Listen, people. I have checked and double-checked my calendar, and as far as I can tell, we are in 2007. Technology has made impressive advances over the last few centuries, and I can certainly recall many things becoming obsolete over the years. I don't have an 8-track player anymore. I threw out...
One of the fun things about no longer being an Apple employee is that I'm now much more at liberty to speak my mind about Apple's products. Apple may have a reputation for being a bit of a cult, but in my experience, most insiders are only too willing to call a spade a spade when the company's...
Sunday Scribbles for June 22, 2008 What models of cellphones had you had and what led you in purchasing the next one? Mitsubishi Trium Galaxy This was my first cellphone. It's a sexy phone. Hehe. It was only distributed by Smart. I didn't really intend to get rid of it. The reason I had to move to...
Today my long-lost running partner Shawn and I ran the Indianapolis Mini-Marathon. We made this commitment shortly after I regained consciousness following the '06 Chicago Marathon; we decided that we should try to meet up at a race somewhat halfway between us (he now lives in Dayton, OH, while I'm...
Here I am on the Eurostar back from Paris—my fourth time there since I moved to London, and the longest by far, over two weeks. I can’t say that I really did much. I didn’t have a single great meal, not one. I went to the theater with my father, but just the Comédie-Française and only as a...

I can't count how many times I have stood in the wine shop looking to get a good, reliable wine that won't break the bank to give to the host of the dinner party I have been invited to? Back in 2004, at a wine tasting in Portugal, I snapped a photo of a Douro wine that I really liked with my...

Walking home down Main Road, we saw this old car. It's apparently the corporate vehicle of a traditional barbershop in the V & A Waterfront in Cape Town. The photo above, and this blog entry, was respectively photographed and is being edited on my new mobile phone, a Nokia N73. It's a phone that's...
how can i let it go? photography has changed the way i look and see. originally, when i had my cameraphone last year, it became that kind of a tool for me. and when i lost it to the plumbing, i adjusted, eventually. i've had this one about six weeks, and it has transformed me again, given an outlet...

09:15 Just had a really shitty dream with my ex in it where he made me feel bad about myself, just like he used to. Projecting much? # 12:26 I took a trip on a train and I thought about you. / I passed a shadowy lane and I thought about you. # 14:20 "He's too beautiful. He's too much twisted steel...

I have talked to this man two times. The first time I wasn't serious bout much. I started talking to him again on Thursday, I think. I've grown up now and not really much bout games. We exchanged numbers and we started texting. I learned lots of great things bout him and got use to his habits. He's...
Art Walk is a monthly event that brings well over 4,000 people to downtown Los Angeles. http://www.downtownartwalk.com Galleries are packed with tourist like visitors. One gallery owner told me he has had 1,000 plus people jam their way into his space. Well, maybe that says something about the...

After an insanely long cold streak here in Chicago, one that saw temperatures in the 30s (5 C) all the way up to the beginning of June, I'm finally out on my bicycle again daily; and that has me trying to get back on the summer schedule I was maintaining last year, i.e. more going out, less pot,...
