The last few days have been tough for my family…the final link from the older generation passed away last week. My great-aunt always had a smile, a dark sense of humor, and was a confidante to many. The great thing about being part of a crazy family is that we manage to laugh at the darkest …
    With Netflix’s prices going up, it’s nice to have a respite from the company that started all the trouble originally and is now in a huge financial crisis…Blockbuster.  On Sundays in July, the videos that are usually $1.99 or less, are reduced to $0.49.  It’s a great deal that allows you to feel more inclined …
    What can I say?  We have lost yet another talented, brilliant artist.  She joins the ranks of the tortured, beautiful souls that make our days a little more tolerable:  Billie Holiday, Janis Joplin, Edith Piaf, and now, Amy Winehouse…Rest in peace you beautiful women and thank you for sharing your souls with us. 
    The wound was reopened, and made to bleed once again.  No more new adventures at Hogwarts.  The boy who lived found his way into our hearts through the pages of seven fantasy novels that erupted onto the big screen, all of it ending tonight with the release of the second part of Deathly Hallows.      It was …
    Why ruby slippers & karaoke?  Is it related to Dorothy singing to theTin Man or maybe a duet with the Wicked Witch?  Sounds like a musical.  Actually, it refers to Thursday nights at Waxy O’Connor’s off Brickell, and a drink called Ruby Slipper, made by a very cool bartender there.     So here’s a perfect girl’s night out: happy hour at Jaguar’s in the …
      Within a 3 year period, I have moved myself, friends or family a minimum of 15 times.  Therefore, I consider myself somewhat of an expert in the matters of moving, particularly in Miami.  I also have spent the last three years doing repairs in my home and other people’s homes.  I’m slowly, but surely becoming Bob …
    Are you sad?  Not feeling quite yourself?  Feel stressed?  Maybe you have a leak in your house.  Maybe your boyfriend broke-up with you once again for the third time, within the same week.  Or maybe your latest hairstyle looks like Annie met that mean gremlin, Spike?      Whatever it is that’s getting you down…here’s my suggestion:  put down …
     Can’t wait to see this week’s episode.  What a great show.  Can’t believe you haven’t seen it.  You’d love it.  Blah blah blah.  This is all I kept hearing from people about some new show…Game of something.  Sounded familiar.  I’d heard of it…oh, that’s right, I did see the previews on HBO.  I guess …
    There are two public figures whose presence brings me to tears: the Dalai Lama and Bono.       You may chuckle or giggle a little at my previous statement, but if you’ve sat through a U2 concert or rather, danced like a school girl through a U2 concert, you could understand how it is a religious experience.  This group’s compassion and humanitarianism is …
    Actually, the title is not a reference to U2 even though I am going to see them later today.  The title is a reference to my themed Sunday gatherings that began June 26th, which are comprised of New Orleans-style bloody mary with pickled green beens and okra, and True Blood.  Now you understand…    June 26th began like a …
