10,000 Maniacs

nobody@vox.com(Caboozy) — Sun, 06 May 2007 15:39:30 -0400

In the past few weeks (months) I've been preparing for a big move. Literally, a big move back to Chicago. It was suggested to me that in the process of preparing and packing, I go through my 200 cd changer, pull everything, and start from scratch...

nobody@vox.com(Caboozy) — Tue, 20 Mar 2007 13:48:50 -0400

When you go out to eat, how do you pick where to go? Submitted by Kristine. Usually based on the wine list: who has a good selection, if I'm in the mood for white v. red. If its for more casual food, I usually let him pick it so I can save my ...

QotD: Mmm...Snacks

nobody@vox.com(Caboozy) — Sat, 03 Mar 2007 22:25:47 -0500

What are your three favorite snacks? Submitted by Sunscreem. Cereal: frosted mini wheats, raisin bran, always best with skim milk to minimize guilt. Soynut butter and jelly sandwich on toast: Now that I developed a peanut/nut allergy I crave pe...

No brain hemorrhage

nobody@vox.com(Caboozy) — Sun, 04 Feb 2007 17:31:48 -0500

I thought I should back up and explain a few things. Rocky-do is my mom's neighbor's dog. I'm not sure if he's 100% Siberian but he is all love. He has the most beautiful blue eyes and loves to give kisses but, as my mom knows first hand, he c...

I can't think of anything remotely interesting to talk about since Monkey Day. I have writers block. Or a brain hemorrhage. I'll let you know. In the interim, enjoy Rocky-do

Pound of Ham

I love my local grocery store and for the purpose of this story, let’s call it Sam’s. It’s a small chain in the Southeast Michigan area that has good quality, great variety and very nice people. They seem to carry higher-end stuff at prices that ...

Wondering Jorge

nobody@vox.com(Caboozy) — Thu, 09 Nov 2006 19:18:25 -0500

There is a new member to my little family: Wondering Jorge. Jorge came into my life on Lasik day. His uncanny resemblance to Curious George resulted in his name. My mother chose 'Jorge', Jim added 'Wondering'. Now when I'm at work Chandler has s...

Doctor my Eyes

nobody@vox.com(Caboozy) — Sat, 14 Oct 2006 13:24:53 -0400

Thank You for Smoking

nobody@vox.com(Caboozy) — Thu, 05 Oct 2006 19:30:56 -0400

You must see this movie. It's one of the best I've seen in a while. The main character, a lobbyist for the tobacco companies is both a man you can love and hate. I think it's both entertaining and educational. I love the idea of spin doctors. I lo...
