AND...

A coupla Sundays ago, as I bid a fond farewell to me & my buddy Eddy Bauer's "Brunch With Barry" Sunday party at Kitty's, I decided to pull out my recorder and favorite tracks and make the finale a humdinger. Making it even more special were the cool security & bar staff & patrons at Kitty's who are friendly & supportive & appreciate good vibes & tunes; and have been throughout the party's almost-year run. Then the frosting on the cake was lovely Alona coming with Scrabble board & vinyl FIRE to play with me! I popped my Scrabble cherry and KICKED ASS! Anyone want to play?! I'm not as dumb as I look!
