"It isn't given to us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world. They will not be cured by our most efficacious drugs or slain with our sharpest swords." — Francis Scott FitzgeraldMusic

Favorite Things.
Maria had kittens and string. Well, this morning, I bring you Cayucas and Ducks, and news from my favorite place to drink tea, the Kasbah. Take that, Maria. Take your pick: The lovely S.M. Hutchins is the only person I have ever heard of who impulse bought ducks, and I am so glad…Read the Rest
Ginny & the She-Woolfs
About two weeks ago, we had a storm. It was dark, rainy, and catastrophe-ridden. Well, at least, for a certain giant magnolia tree in my front yard, it was catastrophe-ridden. The tree, which is host to some sort of bizarre fig vine (a story for another post) just couldn’t handle the weather. It dropped a…Read the Rest

I told you: Sit and Relax.
Ok, I just couldn’t resist sharing this one with you – Why stop at Magical Trevor when there is a whole wide world of video weirdness out there? I’m not sure who this Luang Por is, or what his teachings have to do with pseudo-psychedelic singing cajun-cowboy-alligators, but I’m loving it. And the video kinda…Read the Rest

There Are No Words.
I think I’ve mentioned before that I love bad dance movies. But the preview for “The FP” leaves even me speechless (mainly because I am laughing so hard I can barely breathe.) This is either an elaborate joke that somehow found the funding to become a movie, the worst screenplay ever given the green light…Read the Rest

Songs for Weequashing
Weequashing: n. The act of spearing eels by night, from a canoe, with the aid of a torch or lantern. Canoes? At Night? With Torches? Eels or no, this sounds like an awesome activity. I’m not much for fishing, but I could make an exception for weequashing. Obviously, this is a sport…Read the Rest
