Just Yoking: April 2008
http://justyoking.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 20, 2008. I've moved four times since I was 18. Big Deal. I've had friends who have relocated three times as much in half the time, so I don't consider myself overly-nomadic. Nevertheless, I still. Get the same question when I show up in a new place: "Why are you here? I never have a good answer. Twice the answer has been "school." That works. Once it was "for the money." Anyone who has ever lived in Atlanta should have the same answer, even if they're in denial. Arizona was, in our minds, ...

Just Yoking: The Family Gun
http://justyoking.blogspot.com/2007/04/family-gun.html
Friday, April 27, 2007. With so much talk about guns these days, I find myself with a lot of strong opinions (who, me? About who should and shouldn't have them. Well, speaking of people who shouldn't have them, I thought I'd tell a story about the Brown family gun. So, in the beginning, the gun lived under my parents bed. Made sense - when the burglar showed up, my mom could reach under the bed and simply shoot him. Years later, the gun moved out of our house and onto our sailboat, the S.S. Kiki. While o...

Just Yoking: On To Oregon - The 50 States Series
http://justyoking.blogspot.com/2007/10/on-to-oregon-50-states-series.html
Monday, November 5, 2007. On To Oregon - The 50 States Series. Long white hair, a New Yorker from way back, a pothead.but now, a pothead with a raging hiatal hernia. For it, and moved to Oregon to provide this 5 year old boy named Leon with a Dad - a Dad who was not full of fire and brimstone. One who liked to hang out by the creek, carving wooden statues of a vaginal nature. Liebler wanted this kid to have a fighting chance. With Demi Moore and Independence Day. Which we actually watched on Independence...

Just Yoking: Playing Swanee
http://justyoking.blogspot.com/2007/08/piano-lessons.html
Friday, August 10, 2007. You'd never know it now, but I spent ten years of my life taking weekly piano lessons. That's roughly 520 lessons! Put me in front of a piano now and I might play the same dirge that I was working on back when I stopped taking lessons at age 15. Or, I might piddle around and play a little part of Swanee. By George Gershwin - lately, I find myself tapping it out on my son's Fisher-Price alligator xylophone. It needs some work.to say the least. Ava Rosenberg was next. She taugh...

Just Yoking: July 2007
http://justyoking.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 31, 2007. To Share Or Not To Share. Is there anything written about this in the 10 Commandments? How about the Qu'aran? TO SHARE OR NOT TO SHARE? That is the question. What is does is make mince-meat out of poo. Right? Come upstairs once, fine. But, then go and buy one! And while you're at it, get some other personal items that you might not like to borrow from others: Prep H. With the long applicator, Tucks pads. Later on, when my awkward lonely landlord tries to return it, I'm not sure if...

Just Yoking: May 2007
http://justyoking.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 20, 2007. After my past 3 posts, I need to reassure my readers that I don't need a prescription for Lexipro. Okay, this is kind of funny in and of itself: I am becoming certified to teach Pilates. Foolishly, I am under the impression when registering that I am actually going to learn what I've set out to learn. I should know better. That "beginner's mind" screws me again. Call it Pavlovian response. Because I hate to drive in L.A. and still have to read each line of directions from Go...Try n...

http://mrkittyeatsatlanta.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Mr Kitty Eats Atlanta. I prowl around Atlanta eating at various eating establishments. Monday, November 14, 2011. Mr Kitty Eats Tulum, Mexico Part 1. I had a chance to vacation in Tulum, Mexico. Of course, I couldn't wait to eat some delicious, local cuisine in Tulum. Mrs. Kitty and I went to a lot of places ranging from tourist traps and places favored by the locals. Anyway, here are the places I ate in Tulum city. The man doing his thing. The glorious al pastor burning on its spit (trompo). The tacos a...

Squirrels & Beer: The Problem With Pork
http://squirrelsnbeer.blogspot.com/2010/10/problem-with-pork.html
Wednesday, October 27, 2010. The Problem With Pork. Not a great picture. but hey, it was a great dinner. Ossabaw pork tenderloin, cooked to a rosy medium from Nature's Harmony Farm. I'll preface this post by saying that though backed by a few factual bits, most of this post is editorial. Most people have had a pork chop. Unfortunately many of those same people have had bad pork chops. It's not the pigs fault really, or even the cook's fault to some extent, it is the sCaRy. Done and here we are today....
