*Today’s Hormonescope for Aquarius: I hate to be the one to tell you this but there are more Aquarians in mental institutions than any other sign. Take this as a warning to try and maintain. I know that your mind is going a zillion miles an hour, you just need to sit down and take some [...]
+ Ellyn’s Band!
PondWater Society event July 10, 2010
Ellyn Maybe & Tommy Jordan
I’ve seen Ellyn Maybe & her band at a number of events and also when they had their residency at 212 in Santa Monica. Every single time, I find myself grinning like a maniac, I just get so excited by the music and [...]

Kate Durbin with an introduction and poems by Peggy Dobreer
Kate Durbin signing my copy of "The Ravenous Audience"
Kate Durbin is a performance poet so elegant and refined that she seems other-worldly. For every performance, she invents a costume and makeup to entrance the audience and enhance the poems. Each one [...]
My Dearest,
Although geography keeps us apart, my love, there are so many wonders observed in harmony. I lay on my back in the dew-soaked grass and gaze at the moon. I can feel that you are seeing the same beauty and are overcome by the same calm. We are connected by the moon and her stars. [...]

Rick Lupert reading at Mindy Nettifee's "The Ladies Have the Floor" event
Rick Lupert came here one time. You might not believe this, but he really did. He came in through the back door and scared the crap out of me. I mean, you know, you’re sitting [...]
+ Jamey Hecht as an added bonus!
These poets, who I have admittedly invited in, are smashing me. I cannot tell you how much joy that brings to me. They come in all nice and polite. They mingle and converse and banter and fraternize. And then the next thing you know, they have taken over the room! [...]

The Guinea Hen – go ahead and click, she'll get bigger and look down on you.
Well, I wondered how long it would take for the guinea hen to reach a comfort level with poetry readings and feel it was safe to attend one. I got my answer, during the 5th [...]
For some reason this box makes 6 batches, the Costco version makes 5
1. Go to Costco and buy that giant box that says “Ghirardelli Triple Chocolate Brownie Mix”
2. Follow the directions for “24 Extra Thick Brownies” except add a 3rd egg. It gives them a little more lift. Sometimes I add walnuts or pecans.
You’ll be [...]
First of all, there are so many connotations, misrepresentations and misunderstandings (Nobody understands me!). It seems to me that a lot of people hear the word “Hedonist” and think of things like devil worship or Satan. Which, truth be told, is not all that far off if you consider Satan as Anti-Christ. What did Christ do? [...]
