Linger On

After four days, I still carry the scent of campfire in my hair. This pleases me deeply. Won’t someone please capture this delightful oder in a shampoo?

SIFF Review: Camille

There is a certain target audience for a movie like “Camille”. It is the story of a simple southern girl named Camille (Sienna Miller) who convinces a reluctant petty thief named Silias (James Franco) to marry her. They take off on a honeymoon road trip to Niagara Falls, but, along the way, there is a [...]

NFT Radar: Sidecar for Pigs Peace

Just a sandal’s throw away from the vegan pizzeria Pizza Pi and not one but two head shops, is Sidecar for Pigs Peace. I like to call this area Little Woodstock. Sidecar, a vegan goods store owned by the Pigs Peace Sanctuary, is a vegan treasure trove run by wonderful people working for a worthy [...]

Memorial Day Camping Recap

Esswine is an amazing spot outside of Granite Falls, WA. It is well worth the $60/night price to reserve a private campground which fits up to 25 people and several cars. Dogs welcome. A stone’s throw away from a peaceful river and short driving distance to many transcendent hikes. We were unable to check out [...]

SIFF REVIEW: My Effortless Brilliance

The phrase “You either love [something/someone] or hate [something/someone]” is not only overused, it is often used erroneously. There are very few things which can actually universally inspire such extreme emotions. Nonetheless, I have heard people say that about the star of “My Effortless Brilliance”, musician, author and former Stranger film critic, Sean Nelson. It’s [...]

Goodnight Moon(light)

Questions brought up by TV’s Moonlight whilst watching the series finale. 1. Why are vampires brought into an orgasmic state and vamp out when they drink blood from humans, but can drink blood from a glass like it’s a fine Cabernet? 2. Why are the human lady friends always so appalled by the fact that [...]

Of Bladders and Camera Phones

I have a new blog called Bathroom Wisdom. It’s about the things that people take the time to write or draw in bathrooms. Often, one assumes, while they’re expelling bodily fluids. I find this phenomenon fascinating enough to document pictorially. But I need help! This can’t be a blog about the graffiti in ladies’ rooms [...]

Summer Paid a Visit

This past weekend in Seattle was absolutely gorgeous. B and I made a point to be outside every possible moment because, wouldn’t you know it, it’s raining again today. And will do so until Friday. But then we will presumably have another lovely weekend, just in time for out annual Memorial Day camping trip. Anyway, [...]

Obama/Prime ’08

Yes please. Potential campaign slogan: “A little bit of Energon and a lot of change”. Please post further slogan suggestions in the comments. Other good running mate suggestions found here via one of my new favorite Sloggers.

Multiple Choice Meme

It is from MarkTapioKines. Also, it is hard not to expound in italics. 1. What are you doing with your “economic stimulus” money? [X] Putting it into savings (I’m spending PLENTY of money this year) [ ] Paying off debt [ ] Doing what I’m supposed to with it (i.e. buying stuff, investing, and/or giving [...]
