See Inside
Wet Hen Cafe & Catering is a quaint cafe on a prime corner in SE Reno with an amazing view on the patio. The menu features Quiche, home made soups, fresh garden to table ingredients, a dash of pastry and muffins, fresh breads and whole roasted meats. It’s an old world cafe made local. This small menu overflows with quality ingredients in their famous quiches, all their sandwiches, soups, salads, breakfast offerings [served all day] and the combos come with a cookie. The Picasso on wheat is a favorite with smokey bacon tomato, lettuce [light on the mayo please] and as the pie’ce de re’sistance is the lovely brie they lay lightly in the middle.
The Gobbler is the signature sandwich with fresh oven roasted turkey [hand pulled], cranberry sauce, lettuce and mayo.
Local honey sits on the shelf along side local artists’ work on the wall that rotates on a monthly basis as a quiet corner awaits the next guest. Wet Hen offers local drips from Blind Dog Coffee Roasters and overstuffed chairs to mull over the paper with your java. For me it’s like going to moms for breakfast as it is as comfortable and at ease. The staff is friendly and always smiling however, don’t be surprised that the dishwasher/owner is the one smiling at you from behind the counter, or the bossy owner or offspring. And how could a home town place like this not have pie! Apple pie, that’s it, just apple pie. Simple and sweet.Wet Hen is a gem hidden in east Reno with something for everyone and worth finding!

A LOGICAL SOLUTION.
Now here is a problem that finally has a formula for getting to the bottom of an age old problem.
From a strictly mathematical viewpoint it goes like this:What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?
Here’s a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:
If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.Then:
H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%
and
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%But,
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%And,
B-U-L-L-S-*-*-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%AND, look how far a** kissing will take you.
A-*-*-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that While Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it’s the Bulls**t and A** Kissing that will put you over the top.
Everyone can think of one person here…
The European Union commissioners have announced that agreement has been reached to adopt English as the preferred language for European communications, rather than German, which was the other possibility.
As part of the negotiations, the British government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a five-year phased plan for what will be known as EuroEnglish (Euro for short).
In the first year, “s” will be used instead of the soft “c”. Sertainly, sivil servants will resieve this news with joy.
Also, the hard “c” will be replaced with “k”. Not only will this klear up konfusion, but typewriters kan have one less letter.
There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year, when the troublesome “ph” will be replaced by “f”. This will make words like “fotograf” 20 per sent shorter.
In the third year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.
Governments will enkorage the removal of double letters, which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes of silent “e”s in the languag is disgrasful, and they would go.
By the fourth year, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing “th” by “z” and “w” by ” v”.
During ze fifz year, ze unesesary “o” kan be dropd from vords kontaining “ou”, and similar changes vud of kors be aplid to ozer kombinations of leters.
Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst place….
hummmmm…..
There is no egg in eggplant, nor ham in hamburger; neither
apple or pine in pineapple. And while no one knows what is
in a hotdog, you can be pretty sure it isn’t canine.English muffins were not invented in England nor French
fries in France.Sweetmeats are candies, while sweetbreads, which aren’t
sweet, are meat.We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes,
we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are
square, and guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.And why is it that writers write, but fingers don’t fing,
grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham?If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn’t the plural of
booth, beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, two meese?
Is cheese the plural of choose? One mouse, 2 mice. One louse,
2 lice. One house, 2 hice?If teachers taught, why didn’t preachers praught?
If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian
eat?Why do people recite at a play, and play at a recital?
Ship by truck or car and send cargo by ship? Have noses
that run and feet that smell? Park on driveways and drive
on parkways?And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it, but when I
wind up this essay, I end it?Knowledge balance sheet – accounting knowledge (Photo credit: Wissensbilanz)

Today I stopped and smelled the roses per say. For a second. It’s the longest day of the year and my favorite day outside of Fall and Spring here in the high desert. The garden is growing[first] and my aries persona is beaming, [Thanks to many friends and family that are rooting]. The day is as long as the birds are singing , networks are expanding and a resolve is in sight….s t o p. Someone asked me the other day how it was possible to process all those tweets everyday….I couldn;’t answer yet I do do do, however in hindsight…the answer is that the brain is big and mostly unused…. Too much food for thought though sometimes. yes. Knowledge is pain. Seek Bliss.
As I sit in my favorite garden chair and write at about 8:45 pm and the sun is still up and feeling that twilight coming on i remember to take the time to reflect. And slowly write. as it taken me 24 hours to finish…
I have gathered a few photos of the moment……. loves, wants, haves, and DIY’s for you to see. [and probably again on Pinterest soon…..or twitter or my gallery site … maybe FB.] Keep moving but remember to always S T O P. and enjoy.
OOOh…just felt a minute earthquake…..yikes none felt since 2007…..wild! [note to self…must attach earthquake strap to mid century hutch my Dad built.]

This is 365: I spent the last year photographing only with my smart phone. I didn’t set any rules just simply titled the project and let it evolve from there. Some months I produced no images, other months I produced hundreds. As the project evolved and ideas were developed many changes were made to what originally was going to be 365 images. It rolls and changes, I change my mind, and change again. Imagine a floating ribbon 1 mile long floating in the wind from a 100 foot tree in the desert. This is how I imagine the evolution of my project as it exists. Organized chaos. The editing process has allowed the project to evolve completely into what it is by letting the images speak for themselves.
The image quality of a smart phone is shit yet somehow I produced some arty images I wouldn’t have gotten with my Nikon. 1thousand 4hundred and 18 images, 12 months of shooting and 3 months of editing down to 99 final images. Ninety nine images is a lot to visually process so I’m only showing 12 here because I want the audience to make the choice whether or not to view the complete project.
Enjoy the sampling. Click Here to see complete project. Or Here on Flicker

Reno Motel Life is a photo journey down 4th Street. The historic U.S. Route 40, and before that the more historic Lincoln Highway which ran through the heart of Reno along 4th Street. Many businesses arose over the years along the route to take advantage of the highway traffic. Then in the 1970’s Interstate 80 was built and many of these businesses were bypassed. Many have disappeared all together, the remnants of some remain, others struggle to stay in business, and a few flourish. Today East 4th Street is getting a bit of a revitalization and new businesses are breathing new life into the once dying area.
