Casa Bonita

So amped to see this article about vintage Denver in Boing Boing. The excitement caused by Casa Bonita can only make sense to Laramie / Denver locals.

Long live the sopaipillas and tableside sopaipilla flags!

Noteworthy from Wyoming

Anyone remember this?

More 80's TV shows lusciousness

Esteban and the Mysterious Cities of the Gold...

This show stood out so clearly in my head - I remember being asked to be called "Esteban" in Spanish class rather than Ben-he-man.

Thanks be to Allah

For giving me Youtube, so that I might at last find out the name of that stupid 80s miniseries that only lasted 7 shows that I have thought about endlessly since I was 6 years old...

Behold... The Phoenix. Remember this one?

At last...

No more swinging around those cheap plastic lightsabers and making that "zwooom, zwoooom" sound like the lightsaber kid. LucasArts unveiled Star Wars: The Force Unleashed for the Wii that will let players kick some ass by swingin' around the controllers. What would be a badass enhancement? If the game let you control the "force" without pressing any buttons, but rather Wiimote gestures alone...

Victoria Vox

We had the chance to meet a great musician through a friend over the past week - her name is Victoria Vox and just the fact that she plays the ukulele is awesome enough for me. Her sound is a cross between a female Jack Johnson with the voice of Emily Saliers from Indigo Girls. Have a listen and go see a show!
