The coloring on the ship is finished. Phew! Now I have to go do physical labor tomorrow, not going to be fun. Plus, got an appointment later this month to finish it out with my compass rose on the inside of my arm. That one will hurt the worst by far, what with all that [...]
I Say Famous Stuff Too!
Every so often I feel like I come up with some profound statement which, given to the right people, would change their lives. The only problem is that I’m not famous. You’ve done it — looked on-line for some famous quote which is only famous because some famous person said it. Suddenly the words “I [...]
When You’re Not On A Bike, You Look Like An Idiot
If you’re not on a bike, going to a bike, or hobbling around on clip-in shoes, don’t get caught wearing that stupid hat. You seriously look like Huey, Dewy and/or Louie.
Heart Attack?
I hope grandchildren look on this photo in the future and think that this was an actual photo of my dad having a heart attack.
I Swear To God I’m Freaking Out
Every once in a while I can’t help but let my mind wander into areas that I know should be off limits. For instance, Asian drivers are just as good as anyone else, but when I get cut-off or something I can’t help but think it’s shitty driving due to heritage. Or maybe crap that [...]
The Next James Bond Plot
You know how in the really good James Bond movies you sort of feel for the bad guy? Or maybe not the bad guy in general, but sympathize with his idea? For instance, in Moonraker you had Hugo Drax who want to right all the environmental wrongs the human species has done to the world. [...]
I Hate San Francisco (not really)
There are so many things in the Bay Area that I feel drives divides into our happy little community. For instance, the subway system (BART) doesn’t run past midnight/midnight-thirty. This means if you live in Oakland or Berkeley, you either need to leave the bar around 11:30 or so, or scamper to find a bed to sleep in until service resumes at 5am (maybe that ugly lady at the end of the bar might not be too ugly when there’s nowhere to sleep).
Swing And A Miss
I’m taking this Intro to Business night class at a local community college here in Oakland and for three nights a week for 2.5 hours we talk business. Well, it would be cool if we did, but it’s more of like a rambling lecture. I’m being harsh. I hate to be the asshole, but college [...]
