Dog Years

Dear ol’ Sampson, our resident doberman, spent his 12th birthday lapping at the last bit of peanut butter in a jar, gobbling down hot dogs, terrorizing a furry toy that squeaks, and taking a dip in the Platte River – all the while surrounded by his favorite Denver human friends. 12 dog years is equal […]

Kickstarter

I just backed a solo music project by Josh Wise of The French Kicks. Have I hit the jackpot and begun signing checks to every artist I fancy?! Nope, I just discovered this nifty fundraising website, www.kickstarter.com, that focuses the community on funding creative projects. An artist sets a monetary goal to help realize a […]
