At most sales jobs, you learn to manage a clients expectations as to when they are making a purchase. This is a delicate balance of hyping up a product as a fantastic deal, without creating hopes that could never be fulfilled.
The Johnny’s Irish House, on O’farrel St. in SF, seems to embrace this concept in [...]
My friend (& Self Edge co-affiliate) Clay Gardner, took some awesome shots for my new yo-yo site. The photos turned out well, but needed some minor touch ups, so my friend Krisgoat punched them up with her amazing photoshopping skills. She sharpened the blurry yo-yo, cleaned up some dermatological issues, removed dandruff and various crap [...]
The recent storms in the Bay Area may not the storm of the century, but it certainly has caused plenty of damage to our neighborhood and many others. The news here isn’t really that we have some huge tropical storm, but that we even have any weather worth noting. Our mild weather usually consists of [...]
What a long week this has been. Having just arrived from an awesome trip to Portland, I immediately had to follow it up with a few 12 hour days at the Exotic Erotic Ball here in the Bay Area. Not that I was working full 12 hour shifts mind you, but as many of you [...]
I’m in Portland now and loving it. Since I can’t do anything these days without feeling the need to share it with anyone who can read, I’m microblogging the trip via Flickr. Check out my PDX 2007 photo set on Flickr as I continue to fill it up with mini entries.

I’m back in SF from the National Yo-Yo Contest in Chico CA. I didn’t compete this year, which could explain why it was one of my favorite NYYCs in years. The freehand routines were great, as were most of the other divisions, but I honestly didn’t spend too much time watching the freestyles.
Aside from trying [...]
This is me, age 18. With my first Fender Jaguar. I bought it in Memphis while my band was doing a small tour. The other guys in the band hated the guitar and blame it for our eventual break up. You can’t see it, but I was wearing a gold leotard. I wore them a [...]
