I’m off to see the Winnies
Friday, November 30th, 2007

Heading to LA for the weekend for the Winnies.
I’m-a hang out with friends and look forward to being entertained by Irina’s wacky antics throughout the weekend.
This week has been HELLA stressful for me and as I’m finally wrapping up the week’s business (altering thousands of dollars in jeans, several corporate shows and birthday party gigs, [...]

Cheng
Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

I bumped in to Cheng today. I first meet Cheng the week after the yo-yo episode of Master Of Champions aired on ABC. I was yo-yoing at a bus stop when he ran up to me all excited and introduced himself. He said he had literally just gotten out of Folsom prison. He told me [...]

Case closed!
Friday, October 19th, 2007

Thanks to a comment from the wonderfully astute Ben Yellin, the Case of the Mystery Heirloom is solved!

My friend Rachel will be glad to know that she is the proud owner of a collapsible candlestick… or at least the proud owner of most of a collapsible candlestick.
Within 24 hours of my original posting, Ben [...]

The Case of the Mystery Heirloom
Wednesday, October 17th, 2007

My friend Rachel (who runs a great Sewing and Crafting on Wednesday group) has a mystery device that we are hoping to identify. The mystery object is made out of brass and belonged to Rachel’s grandmother. It has an arm with three joints and a collapsible tripod stand. When fully collapsed it makes a flat [...]

Text Based Blogging
Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

I’ve just recently began experimenting with on the go blogging, but my buddy Karl has been using his cell phone (and it’s attached camera) as the his only medium for blogging for a few years now.
I really like the picture he posted today of a modded VW Beetle with a truck bed (img from Karl’s [...]

Do the TwitterWave
Monday, October 1st, 2007

This Wednesday I’m going to start a TwitterWave.
What’s Twitter? It’s a social network built around the question “What are you doing?”. Users post updates (usually via their cell phones or laptops) using 140 characters or less.
What is a Twitter Wave? Um, I’m not sure. I imagine it’s something like doing the wave at a concert… [...]

Serendipity on the 9:40 Dublin/Pleasanton
Thursday, September 27th, 2007

Last night I had plans with Matt (aka Bomarr Monk) to trade one of my denim wallets for a copy of his new cd “Freedom From Frightened Air” and a collection of mini documentaries.
Well, for whatever reason, Matt couldn’t meet up last night so the whole thing didn’t happen.
Skip to this morning… I jumped on [...]

We were never dry.
Friday, September 7th, 2007

I don’t know exactly what reaction these guys are aiming for with this ad. I guess it’s trying to take a disaster and turn it into something lighthearted, but nothing that says “You’ve totally gotta come see New Orleans.”
