Right on, Matt G1! Same blog all over car-free trips, bike heaven, loves plugging in these beasts. Go figure...

This is the saddest thing I've read to date about the financial crisis. I'd have thought he'd be making big bux on the residuals from those great commercials with Seinfeld...

The new building's less than 1/3 the size of the old one. And no showers for the hikers. Thanks Dept of the Interior!...

Here's a tip, MvB - while you're at the Rep, steer clear of the Mainstage where the 3 Musketeers stinker is showing. We attending last night. To fair, the audience ate it up, cheering lustily then...

I must admit a love-hate with Whole, as I suspect, do most shoppers. Despite their rep, they actually are cheaper for some items. In fact, I believe their pricing of portabellas brought the QFC price...

Great deal for us - perhaps not so much for you. congrats...

Best of Luck, Kim! Sounds like a great new gig for you. You'll be missed....

Guess you're right, ruff. The one this this last week taught us is that the capitalist system itself, and all the institutions involved in supporting it (of course, except the govt), will always be ...

Good grief, was there ever a time where Heart was considered cool - or even mildly interesting?? No wonder they're playing with the uber-exciting Journey. At least Cheap Trick had that great LP with ...

As someone who grew up in New England, and went to school in upstate NY, the Mohawk series always struck a deep chord in me. Sorry I couldn't have been there to see him speak, but then again, I'd pr...

which is done in blue bathroom tile and has a sewer grate in the floor. Ah, no, it's a swimming pool. That's why there's a diving board - what does your bathroom look like, anyway? White rusted pipe ...

We've already had the 'imagine no religion' billboard. That proved popular....
