This Saturday and Sunday brings the Bodega Seafood, Wine, Art and Music fest, all antics that are my middle name. I've never been personally but the street cred on this ditty is strong. One thing I do know about is a kicking hep cat band Steve Lucky & the Rumba Bums that will be playing at the fest on Sunday 12:45-2pm. This is worth the drive in and of itself. The lead vocalist and guitar beast is a woman no less (Carmen Getit - even her name is hep to the jive) who can whip any fool out on the dance floor. So hit the the not so long trail out to Bodega (summer is drawing to a close so catch the waves while you can!), slurp some wine and food, get artsy for the day, and slide onto the outdoor boogie flooor and remind yourself that life out in these parts gives you something to dance and sing about just about everyday of the year.
LA artist Jason Lockyer is at it again. This time his work hits the road, so you don't have to. No longer are you relegated into a gallery to see his work you can view it from the comfort of your own car or sidewalk as he whizzes right on by. You too can wallpaper your car with some of his arty delights. That is if any of them are left after his latest exhibit, spawned from it's Germany-based rendition. Read more about it here.

Not that anybody seems to notice but I’m back to my slim, post-bud break fighting weight of a svelte 20.5 pounds. I’m tempted to drop down to 20 but that would require a major overhaul to my wine-swilling repertoire and I’m not ready to commit to such a change.
Columnist, novelist, food, wine, event critic, marketing and promotions. When someone recently told me to "get a life" I decided to get a "wineward" life instead. When I slurp wine, I feel fine, enough said. I intend to slurp and scribe as much as humanly possible. My background came of age slinging ads (interactive and traditional ad agencies) from the glamorous (Sony, ABC/Disney, WB), the cuddly (Purina), foodie (Kraft), techie (HP, Intel, AT&T, Apple), & publishing (Conde Nast, Time Inc., Hearst), film festival production, and the list goes on and on.
