Rainy Saturday Morning
Hello friends. I’m writing you today from my favorite rainy Saturday morning hangout, Stone Creek Coffee. The cinnamon rolls here are delicious. The end of my work week was rough. I didn’t have the time to write. Here’s an update of my leisurely activities: Tony and I went to Best Buy again. I purchased Air’s “Talkie Walkie”. Bryan and I...

Hot! Hot! Hot!
Last night I joined Dan, Jen and some of their friends for dinner at Borrego’s, a newer mexican restaurant located next to the Milwaukee Ale House. I was feeling a bit adventurous so i ordered the Camarones á la Diabla which was shrimp served in a spicy garlic tomato sauce served with papas and drunken beans. If i’m not mistaken,...

The Apartment
On the Almost Famous DVD commentary track, Cameron Crowe cites The Apartment as his favorite movie of all time. It’s mine too. 1960’s Best Picture starring Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine will be on Turner Movie Classics tomorrow night at 7:00. It’s very, very good. The movie is funny and charming. The leads have perfect chemistry. Fred MacMurray makes a...

S-a-t-u-r-d-a-y night
Saturday night, a lot of fun. Sunday morning, not so much. Here’s a brief overview: Dan and I meet Bryan at La Fuente early in the afternoon. The restaurant got rid of its parking lot to make room for additional outdoor seating. Not knowing this, we almost park in their new patio. Drinks, tacos and “nachos” are ordered. Potawatomi is...

Van Helsing
Last night, I was in the mood to see a movie. It was between Troy and Van Helsing. I decided on the Hugh Jackman monster movie. My expectations weren’t very high. I was surprised at how much i enjoyed myself. Van Helsing is the type of movie that’s made to be shown at a Drive-In theater in the middle of...

Field Trips
This week, Tony and I have gone on a couple of field trips. Tuesday’s trip was to Best Buy. Tony bought the new Morrissey CD. The first track, “America Is Not The World”, is a “so bad it’s good” type of song. It’s worth a listen. Today’s trip was to Sullivan’s Cigar Shoppe in Cudahy. Not much of a selection....

Eighth Grade
I went to my parents over the weekend to celebrate my Dad’s birthday. I was looking though some of my old things and i came across the 1986 Panther Power Greendale Intermediate yearbook. Here are a few of the thoughts that my eighth grade classmates left for me (all original punctuation, grammer and spelling): “Chuck, Dont jack off to much...

Pixies, Stogies and the Circus Ladies
I joined Bryan to wait in line for Pixies tickets this morning. It’s been rainy and miserable. Thankfully, we were allowed to wait inside the lobby. Bryan and I arrived around 11:00, tickets went on sale at noon. The Milwaukee Theatre’s box office has three windows. At around quarter to twelve, two women walk up to one of the windows...
