words of my neighborhood
given to grumbly growling
and big happy grins.

eclectic personal ramblings
unchecked verbosity
ruminations and pondering

why does the sock monkey love it so?

It seemed somehow that politicians were very important. And yet, anything seemed important about them except their politics.

Thank you, Memepool, for making my day!


The tireless surfers over at Memepool have completely brightened my day with this juicy little link.

I used to keep a couple of bonsai trees myself, until they were stolen from my yard—one of the least fiscally damaging, but most thoroughly irksome crimes of which I have ever been a victim.

I miss those little trees, and the surreal whimsy of CrashBonsai makes me miss them even more. Hee-hee!

My cat has a web presence...


I'm not so obsessed with my pet as to maintain a blog for her.

But the Catbloggers project seemed sufficiently low-key and low-commitment to provide a tiny web presence for my cat whilst avoiding disastrous consquences to my free time and/or dating prospects.

So, go have a look at Mira on our very own Catblogger page.

My Manhattan adventure with models and other fabulous people...


Friday night of my second trip to Princeton was spent out on the town in New York City with ex-spook Cris, his model girlfriend, and a bunch of other modelling-industry people in town for a big conference called IMTA.

The story has been published, along with a photo and complete with typos, over at The Mirror Project.

The rest of the pictures are here.

And I, I am lazy today, and trying to catch up on a lot of backdated stories, so I'm not recreating all of that stuff here on the site.

Enjoy.
