Going back to posting art twice a week here. We were crazy to stop. Really. This squirrel might apologize on our behalf; he's manners stashed in that suit somewhere, next to the spare hazelnuts. Continue reading

And in case you don't visit the origin pond, here's another irregular update on what's caught my attention. To quote me: 1:45 AM Halestorm -- their The Strange Case Of... album is on constant play in my car and computer now. New Joan Jett album upcoming -- yeah! Algarve Cup,... Continue reading

We are becoming big fans of The Dollyrots. The crush started with a Blackheart Records digital mix tape and developed as we listened to their music and followed their adventures on Twitter. We missed them when they came to Pennsylvania last year, but last month, they had a StageIt concert, played half of their first album and it was a blast. So we already have our ticket to the next one on February 28th, which is love song themed. We're excited. And yes, this blog post is a blatant attempt to sway The Dollyrots (Hi Kelly, Hi Luis) to pick... Continue reading

Ok, we're tired of the seasonal colds and the seasonal sneezing and the seasonal coughing...so we're going to put on those pointy hats, start focusing on Santa and boost our immune systems with chuckling and merriment, darn it, starting with our favorite songs that mention the jolly old soul. We may also slip in a hint or two about what might fit nicely under the tree -- if a certain rosy cheeked fellow should happen to read this. Also, we've been nice (mostly) but you already know that ; ). And we wish the very warmest of holidays to you.... Continue reading

If you missed us, we plead: distracted by Australian Women's Soccer(we get points for originality, right?). Exciting things happening there, check it out. Good luck to the Matildas against Hong Kong tomorrow as they go for qualifying for EAFF Women’s East Asian Cup 2013. And best of luck also to Canberra United, currently in Japan for The International Women's Club Championship. Yes, we will soon be sharing with you our favorite teams, once you get a chance to pick your own. In the US, follow along by searching #wleague on Twitter in the late night Friday hours. Watching games scroll... Continue reading

I don't tell jokes at parties. Sometimes, I tell this story instead. Scene: Northwestern University, my senior year, a room at the Foster-Walker Complex, January 4th, 1988, the day before Gayle's birthday, in the room occupied by her boyfriend at the time (their relationship would end in two days or...
