Randomocity

Just some thoughts that have been running through my head lately...

You know the SUV commercial where the guy goes out the front door and parasails off a cliff to get to his vehicle to go to work? How in the heck does he get back to the house at night? Does his wife get tired of packing his chute every night? I would...

Why is it that in big cities like Chicago they have Starbucks right across the street from each other?

Why is it that so many people will find a pen in their house that doesn't write, then throw it back in the drawer where the found it? Throw the damn thing away!

Truth be told, not EVERYBODY loves Raymond...

There are certain albums (yes, I'm over 40, so I'm allowed to call them albums) that are perfect for rainy days...example: Carole King's "Tapestry," Joni Mitchell's "Court and Spark," anything by Michael Hedges.

I have a guilty addiction to the Will Smith movie "I, Robot." I don't know why I love it, but I do...I will watch it over and over and never get tired of it.

Starbucks Verona coffee is the shizznit...liquid orgasm.

Love is wasted on teenagers. I sincerely believe you don't truly appreciate love until you hit your 30s at least. Before that, it's just hormones. After that, it's hormones, friendship, and life experience...a great combination.

If I were to find out I was dying tomorrow and had a chance at one last meal, it would be a wheel of good ripe brie, a loaf of warm french bread, fresh creamery butter, some fresh sweet sun-ripened pears, and a lovely bottle of wine.

If I could have dinner with 4 people living or dead they would be Pablo Neruda, Dorothy Parker, Nelson Mandela, and John Lennon. Can you imagine the conversation?

The sexiest parts of a man are his eyes, his upper arms, his hands, and that lovely slope between his shoulders and his neck...

The most intoxicating smell I've ever encountered has to be the scent of jasmine growing along the walls of our hotel in Rome last spring...

I hate girly drinks with fruit, umbrellas, etc. If I am going to drink I want either a good dark imported beer, a vodka tonic, or a gin and tonic.

I suppose that's enough randomocity for now...maybe more later. Ciao.
