Call for help

I wish you could just assume that all investigators were as good as Marvin Zindler.

Random thought biking home: What was it like living in 1950s Sacramento as a 70+ year old immigrant of modest means from Eastern Europe?

Apropos for a Monday

Somehow got to Fire Walk with Me last and I think that was a good thing. Time to make a cup of Good Morning America

Coming this summer: What's that spooky sound on the radio? Just Vampira and some Misfits...

Historic women - Thee Headcoatees

Friend who had never seen a cover band before remarked-after seeing tributes to The Cure and The Smiths- "It's like karaoke but with really good bands."

Are the people who put their raw denim in the freezer the same folks who never wash their cast iron?

The Chemex - Best way to make black coffee. Change my mind.

"I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready..."

Not surprisingly, they no longer offer the rock cuisine or those (comparatively) rock bottom prices.

Gar Woods: Carnelian Bay (North Lake Tahoe) watering hole and tourist hot spot named after some really cool wooden boats from the 30s and 40s. Menu cover from the late 80s.

Where's that 'life balance' modern technology was supposed to allow us?

Even in California, it seems like absolutely nothing was learned from the last five years.

Big takeaways from Sacramento movie trailer: actually looks fun/funny and I need this cardigan

Hello Round Corner!

The trouble I had with making an actual go of cartooning was that I kept on drawing Garfield and other characters that weren't my own. It took a long time to find my characters, and when I did, it was the result of a Cinnamon Toast Crunch-fueled delirium and fortunately having a pencil close by.

Goodbye annoying Substack newsletters

"Thirty years ago, the best restaurant in Seattle was Labuznik, run with an iron fist by Peter Cipra. He butchered his own meats (and, they would murmur, some of his staff)."

RIP Nona Fahrvernügen Mecklenberg

The Cactus Blossoms sound like Hank Williams covering the Everly Brothers.

The Georgia coffee commercials were good, but what if LeVar had stopped by the set one day...

Flat broke but we do it style!

Life! Life is like a lime It's tart and tangy Sweet And ooh so sublime Quiet Speechless like a mime Bold and noisy like a crime Don'tyoudarewastemytime 'cos I can STOP *bongos* On a dime -Beret Girl, An Extremely Goofy Movie

What's next, surfing bears??

The coziness of cartooning in a cardigan cannot be overstated.

Sending a valentine out to Uncle Junior and all at @chanceswithwolves.bsky.social - music that makes me feel like I'm driving through the desert on the way to outer space. Tune in and bug out!!

2020 was the last good year (!!) for the Toyota Tacoma. While it wasn't the small, spunky truck that everybody secretly still really wants, it also wasn't a blocky menace with the charisma of a cheese grater.

Forget Sanka, back on coffee IV.

The only thing I got out of a trip to the mall this afternoon is further confirmation that (to borrow from David Foster Wallace) it's a supposedly fun thing I'll never do again.

Just when I think I can't love @kanopyofficial.bsky.social any more than I do, they go and add Sonic the Hedgehog to the lineup. #kanopy #gottagofast #sonicthehedgehog #freeculture #libraries
