Tooth Or Dare
Let me make one thing clear. I would rather do almost anything than go to the dentist.

Soup’s On!
Susan and I had a full day planned yesterday… or at least a partially full day. We were all signed up to help beautify Silver Lake as part of the citywide Big Sunday volunteering project, but a phone call from her boss before 8 a.m. — on a damn Sunday! — instead diverted her into [...]

Morel Majority
Nothing new uncovered in the realm of aged glassware or World War II memorabilia. Instead our latest discovery is of a much more organic variety. A mulch-covered patch of our backyard has sprouted many examples of an alien lifeform such as this strapping individual here:
