Kobe Doin’ Work, People Doing Art

It is supposed to be pretty cruddy today, but that shouldn’t stop you from trying to weather the weather at the 2nd annual dance parade.  But in case you don’t want to go outside and be reminded of how self-conscious you are, here are some indoor activities that are pretty

Get Some Satisfaction

Let me be clear, this is not a post about maximizing your response rate on Craigslist’s erotic services, which under new terms will probably be exactly the same, only with more thinly-guised code wordplay (“50 green roses for a mouth massage”).   Nor is it about other accesible forms of literal

Another BYOB Restaurant Finder

It’s Booze-day Tuesday, but instead of featuring a bar like Welcome to the Johnsons, here is a little BYOB love that I picked up from the Thrillist cathouse.  BYOB spots are great for many reasons,  including avoidance of  hassle of last night at a bar.  Actually, I didn’t really do
