“Are You Hitting That?” Wacky Short Film

www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxHWCyOSaQM In Hollywood, you can end up in a movie without even knowing it! See comedy cutie Allusia as a gal-on-the-go who expounds upon her relationship with a hunk played by Shahrokh Mosavinejad after being asked the titular question by yours truly. LOL!

TTFN: Fix for Kontakt 3 Blank White Screen Problem

Another of my Tech Tips for Nerds! My regular readers will not understand or care about this at all, but as Ultimate Cal-Pals know, I’m actually a super geek when not performing on stage or in A/V media. I often encounter techie problems that require lots of intensive Googling to find solutions, and I’ve decided [...]

Drawing of Calpernia by Robert Vargas

Last night I had the pleasure of performing “Stunning” at the glamorous and wild birthday celebration of Ernie Omega, with dancers provided by the House of Extravaganze and House of Face.

iPhoto Won’t Import iPhone 4 Media: a Fix

iPhone 4 Came a Day Early

As many (but not all) Cal-pals know, I am a tech geek of the 1980′s school. I started computer programming with a brand-new Commodore 64, and I’ve never looked back. I love gadgets. My new iPhone 4 came today and I LOVE it! Review to come!

“Robert Palmer Mix” and “Stay With Me” Cover from UNREAL

(UPDATED – I put a better mix of “Stay With Me” and made it downloadable) Hey kids, I’ve been making a lot of “quick” cover tracks for my live weekly show “Unreal“, and I thought I’d post some for your perusal. Some caveats: I already know I don’t have a technically amazing voice. I’m trying [...]

Just Look at This Pine Comb

Oh my goodness, a dear friend of mine has decided to start a blog cataloging her thrift shop finds and the delightful presents her terrifyingly intelligent little daughter Theresa makes for her. What do you think? www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBMyXCFo9kE
