Somewhat more than a year ago, a co-worker was leaving, and Rudy’s Cafe was proposed as the farewell lunch destination. I was way psyched, probably because the cod tacos sounded somewhat like the catfish tacos that Polly’s Cafe used to serve — one of my all-time favorites. We wound up going to Redbones instead.

We were literally calculating an initial offer to make on the condo we’ve liked best so far, and late last night it suddenly went inactive on all the real estate web sites. I had a dream that at 3:21 am the property went back on the market. I woke up from the dream and it […]

The best section had one head (presumably) making a witchita-witchita sort of noise at […]

I will start no more than two on-line Boggle sessions a day (one a.m., one p.m.)
