It’s been a while

Yes, yes, yes. It’s been quite a while since I last posted. It may be a little longer before I post anything of interest. However, I do still know my site login which is good.  I probably should also run some updates. More to come, sooner or later.

Flare Truck, originally uploaded by treffdawg.
In all the years I’ve driven through the Caldecott Tunnel, I don’t think I’ve ever seen the flare truck in action. Luckily there […]

right now

I’m enjoying the free wifi at Bowen’s Pub right now.

One, two, free

The saga that is the bad service I received at Murio’s, is now a trilogy. Not long after I received a response from Sierra Nevada, I received an email from one of the SF distributors that had been cc’d to the response. He too expressed surprise, and disappointment, at the lousy service I […]

Cheers

Well cheers to Sierra Nevada. Man not only posted snarky complaint on his blog. Man also sent email to the Sierra Nevada Brewery alerting them to the situation at Murio’s Trophy Room (the flat beer, not the fraudulent “service”).
Not all that surprisingly I received a response. It read in part:
…what you have […]

RP t-shirt

I forgot to mention in my previous post that the guy sitting behind me was wearing a Radio Paradise t-shirt. I told him that I am a big RP fan. He didn’t seem all that interested. Oh well.

Slacking

I started purchasing music again, got half of my old job back, saw Tegan & Sara perform, heard M.I.A. perform (the show at Amoeba was packed), started training for a half marathon, and became fascinated with Chuck Norris.
When summed up like that, […]

End of a chapter

Smooth Sailing

(picture of the repaired I-580 connector)
Went to the City last night for a birthday party. Ate some good food, drank some good drink, and enjoyed some general merriment. Waking up I figured I best make my break, as to avoid traffic. It ended up being about the best drive back to the suburbs ever. No […]

Good Eats

No, I’m not talking about the Food Network show. Imagine my delight to discover the Donald on my honey. I’d love to meet the genius behind this cross-promotion. There is no doubt that harnessing the powers of the Donald will do wonders for your brand. If it doesn’t, might I suggest […]
