About Me |
|
I'm a former rock and movie critic for the San Jose Metro now living in sunny Apopka Florida with my wife Doreen, my son Jacob, three dogs and assorted other critters that get into the house when we're not careful. I attended Chaminade Prep HS in what is now West Hills, CA and Loyola Marymount University in what has always been Westchester, CA (OK, Los Angeles -- right by the durn airport) and I still watch a lot of movies and listen to a lot of music. From time to time I write reviews, when the mood strikes me. Aak me nicely and I might send you some.

Post-Beach Blues |

| There is something about Florida beach communities that are somewhat generic, despite every attempt to make them otherwise. Doreen and I had booked a couple of nights at the Sirata Beach resort in St.... Posted by Carlosdev on Thu, 29 May 2008 01:12:00 PST |

Relationship Maintenance |

| I keep meaning to post new blogs more often, but I find that I get involved in so many other things that I sometimes just don't have the time. A weird thing to say for somebody who is not working righ... Posted by Carlosdev on Wed, 21 May 2008 06:18:00 PST |

What is this mess? |
|
| What is it with us? Do we have a "Kick Me" sign embossed on our foreheads?
Case in point. Our Air Conditioning system went down. We'd had it replaced five years ago not long after we moved into our h... Posted by Carlosdev on Wed, 14 May 2008 01:37:00 PST |

| There are some certainties in life, but very few. Even the land changes its appearance over time - wind and rain and earthquakes and sinkholes. One of the few certainties is that every day, once finis... Posted by Carlosdev on Fri, 09 May 2008 05:55:00 PST |

| Well, the hockey season is officially over for the Sharks. Once again, they've been eliminated in the second round after six games. I'm no expert, but I'd be surprised if there weren't some fairly dra... Posted by Carlosdev on Mon, 05 May 2008 11:43:00 PST |

Got a Bad Case of the Fridays |

| It always seems to happen once every week on the same day. You get a case of the Fridays. You know what I mean; an increased checking of the clock while at work or school; a feeling of anxiousness as ... Posted by Carlosdev on Sat, 03 May 2008 10:19:00 PST |

Weekend is here - thank GAWD! |

| G'day, and to all my Australian friends, G'day. Other than the Sharks win in the first round of the playoffs, pretty uneventful week. My beloved Team Teal begins the second round tonight at home again... Posted by Carlosdev on Fri, 25 Apr 2008 11:25:00 PST |
