Remember when we were in Africa?

I caught a screening of the 2010 documentary "When You're Strange: A Film about the Doors." Narrated by Johnny Depp, it has loads of live footage: on-stage, back-stage, in the studio, interviews and day-in-the-life - very little of which I'd seen before. This is a kinder, gentler documentary - not overtly critical - definitely a fan movie though the narrative delves quite frankly into Jim's drug demons. It covers all the infamous controversial events in the bands' history. I highly recommend the movie for Doors' fans and aspiring rockers, as it chronicles the rise and fall - and the causes of the rise and fall - of the band. RIP Jim Morrison!

First date resumes



Match.com is morphing into monster.com.

With the current unemployment rates, enterprising job-seekers are now using dating sites to mine for jobs - showing up to a first date with their resume in hand.

I was chatting with a friend recently about their online-dating experiences. Their profile described an affluent, well-educated executive in a technical industry and that was enough to catch the eye of a few job-seekers.

At the first (and only) meeting, their date demurely produced their resume and asked if there were any job openings at my friend's company. The scenario repeated itself two more times with other people.

So if you dip your toe in the realm of online-dating, be aware that this could happen.

Happy Thanks!

Thank you for your continued tenderness, affection, insight, generosity, trust and discretion. I've recently started referring to the experience as "Educating Paloma." lol You've taught me so much and I'm a better person because of it. Cheers!

RIP Hippie

Matthew Shuter of Somerset, England has found an untapped niche. He bought a 1989 Daimler hearse and vinyl-wrapped it "to look something like the scenery from the Beatles' film Yellow Submarine." He figured, right about now, hippies would begin needing 'one final ride' and why not have them go out in a style to which they've become accustomed? You can read more here and visit his website here.
