Sunday Recap

A little humor to start off the week. SNL spoofed the best studio show in television over the weekend. Here’s Tracy Morgan as Charles Barkley and some other dude as Ernie Johnson.





After the Lakers looked like they had things in hand at half-time, we ran out to the City Beat beer festival in North Park. The usual (but entirely welcome) suspects, including Stone, Green Flash, Ballast Point, etc. We couldn’t help but think, though, that there may have been something else added to the beer.





Go-go dancers and a four-piece punk quartet in wolf-man outfits. Can't recall if they were any good... visual distractions and all.

T.V....? Not here.

Because we’d be embarrassed to admit that our musical preferences were influenced by a commercial on TV we’ll just say …. that a friend was watching the NBA playoffs on TNT and really, really liked a song they heard for a Dockers ad and thought we might like it also.




Marlena Shaw…. “California Soul”

P.S. Would it be a stretch to say we hear some of the Mamas and Papas in this song?
