Friendship is a verb. It takes effort.

I have a friend who I talk about ALL the time. But she is busy. And I am busy and since we live a whole 14 miles away from each other it can be difficult to actually get together. We try. We really try…but something important always comes up and we always let each other [...]

Jenny of Brain Bunnies recently did some work for a story in Brougton Quarterly (wonderful travel mag) about the great iconic dinosaur in the California desert. This is her photo that I stole from her site. So while walking around Disney’s California Adventure (DCA) this weekend I took a shot of its knock-off. All of [...]

Jesus is a friend of mine. And he digs Ska music too…

What happens when you mix shiny happy Christians, ska music, a church choir (who is pinned behind the piano to hide their dorkiness and lack of rhythm) a killer base line, and the second service keyboard player with the tuning button dialed to ‘Organ’? You get this little jewel from about 1980. Go on push [...]

Swedish Rock Band #8 : The Milles

swedish-dance-bands-014

While I realize this looks more like a brochure for a touring gymnastic group (Like Cirque de Gaylay)I assure you this is indeed another Swedish Rock Band Album cover. We’ve got The Thinker in the middle and the guy in the center back is channeling Rick Springfield while ‘I’m-so-cool-I-gotta-wear-shades’ boy is leaning back on him [...]
