Local Italian Food Now Available
A few weeks ago we had dinner at Lorenzini's, the newest Italian restaurant in Watsonville. We've been sorely in need of local Italian cuisine in this valley where there are about ten Mexican restaurants to one of any other kind. I hope this turns out to be good timing for Lorenzini's. I'd love to see them stay awhile and balance the cultural ambience and tastings. We had trouble deciding what to order last time, so we'll have to go back soon. I have to decide whether to try the Lasagna Vegetariana next, or opt first for the Rigatoni Al Pollo. All decisions in life should be this much fun.

Hand Over The Goose And Nobody Gets Hurt
I loved the story of the surprise a goose hunter in Minnesota got. This is exactly what's been missing in modern hunting. Human hunters pack a bologna sandwich, a thermos of coffee and a gun, and then head out into the woods in full camo gear. They call this sport. But where is the competition, where someone bigger, stronger or smarter shows up to compete with them for their prey? Now, that's sport. In this particular case, all it took was a poor creature who was truly hungry to bring the small time game hunter to his knees.
