Rockridge is a "yuppie" neighborhood in Oakland, close to Berkeley. I can only imagine what it would be like to operate a stereo or guitar store there.
The neighborhood I worked in in Oakland was way worse than this one. Why is...

I see my first corn "stalk" poking through today in my balcony garden. And I have two sunflowers at about 5" each now. No green beans yet.

I just stumbled upon this one as I was trolling YouTube. One time four dudes got out of a car as I was returning from a smoke break and said, "Hey, we got us a white one!" , but I was already near the entrance...

I used some "key words" in recent MyLot posts, like STEREO SPEAKERS and VINTAGE GUITARS. I got a bunch of ads for eBay, vintage guitars, etc, and I was happy.
I also mentioned something like HOT EUROPEAN WOMEN and got to see...

I actually reached my Totally Aggressive MyLot Goal (TAMG) last month. I exceeded my T&A goal by more than 100 pennies! I think I did it through a combination of cereal posting and sheer force of will. Reading Nietzsche really...

I have been following the first Trump criminal trial fairly closely. It's about falsifying documents to pay off Stormy Daniels not to talk about her (I believe) 2006 "romantic" encounter with Donald Trump. Trump was instructing...

For some reason, I was musing about how much fun it would be to have a long conversation with Bruce Cockburn this morning. Some of you may not have heard of him, but he is one of my favorite musicians.
He is still alive, and...

Gas prices have fluctuated rather wildly over the past couple of years here in the San Francisco Bay Area. I think they dropped to a low of about $4.19/gallon a year or so ago at my "discount" gas station, but then rose to $5.69 a...

I'll be heading to Chicago this weekend. It's a High School reunion, but I'm really focused on getting a corned beef sandwich at Morrie's Deli on 57the Street on the South Side, where I grew up.
