Rocca Ristorante

We went to this newish Italian restaurant

last night, based on the recommendation

of a client. I had the Rib-eye and Eva had

the Rigatoni which we didn't finished.

They were very good but we didn't expect

the crab cakes to come with a decent

amount of Arugula. I also had the excellent

Minestrone and Eva had the delicious

Warm Spinach salad.

The prices are very reasonable. The chianti was impeccable.

We'll be back!

Being late. Safari. art

Regarding Debi's late attempt to adopt the

Lhasa that wandered into her backyard:

Reminds me of the reason why I'm not
a big Filipino Superstar. The two times
my cousins dragged me to audition for
the top amateur singing show in Manila,
when I was around ten years old, we were
late.

I really like the Safari Beta, seems faster
and more stable and smoother than
Chrome.

Sun is out, it'll be raining starting tomorrow
and all of next week.

Many of you may remember me talking about

my favorite singer/songwriterJane Siberry.

She changed her name to Issa when she turned
50. She posted a question in her email yesterday.
Is it all vanity, Art?
She's pondering if she should get a real job. I guess
being an 'art house' composer/singer doesn't pay all
the bills. Could be the economic mood just made her

even more introspective than she usually is.
I got her first original CD in ten years. I'm hesitant to let
others listen to it. I've had it since November and I'm just

beginning to like it.

Got to work out, still having to squeeze through my size 30
pants. Make use of this beautiful day.
