I don’t know what it is with Jack Russells, but they really seem to like water. My last dog, Jackie, would swim underwater in my pool for 30+ seconds at a time, for hours on end. And when I took a shower, she would scratch on the glass shower door until I would [...]

I hate politics, but love technology, and this picture was created using some very cool technology (I’m sure Dave Bullock knows about this, but for this cell-phone photographer- the technique blows me away)
See how far you can zoom in on this pic- you can waste a lot of time looking around at the crowd…

Last night I had dinner at the new Fleming’s at Olympci and Fig in LA Live. It was great to return to one of my old South Bay haunts- there was a time I was eating at Fleming’s on Rosecrans at least twice a week- in South Bay it was pretty easy to get [...]

This building is a real piece of work- at any given time SOMETHING MAJOR is not working. It seems that the developer of this project cut a lot of corners on converting it to residential units. I dare not say his name as he has a tendancy to sue bloggers who slam his [...]

I’ve been seeing Yan again, but only about town and at her place. When we go out to eat, whether it’s fast food or nice restaurant, she has me order for her- I thought it was just her custom. Well it turns out she cannot read much English- enough to get by, but not confusing [...]

Well, it’s not really a new contract, just “moonlighting” as it will never pay the bills, but it’s fun as I’m helping a small company make use of my knowledge of various practices I’ve implemented at over 30 Fortunre 1000 companies. Why did I say “420″? Well, it’s in the name of the [...]

Damn Dog!!! She wrecked my budding (well, actually pretty darn steamy) relationship with the Chinese athlete. Yan and I had been pretty much inseperable since our meeting New Year’s Day at the Little Tokyo celebration. She lives close-by in Chinatown so it was so easy to hang-out, get some food, take a [...]

One of my all-time heros, Marius “Pudz” Pudzianowski, 5-times World’s Strongest Man, is a true athletic specimin compared with some of those slobs, and he has the cardio and foot work/speed from being a Olympic boxer. Check out his moves on Poland’s version of “Dancing With The Stars” (he got 2nd place):
EDIT: Someone said [...]

Every year but a couple has seen me get the blues starting around Thanksgiving and carrying through Christmas. It’s a deep-seated issue that started as an only child growing with parents that constantly invited all the aging old great-aunts and “family friends” over to spend a week around Thansgiving or Christmas. Sure, I [...]
