to themselves as the dogs' mom and dad.  And the dogs r their "children".
Then there are all the surfers. The movies they post r, as they say, "awesome, breh!" Saturdaynightrecords, u get to see all the vinyl ppl r listening to.  Usually the shot includes the front LP cover and the turntable.

what does cream cheese have to do with it?

This is me with The Unknown Comic. No bag so he had to turn away from the cam. For real. When I met him backstage after his performance at the Boarding House in San Francisco he signed his poster (on the bag) "Thanks for having my baby and by the way I love what you do with cream cheese."

Bar Stool Walker - September Song

Here it is kids, another new Barstool Walker.  Hats off/kudos/thumbs up/aight guys!

r cassettes really coming back?

Are cassettes making a comeback? If so, it's a trend that 4 sure i dont get. I hated cassettes even back when. So hard to advance or go back and then that thing u had to do with a pencil when the tape became unravelled.
At Discount Records in Bloomington there were these two kooky customers who pronounced 'cassette' as 'case-a-set'.  No matter how many times i said 'cassette' they would still say 'case-a-set.'
Ppl in Indiana did have a funny way of talkin'.  Former ACC spouse, himself a Hoosier, pronounced 'Washington' as 'Warshington' and i would have to say to him "Bruce Anderson, there is no R in Washington."

shitcan

Walked along the Sausalito waterfront today---been pretty good at keeping to a goal of a daily 5mile walk.
Still no tour or shows or anything...2busy u know, just trying to keep moving.

mama put on that party dress

Ooops, had this set up for yesterday for THROWBACKTHURSDAY but didnt get around to posting. This guy could really crack me up.  I loved hanging around with him,  he would mutter the funniest tidbits then go back to twitching.  Just looked him up on FB, apparently he is still with us.  Hi there LT!!!
Today's excitement: R's most recent LYNDA.com offering is now up.  Congratulations R!
Still no tour or shows or anything...2busy holding my breath until the final JINX episode.

so unbelievable OH!

Shit i just hurt my neck dancing to EMF. That song, what a groove it is.
During afternoon coffee today the NTD staff had a discussion about groove. U have no choice but to dance when u hear Unbelievable or Give It Up but not so with Turd, er, Blurred Lines. Jeez what a dud of a song. Anyway that doesnt have anything 2do with the case but the outcome and why the jury arrived at their decision is v interesting;RWS may write an article about it for LYNDA.com, will keep u posted on that.
And speaking of blurred lines, been looking at a fan's blurry pix from the Suicide show the other nite at Webster Hall. First i thought "oh that's too bad, they're blurry" but then realized that hmmmm maybe blurry wasnt necessarily a bad thing in this instance if u catch muh driff. Hey they're not alone, i could benefit from having one of those blurry blue dots on my face,  u know, like permanently.
So anyway, yeah, my neck.  Oh well, that's what happens when u try to show off in front of your one&only.

newness

Hello.  Still no tour or shows or anything...2busy watching movies and attempting small home improvement project. Oops, hit a snag. How the f*%k do u get this offa here anyway?

no movie, just the theater

On a tour of Alameda the other day we stepped inside the Alameda movie theater for a quick lookaround. Wow.
The town of Alameda is totally flat, and right at sea level,  so different than San Francisco and the greater Bay Area in general.  Not sure where one would go in case of flooding there.

gimme some

Gave a homeless man two tangerines today, he was wearing an orange t-shirt. While handing him the tangerines i thought of Prokofiev's The Love for Three Oranges.
He thanked me then put his fist up for me to bump and said "Gimme some."

look up part1

Spectacular, colorful bling all over the hillsides and neighborhoods.  Spring in Cali!

look up part2

someday my meal will come

Last in a series of dental appts scheduled for tomorrow, here's hoping i'll be saying goodbye to the guacamole applesauce mashed potato tapioca butterscotch pudding diet.
After the appt Ima eat up a storm and be happy about it.
That's fish tacos in the picture, with mango/radish salsa and black beans, carrot juice/beet-apple juice. I got food on the brain! Giddy with excitement and anticipation about ordering these tacos soon. Just a bike ride away!
