As long as I’m posting movie art, check this one out. I’ve been getting substantial traffic to the site from people looking for info on this movie. Diane Lane looks pretty great.
The Descent is on its way to American theaters at last. And the ad campaign is taking a bold Philippe Halsman approach. Check out the one-sheet: A coworker tells me about this poster yesterday, describing it as a weird, interpretive dance image. Real artsy. One look, of course, and I realize there’s no interpretive dancing […]
Guelaguetza Restaurant is a great place to get Comida Oaxanena in Koreatown. Outside, on Olympic at Normandie, there are Korean signs and banks and restauants in every direction. Inside, it’s an Oaxacan paradise. I’m there to celebrate Debbie’s birthday. There are fifteen of us, including several cats from Amoeba. Remember how I said just a […]
NPR’s Day To Day airs a story today about Highway 140 in California, which threads the tiny town of Mariposa on the way into Yosemite. Back in April a rockslide buried the road east of town. Rocks are still falling today. It’s proving to be the clot that’s starving the town of its lifeblood. the […]
Taking a brief break from work here at Argentum, I lean back in my chair and clos my eyes. When I open them again I’m struck by the amount of jumble on my typical desktop. Click the thumbnail for full-sized mayhem.
Yep. It’s formal Friday on the Mezz. So I break out my formal wear.
The other day I get my greedy little hands on a copy of the remastered, re-issued edition of Tales From Topographic Oceans by Yes. I’ve never heard it so clear and clean and gorgeous. It’s been lovingly repackaged with some nifty liner notes and a fine wraparound sleeve of Roger Dean’s famous artwork. Rhino, the […]
Just a quick update: I’ve begun a Coachella set over at Flickr. Click here to check it out. Many more pics (as well as captions and notes and other good things like that) are on the way.

At the risk of taxing your bandwidth, I’m gonna post another thousand words today. I still feel like one of the backpackers in Hostel after spending some time in that abandoned hospital, but I’m at work and drinking coffee, so I’m suffering from the illusion that I’m on the mend. Here’s a photo I snapped […]

What’s happening on the Mezzanine? The Amoeba Music Mezzanine is getting a makeover. So print this up and study it. Things are changing. They’ll be at it till four this morning. I’m safely home. Ready for bed. Goodnight.

I was gonna post about my missing manager tonight. I was gonna post about the famous Footprints Proverb (one of my faves.) I was gonna post about cooking rainbow chard with garlic slivers. But instead I’m gonna watch The Dave Chappelle Show, work on the new script and deal with the soreness of the filling […]
I’m on my way back today folks. So hide the silverware and all that. It’s been the longest week I’ve had in some time. It’s the key to eternal life, I think. Keeping busy. Don’t slow down. Avoid ruts. You’ll live three or four lifetimes. This is the sky from the driveway of my parents’ […]
By coincidence, my brother calls me when we’re downtown Santa Fe this afternoon, so he checks the plaza webcam. There we are (I’m the one on the right doing the weird dance.)
One more photo from Boulder. This guy’s making fun balloon animals. He has just asked the girl what she wants. I don’t know what she answers. But I would have asked him to make me Ebola.

In need of a break, I’ve taken a week off work and hopped on a plane to New Mexico. I grew up here, so it’s sort of a homecoming for me. At the same time, my parents have sold their San Luis Obispo house and are exactly in the middle of a move back. My […]
