Okay, Nick, fess up.

What kind of insane death-cult ritual were you doing over there? Did something go terribly awry at the Beltane party?

A young male deer that found its way onto Lido Isle in Newport Beach was corralled by animal control officers Friday and taken to Crystal Cove State Park, where it was released.

( A deer got WHERE? )

Please adjust your dogs

According to the Los Angeles Times, chihuahuas are out and pugs are in for the tiny-dog-carrying set.

Those of you who were raising hundreds of chihuahuas in hydroponic tanks in your closets have just found yourselves at the top of the market; sorry about that. If you're lucky, you can unload the li'l barkers to clueless social climbers in the Inland Empire before they get the message.

Otherwise, it's chili night!

Stupid name, kinda neat service. If you don't 'mind people knowing where you are, that is. (I don't).

those crazy robo puppeteers did it again

...with the giant robot elephant and the huge little-girl marionette and the crashed spaceship. It's just as awesome as when they did it in France.

SHIT

Grant McLennan died. I really disliked the Go-Betweens the first time I heard them. Took me ten years to appreciate them. Now I won't see him play! Rats. :(

skate and/or destroy

As I was entering the hardware store yesterday there were some 12ish-year-old boys outside loitering. They looked at me and I said "Hey what's up" and a couple of them said "Hey" and then I went into the store.

One of them called out "Hey..." to me and I turned around. The kid asked "Did you used to skate?"

"Yeah," I said.

"I thought so," he said knowingly, "because of your style."

I grinned and and they grinned back and I went into the store.

I guess he was right. I was wearing Vans classics, jeans, a t-shirt, checked pendleton overshirt, and a tiny stingy brim straw hat.
