Halloween

Last year on Halloween I asked my friend, Raghu from India, what he was going to be for Halloween. He said that he wanted to be a cowboy but that he didn't have enough time to get the costume together. I was dying of laughter inside when he told me this. Raghu is pronounced just like the spaghetti sauce. So, put that together with a cowboy who is of the west and you get a Spaghetti Western.

OR

He would have been a cowboy and an indian at the same time.

Don't Do This

Don't ride your bike to the soccer field and lean the bike up against the fence without locking it then go play your soccer game and, when you are done, go get in Tony's car and drive away.

Chances

There are roughly 815,358 residents in the City of San Francisco and I can't find one man to go on a date with. OK. 49.2% of those are women so that leaves 414,202 men. 15.4% of all residence are homosexual so that means 7.7% or so of men are gay. That leaves 382,308 straight men. 45.1% are white so we will have to excuse them. That leaves 209,887. 13.87% of those men are between the ages of 45 and 54. So, now I'm left with 29,102 of which 44.04% are married. Subtract them and I'm left with 16,285 eligible bachelors. But, really, how many of those would I really be interested in? 1. Where is he? Maybe he's on the Peninsula.

Assumptions

If I made a portrait from the assumptions people have made of me over the past month or so I would be a 55 yr. old divorced vegetarian lesbian who only drinks non-fat milk and who teaches grammar school. Hmm. Interesting.

Looking Good For My First Week of Class

On Sunday Aug. 8th my soccer season started back up with my beloved Brazilian team. It was a good game but I got hit in the face with the ball. The next weekend I got hit in the face with the ball. Today I got hit in the face with the ball. I should play the lottery.

Year Without A Summer

The Eskimos have a legend about a year without a summer some time ago. The birds did not migrate north. The fish did not come home to spawn. The spring grasses did not sprout because the sun never shown through the clouds. Many people and animals died.

Escape to LA

I went to LA to get out of the cold foggy summer weather that has been plaguing us for months now but it was cold and foggy in LA too. So much for my summer vacation. So much for summer. School starts again on Tuesday. At least they have Balboa Bars down in So. Cal. A Balboa Bar is a block of vanilla ice cream with a stick in it. They dip it in chocolate then roll it in any topping you want. Crushed Oreo cookies, gummy worms, sprinkles, etc. I like the chopped peanuts. It was worth the trip.
