consoling the swami: Vengeance is mine
http://consolingtheswami.blogspot.com/2010/06/vengeance-is-mine.html
Thursday, June 17, 2010. 8 am walking my 6/7 pound dog on leash. Round the corner comes a woman with an all-terrain baby stroller, followed by a large un-leashed dog, who sees my dog and comes bounding toward me and my dog. I pick my dog up in my hands, and say:. ME: Your dog should be on a leash. ME: It's posted right there (pointing to sign that is eye level, permanent and iterated at both end of the park, which is approximately 18 feet away from her.) It's the first thing on the sign. It if I want to.

consoling the swami: Here's how it's done
http://consolingtheswami.blogspot.com/2010/06/heres-how-its-done.html
Friday, June 18, 2010. Here's how it's done. This is not an accident, this osmotic glomming on to all things of the lifestyle angle. It is purposeful and driven by advertising and desired reader demographics. But it is not news. I mean "news" as edifying, substantive, and worthy of conveying. For instance, here, in yesterday's NYT, is a front page article, which to me is archetypal of its "life style" content: Trophy Hunters: With Their Eye on Interiors. That is the fun! June 18, 2010 at 1:13 PM. Excelle...

consoling the swami: June 2010
http://consolingtheswami.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 22, 2010. I think I am going to play an endless loop of "The Story of O" on streaming Netflix, volume really loud, through my open windows for my neighbors' enjoyment. I really need to move. Also, kudos to Netflix for offering only the dubbed English version of this film. Labels: vengeance is mine; wait to you see my exit letter. Friday, June 18, 2010. Here's how it's done. Like my fellow blogger Lori, source it yourself when it comes to life style. Follow not the tastemaker. Then you know ...

consoling the swami: On being a snob
http://consolingtheswami.blogspot.com/2010/06/on-being-snob.html
Thursday, June 10, 2010. On being a snob. Herewith, is a quote from the article, regarding the attendees who have come to preview Mrs. Kluge's household contents to be put up at auction:. Not the rudest thing you have ever heard; the anonymous "some" who have "suggested" that you'd know a vulgar person lived in the house? Excuse me, pardon me, forgive me, if I may: who is vulgar here? Here is the entire New York Times article. Labels: fabulous household contents not my own. June 10, 2010 at 9:33 AM.

consoling the swami: March 2010
http://consolingtheswami.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 28, 2010. The problem with going home is that my family is there. This is a picture of my father taking advice from me. I need LazyLo's sarcasm font right now. Tomorrow, my 10 year old son and I fly to Pittsburgh to spend time with my parents and my almost 40 year old brother who lives with them and will never. ever. ever. move out. The baby of the family gets treated like a prized gem of rare provenance and the eldest (moi) is treated like a commodity in a declining industry. And so as I s...

consoling the swami: April 2010

Friday, April 30, 2010. Extra ketchup sauce, please. Oh, and chopsticks too. Lorraine and I ate at a Chinese restaurant that was in a strip mall that was next to a store that was called:. Ask me how it went. Well, we went into the restaurant, despite the signage next door, because. Of the menu posted in its window. Here is the free-standing version, to double entice prospective patrons who make it through the front doors:. Special No. 2 is the ketchup sauce. But I think we should re-jigger the contest: r...
