Another earthquake

We had a 3.1 earthquake today but I didn’t know about it until I watched the news tonight.  I was in my car around mid afternoon so I never felt it. I can’t count the number of earthquakes I’ve experienced – quite a few in the middle of the night, some at my desk, one when I was going to the bathroom – that was around a magnitude five. I jumped up to get under a doorway but I wasn’t done making the wee wee’s.  (I know, TMI.)  I often wonder what I’ll be doing when the big one hits. Not cutting my own bangs, I hope.

Welcome to my Blog Buddies

I just wanted to say “welcome” to my blog buddies who have sent in their photos (and even those who haven’t). It was Rhonda’s idea to put a page together so we could put a face with certain names that keep popping up and I love the idea. Just so you know, BBs, this blog gets hundreds of visitors but they don’t always leave a comment. I receive emails through the site every week from fans saying how much they enjoy reading this blog. So thanks for participating!

Scene of a crime

Remember when Robert Blake’s wife met her untimely demise behind Vitello’s Restaurant in Studio City and nobody knew whodunnit? Well, the restaurant is still going strong and has a lounge with live music. I had never been inside before but Denis found out that a group we had seen on PBS was performing last night and we went. They are an “a capella” group called M-Pact and they were amazing! It’s six guys with no instruments at all, just their voices, and you’d swear there was a live drummer and bass and a whole band playing with them. I’ve never seen anything like it in person. As a musician myself, I was mesmerized while they sang, wondering how they did it. The guy who did the drums with his voice even did a drum solo that seemed humanly impossible. Anyway, it was a great night and we parked right where the crime happened, on a side street around the corner. I wonder if they’ll ever find the shooter…
