1. DMV actually stands for....'Oh, Did you have to pee? Sorry...Many, many more people are in line ahead of you to enter the building, once inside you'll have to wait in a few more lines, and by the time you get your new plates, tags, certificates, license and the rest...it's now Valentines Day and you've peed your pants...'

2. People who abuse Facebook and why they make me feel so darn smart...my list of standout posts, status updates, likes, and pages, including 'Milk and Cookies are Good but God is Better'...

Highly Recommended for Your Listening Pleasure

Kings of Convenience ...recommended to us from our car neighbor at a stop light. We turned down our lovely music to hear their lovely music...and chatted for a bit about California, the secret of life and Kings of Convenience...pleasant car neighbors, they were...

Happy Halloween!

Hey Stranger...

We miss our dear Baltimore friends and find ourselves trying to replace them with random California people on the street. We call to these west coast doppelgangers...like this:

'Hey girl with strawberry blond hair who is about 5'7"...Do you like Janis Joplin and the Dixie Chicks? Would you like to sing a song with me in my car?'

'Hey Indian guy with a goatee...do you sing really well? Can you play the guitar? Are you really, really good at Trivial Pursuit? If so, I challenge you to a game.'

'Hey guy with a beard that looks like Noah but is a little shorter and very pretty girl with him who has brown hair and a homemade hula hoop....Have one or both of you ever been referred to as Top or Bottom Bunk? If so...wanna drink some Boh's?'

'Hey guy with the yellow dog. Is your dog called D? Do you want to get some Wild Turkey and a 2 liter diet coke and do something like cruise the river in a canoe?'

'Hey girl that looks like the girl from the show Bones but prettier...do you want to have a dance party at 3am, or make me laugh with some very good and dry jokes or meet at exit 156 off Route 70 at Starbucks and take some pictures and dehydrate my cat?'

'Hey guy with your special speedy bike for bike racing and wide assortment of Volkswagen's parked in your driveway (brown, green and purple). Do you want to skateboard with me until we're silly drunk, fall 'trying to nail a sick trick' and eventually break one of my fingers?'

'Hey tall Aussie, are you a shark wrangler?'

'Hey girl with my dream job. Would you like to go on a late night Royal Farms run with me for some gummies and other supplies or watch my cat attack your purse?'

'Hey pretty lady with long dark hair, sorry to interrupt this event you are so awesomely in charge of...but wondering if you would like to play some Scrabble since you kinda rock at the game?'

'Hey toothless man grinning as best you can at me...Do you work for the bread company? Can I have some free bagels?'

'Hey guy with some really, really good falafel at the farmers market. Wait, my mistake, this is not the best falafel but you're close enough. Wanna hook me up with some falafel and a huge jar of local honey that I will have for many, many months?'

'Hey girl that looks like me...do you like Micheal Franti and Leonard Cohen? Shall we dance or just talk for many, many hours at a tiny dive bar?'

'Hey, you, very curly hair guy that perhaps used to be dreaded...I need a hug. If you are good at hugs perhaps you will share one?'

'Hey guy with no shoes on, with a passion for travel and Hawaiian surf...want to loose $1,000 in the console of your car and ride back from a Phish show, 6 people deep in the cab of a pickup truck, tripping and then find the money months later...No?! Why the hell not?'

If you're not included in our stories...just simply means we haven't run into your west coast stunt double yet...and we cannot wait to see the real you and/or force/ scare a stranger to be your double and our friend.

Love to all.
