The Death Pool and Dom DeLuise
Why do sentences have no business being in movie titles, Josh? I think we need to get to the bottom of this.— May 6, 2009 4:55 p.m.

That's right, magics! We have a deal about something related to this topic, do we not?!— May 6, 2009 4:53 p.m.
Neighborhood Blog Contest
Well, I wish they'd spread the love to me! Seriously, I do wonder about the criteria--there doesn't seem to be anything in particular they are looking for, either strictly neighborhood-related, a journalistic approach (see the winner with all of a paragraph about insane ballpark prices), or a diaristic approach in general. All of these have won. I may try again, though; this time with another neighborhood :)— May 6, 2009 4:49 p.m.
Pursuit of Happy Hours
"I think these bivalves want to strut around with a little bichon frise puppy poking its head out from a Fendi handbag — or a light cloak of beurre blanc, or some sort of Mexican designer-cream sauce wrapped around their shoulders." Naomi, you've got a way!— May 6, 2009 1:05 p.m.

The Death Pool and Dom DeLuise
Josh wrote: "Gotta love the 60s. They had movie titles that were sentences. They Shoot Horses, Don't They? Yes, they do. And they also come up with normal movie titles that are only a few words long! I mean, how did they even put movie titles like that on those old marquees?" Many film titles are sentences. Many are adaptations of novels of the same name. And...what do you mean by "normal?" What's a "normal" movie title, and who prefers it to any other? Josh wrote: "I'm guessing that someone won a Death Pool recently, with the death of Bea Arthur and now Dom DeLuise." No one won anything, clearly. I always wondered how long someone like Dom Deluise could hold on, after all of the pasta carbonara and valpolicella. Like Pavarotti, each time you'd glimpse him on tv, a little gasp--is he bigger yet? Yes, he was by all accounts an enthusiastic and wonderful chef, a great lover of food and drink, friends and life. We should be so lucky! I haven't followed Bea Arthur's career, but my twenty-something cousin is seriously grieving her loss. I think it has to do with a certain sensibility portrayed by Arthur, a tough, no-nonsense, world-weary city girl?— May 6, 2009 10:50 a.m.
Searching for San Diego's Sea Turtles and a Job
Well, they say love cuts like a knife. I promise, it'll be a juicy one!— May 6, 2009 1:13 a.m.
The San Diego Pot and Coke Connection at work
Paul, thank you for taking the time to get serious about this, and provide clear, logical argumentation. Bravo.— May 6, 2009 1:05 a.m.
Searching for San Diego's Sea Turtles and a Job
It certainly sounds inky. I'm working on a story about clams, but I can't talk about it.— May 6, 2009 12:54 a.m.
Searching for San Diego's Sea Turtles and a Job
I guess I thought this story would serve as Cliff's Notes. Now I am FORCED to read Chapter 7.— May 6, 2009 12:16 a.m.
