about me
I'm a smooth pimped-out player from the street who knows how to get mine's!
I am a lucky guy, I always have been. Lately, it's the "new crowd" that makes me feel lucky. I've never had a hard time making new friends, but you all are a rare breed. It's lovely to meet people who aren't afraid to live just a little different than most. Doing things which take a great deal of time and effort, just because it's what you want to do.
I guess I'm not all that surprised that Callahan could attract such a lovely group of folks, it actually makes a lot of sense. I'm just hap...

This was a good test for the new flood control project. The river reached a new record high, but the damage was not as bad as I remember from 1986. It was my 16th birthday at about 11pm when it really hit. I grew up in Alta Heights, which is high enough in the hills to avoid any damage. Within walking distance, at Silverado trail and First st. however, it looked like a boat launch.
So last Friday, 12/30/05, my whole family is out having dinner at Uva, celebrating my cousin's wedding anniv...

Just when you thought Napa had hit rock bottom, the fuckin' Donnas come to town at the county fair! Maybe it's the Donnas who have hit rock bottom, I thought they were better than that. In any case, they fucking ROCKED! I must say, I am rather proud of my home town. Near the end of their set, I could smell the inviting scent of the kind! Also, one ambitious youngster rushed the stage, not bad for a hick town! So don't write Napa off just yet. Even if Hwy 29 becomes Robert Mondavi Hwy. Even th...

Napa can be such a reliable disappointment sometimes. As I was kickin' it at a friend’s house the other night, the neighbors across the street got in a bit of a tussle. It seemed that they had an un-wanted guest, it was almost exciting for like a second. Anyway, after the dude left, the "man of the house" came over to us and extended his apologies. After he left, we went back inside, only to hear him knocking on the door shortly after. It was at this point that he extended a gift of three can...

What the fuck is it about certain things we choose to keep? I've thrown away plenty of clothes in my time, but this fucking shirt man, I don't know what it is about it! I will never get rid of it and I don't know why! Mabye it has something to do with the fact that an ex-girlfriend almost stole it from me like, 15 years ago. Mabye it's all the good times I've had wearing it. I don't know, but I think it has some magical powers or something! If I keep it long enough, I'll probably have them b...

"First the thirst"
Dreamweavers Theatre is celebrating the season of ghouls and goblins with a tongue-in-cheek staging of Tim Kelly's "penny-dreadful" thriller, "The Vampyre."
As one might expect with a playwright who cranked out more than 300 stage works in his ...

Right from the get-go, the energy is out of control! If you're like me, you'll find yourself missing jokes because you're laughing so hard. These guys are all obviously quite comfortable on stage,and it shows. Each cast member brings something uni...
