R.I.P MCA
“Lookin’ for a girl, I ran into a guy. His name is MCA, I said, ‘Howdy’ he said, ‘Hi’.” I was devastated to hear this morning that Adam Yauch aka “MCA” of the Beastie Boys has died of cancer. I heard the news on KROQ while driving down the 101 to Orange County for a weekend of music that includes the 20th Annual KROQ... Read More

It looks great,... Read More
Japan Memories
I can’t believe I was in Japan only 5 months ago. The last few days have been a jumble of memories and concerns, made even more surreal because on the night the earthquake happened, I was having dinner with Melisser of The Urban Housewife and we reminisced about our trips to Tokyo and Kyoto. It was very strange to return home, turn on the TV, and see images of the distruction... Read More
