A Trip to the 'Flower Shop'
Here is a fun conversation with the Mayor of Tweaker Alley. Earlier today the Mayor’s Office offered to go to the ‘flower shop’ for me.

Mayor of Tweaker Alley: What up, Joe? It’s the Mayor.
TJM: Oh, hey Mr. Mayor. How ya doin?
MTA: I’m headed to the ‘flower shop’ today and was wonderin’ if you...

Wilco
My obsession with Wilco is growing with their return to LA only 2 weeks away. I have tickets to the Jan. 21st show at the Paladium, WHICH, here it comes: also serves as the Palace Hotel Ballroom in the Blues Brothers movie. Don’t believe me? Google it.
“Orange Whip? Orange Whip? 3 Orange Whips.”
So last night I was watching the NPR series, Tiny Desk Concerts with Wilco. I...

Mustachio Day!
With my $25.00 donation to #Movember, I am proud to declare this day, November 5th 2011, Mustachio Day! This donation also kicks off my 2nd year of growing a stache’ for charity.
Last year, with the help of many generous donations from people like you, coupled with the steady follicle growth on my upper lip, I raised over $1000.00 for men’s health. The specific organizations that...

The Ol' $10.04er
I will cook mine on Friday night, with a review to follow on Saturday/Sunday. The juices of anticipation are building.

Our story begins last Saturday at the Coldwater Canyon Ralph’s. THE Joe Moran and I were wandering aimlessly through the deli section when an out of place item caught my eye near the Johnsonville Brats. It was wrapped in a burgundy ribbon. It was marbleized. It...

THE Proclamation
You can call it my return to cable. Early last week, my administration signed a proclamation ensuring cable television be installed at Chateau Moran shortly after September 10th, 2011.
Over a year ago I embarked on a journey that featured Netflix and Hulu – or any other website that streamed content into my home. I went Internet only, baby! Although I own a TV, I could only watch DVDs on it. It...

It's been a while, hasn't it?
Wow! So much has happened since we last talked. It was before Easter, and I was jibber-jabbering about 5 songs I heard on the radio that day. Well, I thought I’d check in with ya and give YOU an update on THE Joe Moran. Speaking of April 18th, did you know that is the date the Chicago White Sox opened the gates to their new home, which at the time was christened ‘Comiskey Park...

Review: Billy Vera with Lon Price at Vitello's
Earlier this week I did a little tongue-wagging about Billy Vera’s upcoming performance at Vitello’s Italian Restaurant in Studio City, featuring Lon Price on saxophone. That show was last night in the upstairs Jazz & Supper Club.
Billy took his seat at the piano at 8pm. Naturally, I arrived at 8:15. (I figured they’d wait for me, but forgot to tell them I would be in...

Today is My Birthday
I’m going to celebrate it by going to work. After which, I will proceed to one of two places. Narrowing the selection down was no easy task. However, in the end, it helped making the final decision much easier. So, the process worked. The choices are to either hitch my horse to a post and get to the bar for drinks with friends, lovers, and constituents, etc., or, go to 24 HR Fitness for a 20...

I must be living under a rock
I just found out Marvin Sease suddenly passed away. When I say suddenly, I mean like February 8th, 2011, suddenly. Today is March 18th. Marvin was 64. How he passed doesn’t matter. He’s gone and I’m late to the party. I am almost at a loss for words, people. I have enjoyed Marvin’s career, and what he stood for as a musician. If not for Marvin’s lyrically challenging...

It's Always Pilot Season
If you’re a guy like me pilot season never ends. It is year round. I’m always on the lookout for what could be the next greatest story of all time. My hope and goal is to cultivate and develop said story into its proper form of media, i.e. a feature film or TV show. If the project is done properly, huge success and happiness comes your way. You earn fame, awards, Box Office success, go...
