- See You Next Year, Santa!
Another Christmas has come and gone, and I'm still reeling! Our family had a wonderful gathering, with lots of love and laughs. I am drinking a super tasty cup of coffee this morning, made possible by my new Mr. Coffee. One of my...
- Sitemeter Woes
Is anyone else having problems with sitemeter? Mine was working just fine one day and then turned into a "black box" the next. I can click on the box and see the statistics page, but now it just gives totals and doesn't break down...
- Calendar Error
My calendar shows that it's the 2nd Friday in February, but I'm sure there have been more than that. I seems to me that Friday comes along about every 3 or 4 days! And to add to the confusion, our temperatures will be in the...

- An Evening At Moulin Rouge
We are both romantics at heart and we immensely regretted not making it to Moulin Rouge the first two times we visited Paris. But you know what they say, third time is a charm, and there we were, in front of the red windmill, thickening the tourist lines....

VIDEO: The Cat Man. A Street Performer's Story
There are streets in this world that wouldn't be the same without the street performers who make a living on them. I like street performers, ok, maybe not all of them, but the motionless ones in fancy clothing and the really talented artists giving demonstrations can be for me the salt and pepper of a place.
Bela Erdei or 'The Cat Man' might be a familiar face to some of you who have walked the streets of the French Riviera in the past ten years. Dressed up in époque clothing, he and his gorgeous well cared for house cats put on a show meant to bring smiles and joy. The team works in harsh weather conditions and in front of a very judgmental public, for which the below video speaks volumes, but despite this they seem to love each other lots, just like a big happy family.
