Talk about bad trips…

The inventor/discoverer/father (take your pick) of LSD died.  He was 102!!! Guess LSD isn’t that bad for you, after all.  Take that, DEA!

Foxy…Jimi?

First Pamela, then Paris, then a whole host of skanks, now Jimi effing Hendrix. An (alleged) Jimi Hendrix sex tape is being released by Vivid. Or at least someone who looks like him.  I don’t doubt Mr. Hendrix certainly got it on back in the day.  It was the sixties, after all, everyone was doing [...]

Because, really, who doesn’t want to be entertained while in the bathroom?

For those of you who think using the restroom is just too boring, have I got the thing for you!  It’s a toilet!  It’s a fishtank!  It’s a toilet fishtank!  Seriously, it’s a fish tank inside the tank of a toilet. This totally gives new meaning to the ritual of flushing dead goldfish down the [...]

If you must…

I’ve already given you the secret to the Margarita perfecta.  If you’re not an insufferable purist, you may be interested in this handy list of oh let’s say more exotic margarita recipes from Fine Living.  Less than one week to Cinco de Mayo – make sure to stock up on handles of Tequila and Dos [...]

Inmate being “starved”…to life, in my opinion

Apparently, an Arkansas inmate awaiting trial on murder charges is complaining that jail food has caused him to lose weight – over 100 pounds, in fact.  He is now down to a svelte 308 pounds.  He is, logically, suing the county jail in a federal law suit, complaining that the jail is starving him by [...]

It’s Friday, you ain’t got no job…

and you ain’t got shit to do! Or do you…? (insert suspicious glance here). Well, I feel like a freaking festival queen, but I guess springtime in hotATL just means it’s time to pop up the tents, get some arts, crafts and beer together and fiesta. (that’s the verb, not the [...]

Happy Friday, go buy stuff

Like half-off consignment designer stuff. The Junior League of Atlanta is having an “upscale” consignment sale. Saturday is half-off day. I’ve never been to one of these and I’m not affiliated with the Junior League – not that I have anything against the Junior League, I’m just wanted to make sure the [...]

Happy Friday, y’all! Feeling like being a shut-in? Watch Juno!

I watched Juno last night, again. I saw it when it came out in the theater and it truly is a precious movie. It makes me hate Jason Bateman just a little bit, although in general I love him. (How perfect is he in Dodgeball?) Anyway, J is out of town for [...]

Doh! How did I miss this one?!!!

My bad guys.  Richard Blais, most recently of Top Chef fame, (and formerly of Blais notority for the foie gras milkshake and Element, which closed abruptly) has teamed up with Tom Cattherall at Home (link is to Here to Serve main site; skip intro to go to Home Restaurant & Bar’s page, which includes menu [...]

Continuing with the dining theme…

I have heard much lately of this new place in Decatur, Cakes & Ale.  It’s sometimes hard for me to get out to Decatur, not because I don’t love it, I truly do, but mostly because there are just so many awesome places near me in Midtown and Poncey-Highlands, L5P, etc. that it’s hard to [...]
