Obama settles in...Starting at the ripe traffic infested hour of 6pm, Southern California for Obama Headquarters' opened its doors at 3619 Motor Avenue on the 2nd Floor, they must have known this is a blue state, right?? People and cars were piled up all along Motor and the crowds quickly overflowed the space into the alleyways and streets. After a week of learning more then I cared to about the simple minded republican VP pick Sarah Palin, I was starved for some good vibes and there was no shortage here. My motivation was in high gear as I asserted my burning need to do anything in my power to insure Obama gets elected into office on November 4th. If you... read more
We've all heard the hype.   The teen pregnancy, the anti- environmental stance, the pro drilling policies.   (Although she isn't in bed with "big-oil")  I guess she was against teaching sex ed because she couldn't teach it at home to her own kid.    Hey, I get it, we all make mistakes.     This election should not be about gender or race.   It's about issues- and in this case bad taste or poor judgement.   Can someone get a PR clean up crew in there for damage control.    In this day and age, do you really need to be photographed with a giant grizzly bear under your ass?   Love the giant crab.  (There is a similar... read more
Paris is known for some of the best cuisine in Europe.  Yet, if you want the best Japanese food you should defiantly go to Japan.  In Paris most Japanese restaurants are owned and run by the Chinese or Koreans, real Japanese people usually walk out as soon as they see non-Japanese people in the Kitchen.  Well search no further on the chic rue Saint- Honoré we found an owed and operated family style Japanese restaurant Sapporo. Sapporo is located at 276, rue Saint- Honoré 75001 Paris tel. 01 40 15 98 66 Métro Pyramides.  We knew we found our spot for great Ramen noodles when we witnessed that the place was filled with Japanese tourist.  Our favourites where filled... read more
Is it really September already? Farewell summer!When I was a child,the summers were possibly the worst time because instead of being able to go outside and do nothing,my mother would force my sister and I to stay inside and do math homework.That backfired since I got so angry that I purposely failed math-and piano for that matter after 8 years of lessons,I still cant play anything but the beginning of stairway to heaven. Those were the early days of rebellion.Enough reminiscing from my twilight years...I took ANOTHER camping trip this past weekend with some lovely friends,one being the talented writer, Lesley Arfin.Here's a pic of her and our friend Dan.If you've done your summer reading,you will already know her autobiographical... read more

I don't know whether to be awestruck or disturbed by this invention.    I do know that many of the diseases that were around when I was a kid aren't around anymore thanks to modern medicine.    Some parents ponder whether to vaccinate their children or not.    I think in an urban world you have to, families that don't are irresponsible, selfish and doing their children a disservice. Now you can do it in a cute, safe, and cuddly way.     The amazing pox teddy was designed by Mikael Metthey (Royal College of Art UK).    These cute teddy bears are designed to give kids a natural immunity to the chicken pox.  The toys are impregnated with a weakened strain of the disease... read more
Aside from their other problems, the McCain family suffers from a case of really bad taste and horrible design sense.   Hideous really.   Oh, and did I mention, maybe a backround check on Sarah Palin and her family situation.    Well it's only the republican ticket right?   McCain pieceArchitectural Digest publishes this story of the McCain home, it's big, it's opulent and yes, it's tacky.  How many family photos fit on a baby grand.?   Kachina dolls, Native American figures mixed with shabby chic furniture.   Just goes to prove, money can't buy taste.  Photographs by: Robert Reck... read more
