Boccelism Backlash: WYB!! has joined the movement

February 14, 2007

Monday night we had our second bocce match of the season against Boccelism. We were down a player this week without Daya, so we knew it would be a tough match, especially because Boccelism is quite good. They may have won the last tournament, but I am really not sure, and quite frankly don’t really [...]

Who’s got their money on Deputy Glitters?

May 8, 2006

Saturday morning started early with a trip to Prospect Park with Karen and Sasha for early morning off-leash hours.

Air Guitar Fever. Catch it!

April 26, 2006

Apparently Spring is Air Guitar season. After Dennis and I caught Air Guitar Nation (quick synopsis: a documentary following the first US entrants into the Air Guitar World Championships which are held yearly on a tiny Finnish island.) while we were at SXSW. The movie was a blast so when I found out it was [...]
