McClose

Ah press night diner, mostly because it's right on the corner.

Lying Rodent

The mouse has been telling me the batteries are critically low...for four weeks now. I think it's a conspiracy between the Logitech and Duracell to sell more batteries.

Bucking The Cold

A warm treat on a cold and rainy day.

Earth Hour

Everything in the house is off and unplugged with the exception of the refrigerator and our Tivo. Mari is reading her Kindle by candlelight and I a few magazines. The dogs are doing their part to conserve energy by sleeping.

No Power Hour(s)

Mari and I are observing Earth Hour tonight, and Mother Nature decided to add her two cents by having a lightning storm knock out power from about 6:20 until 7.

Chicken Check

La Hacienda check art.

Chain Chain Chain

I was a victim of marketing on this one. Never heard of the author, or the book, but the display at Barnes & Noble hooked me. 80 pages in and it's really good so far. It's set in a steampunk style city completely built on a series of giant chains hanging over an abyss.
