Hostile Takeover
Ms Showalter, CEO of the bellwether software and web-management company, SoftWeb Inc. knew how to ward off the hostile takeover by some of her own board members. She met with them privately, one by one in back of the corporate offices and beat the crap out of them.

I love it when you crank up the 'phone and start dancing about. And I would pay SILLY money to enter your little nightclub. Your brother was probably listening to Dire Straits. You win!

Don't Bring Lulu
Digging around in one of my boxes of old photographs the other day I came across this endearing snap: It reminded me of myself. It would drive my brother nuts when I was a kid and insisted on listening to old records. He was appalled when I set our lounge room up as a 'nightclub' and charg...

What a fantastic find! I can totally relate to what you say about aloneness sometimes being good and sometimes being horrible.
I love that you only discovered the book title after a while. It's a bit like that creepy moment in Blow Up!

Some Christmas Reading
I came across this sombre photo some time ago and it just sat amongst other nondescript snaps in a large box until one day I was idly sifting through the box and decided to take a closer look. I think the reason I bought the photo in the first place was because it seemed so quiet. It remi...

A Country Mile
I don't mind living in a warm dry climate. But the dread of the inevitable hot weather turns my mind to thoughts of autumn. It's a long way off yet, I know; a few extended heatwaves, the loss of some lawn, a massive power bill, but I think this is what I will wear come April: I am a big fan...
I love the contrast between the downward droop of his handsome mo' and the kicky wings of his little dutch girl hat.
I agree. There needs to be more dressing up, I say. Today, I am appearing as Mamie Van Doren..

What Your Grandfather Got Up To
I came across a series of photographs (real photograph postcards really) in a junk shop some years ago featuring a troupe of men dressed up in various costumes. Obviously a music group, a glee club type thing. In most of the photographs, there is one guy in some costume, such as a rustic farme...

I know what you mean about feeling alive. Its a shame we have to waste so much time on all this other nonsense! But at least you have the happy memory to get you through..
Love this photo, by the way. I would love to own this kind of autobubbling outfit!

Take Me Back
I have a shockingly poor memory. It's a miracle I find my way to work every day. Some things just don't stick. But my memory is kind to me and will occasionally feed me a glimpse of forgotten moments. These glimpses are unsolicited, uncontrollable and unpredictable. Today, while sitting in ...
