Pretty ‘Randomm’

I saw this in the parking lot at the grocery store the other day. The site at the URL is also pretty weird, as it seems to (now) be for a commercial painter in Japan. I guess we’ll never know who “Randy” is, the circumstances of his incarceration, or why he should be freed.
There's a New Doctor in Town

There’s a New Doctor in Town

I just wanted to report the appearance of yet another Doctor on the shelves. This one’s Dr. Dynamite, and is uncommonly bland and tasteless. I’m beginning to believe that all Dr. Pepper impostors are actually made from the same exact formula, which is apparently 99% water.
A Trip to the Library with JC Pierric

A Trip to the Library with JC Pierric

Most people don’t realize this, but there’s a huge amount of really cool music out there known as production library stuff. In much the same way that companies and designers use stock photography, there are entire libraries of commercial music libraries out there that directors and producers have used for movies, film, TV commercials, and...

Brady Residence

View Larger Map   Yep, it’s the Brady home as it looks today on Google Street View. More info here, here, and here.
Caution!

Caution!

If you happen to be cruising around Redding with a bag of Hersey’s Kisses, PLEASE beware of this gold Ford minivan.
Cottonwood is Hell

Cottonwood is Hell

(Note: Like so many of my homework assignments, I’m not fully following the directions on this.) How many of you guys have heard of a little film called Hell is for Heroes? You should check it out. Why? Well, it’s a good little WWII movie set on the Siegfried Line in France. It was directed...

NEW TOPIC: Field Trip 2 – Movie Locations

Okay, It’s time we had a new topic that mobilized the Amigos. The weather outside is nice, summer is in the air, and a fresh new assignment is in order. Yes, it’s time for our second field trip, much in the same spirit of the first one we did a few years back. This time...

The Riot

I realize it may be little off-topic, but I wanted to share this. The next time you find yourself drifting off behind the wheel at 2 AM, you’ll want to pump the song at the link below at full volume. The beat from this relatively hard-to-find track has been sampled by the Chemical Brothers and...
I've got to get to Mars

I’ve got to get to Mars

BEADS!

BEADS!

I need the Amigos to help me out with a few things I’ve been trying to figure out for a while: Why are there so many bead stores out there? How does a bead store stay in business if they’re selling… just… beads? It seems that this would be nearly impossible. Is something else going...
Mosquito Fiancee

Mosquito Fiancee

About ten years ago, I had a terrifying nightmare in which I was attacked by a giant mosquito that had a cat’s head. I won’t get into that now, but I may post about it sometime in the future before we move on to the next topic. Needless to say, it left me scarred. Now,...
