I stopped into my favorite camera store in Stamford today -Camera Wholesalers, on High Ridge Rd. and nonchalantly asked the price of what is arguably the best little multifunction camera on the market; the Casio Ex-Z33, with 10.1 megapixels, 3X zoom lens, face detection, and 10 minute video capability that instantly formats for YouTube and [...]

Tawa Turning Into THE Party Place; BOGO Drinks and Free Kabobs and Breads Wed. and Thurs. night

Dog Days are behind us and suddenly, it’s back to school, back to a five-day work week (as opposed to those “working on the links Fridays”) and back to real life.  Everyone, it seems,  kicks into gear.  This turn of phrase naturally makes me think of driving.  And driving makes me think of tires.  Have [...]

Gene Wilder Introduces 1952 Moulin Rouge at Avon Theater, tonight, Sept. 17th

I realize this is a last minute post, but it’s too good to ignore.  Quirky and wizened, Gene Wilder has been going about his gracious way in Stamford for decades.  Movies, especially the classics, are so important to Wilder that he now sits on the board of Stamford’s art theater, The Avon, which showcases independent films, [...]
