Ama sua, Bay Area. There is no difference between a man who steals from the Louis Vuittons at Union Square and a man who complains something, a courtesy around a service, is taking too long (Bah humbug much?). Both are wrong and so last century, thieves of things, of time and good will, of energy. […]

The Thing About ‘I Drink Wine’
The thing about Adele’s “I Drink Wine,” a new song in her latest record, 30, is it is the Brunch Song of the 2021-2022s. And I love it. I drink it up Champagne rosé.
Here They Come: America’s First Family
Ready or not, here they come: the Ricardos. Written and directed by Academy Award winner Aaron Sorkin. Starring fellow Oscar winners Javier Bardem and Nicole Kidman, Sorkin’s Being the Ricardos is an upcoming Amazon Studios biopic about the real-life man and woman behind the glittering Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball, a.k.a. TV’s Lucy and Ricky […]
The Thing About ‘The Morning Show’
The thing about Apple TV+’s The Morning Show, starring Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Steve Carell (with Julianna Margulies as a recurring guest star in Season 2), is it’s a show about control. And because it’s a show about a TV morning show set against first, the #MeToo movement, and then, against the aftermath of […]
This Is Our Kingdom
I tried something new tonight: I went to church. Now, I’m not religious, but I am curious and into finally forming an opinion all my own regarding worship. At a church. And Grace Cathedral down the street is Episcopal, and from what I learned watching the Sex and the City on the HBO, that means […]
San Francisco, 10.2.21
Madame X vibes last night at @clubfugazisf for preview show 11 of “#DearSanFrancisco,” a high-flying love letter to the #CitybytheBay by @the7fingers, an awesome international troupe full of stars. @madonna’s “#MadameXTour” was the last show we enjoyed pre-COVID. How appropriate to get back to it with this performance, a celebration of dance, gymnastics, and human […]
Miami Art Week 2021 Is Nigh
Red Dot marks the Spectrum of art fairs in Miami coming up this 2021 season. I…am not entirely sure about my wordplay up above, but back down here, closer to the truth, yeah, it looks and sounds like the party is back on – not that it ever wasn’t – come Baseltimes next month, Miamis. […]
Steamy, Steamy
Boy, does it get kinda hot – downright balmy…and humid… – after a bomb cyclone. That was a first, mind you. One of the topics of conversation whenever on the phone with someone back home has always been the weather. Smooth and easy, that topic. Like buttah. And I feel like, maybe, that’s a fairly […]
It Is Indecent
Forever and a half, and then some, we have read about, heard, witnessed the plight of the American worker (of farmers and nurses and teachers, here, there, everywhere). We have, and we also have learned the names of the companies that have yet to step up, of the politicians that filled their mouths with promises […]
Let’s Have a Clean Fall
Shall we? Yeah. Let’s have a clean fall. It’s doable. After all, plastic wastes (or glass/aluminum trash), drink cups, and those nasty cigarette butts don’t simply happen in nature. We make ‘em happen. And that is sooo last century. I mean, PPE as litter on the streets, in 2021. Really? Let’s do our part better. […]
