It’s been a while since I talked about local blogs. I haven’t mentioned that there are some new bloggers in town I’ve been reading and have added to my blog family… so let’s take a moment and meet the new bloggers in town.Local celebrity musician Cesareo Garasa of bands Karmahitlist, Rocky Nash and Mento Buru has started his own blog. He reflects about the music scene from within its very core

“Heelllooo.” I said sleepily into the phone Sunday morning.“Hi Girly!” My ex-mother-in-law’s sweet voice sang in my ears.After two weeks of trying to reach her by phone, she finally got through to let me know that they were ok. I had written her an email asking her to call me. She was driving from Texas back to their home in Gulfport Mississippi-- what was left of their home anyway. My

Saturday evening I went down to the Empty Space to see Los Angeles artist and musician Michael Biagiotti’s art exhibit: I Got the Shakes and his band Drowse. His urban punk rock attitude influenced oil paintings were bold, colorful, abstract, and beautiful. I wanted one. But art wasn’t in my budget this month. I did get to buy a smaller print version of my favorite piece Radiate Love and took a

I’m not a Techy. Not an electronic techy nor a computer techy, an automobile techy or any kind of techy at all. I’m what you would call ‘techy challenged’.For the life of me I could never hook up the TV, DVD, VCR, Cable box and Stereo and make them all communicate and work together. I can’t even program the VCR to record while I’m gone. Forget TiVo I haven’t even attempted that yet. I do well
