This blog post was written while I was in transit in Europe but I couldn’t post it to my site until now. After being overdue for both a new car and a long vacation, I decided summer 2008 would be my time to take European Delivery of a new BMW 335i hard-top convertible. I arrived [...] In mid-May I bought an Argus Bean 5 MP camera from Best Buy. I was captivated by the industrial design and ruggedness of the camera. It can clip like a carabiner to a bag or belt loop, is weather resistant and has pretty simple controls. Though it is designed for kids, I thought it would make [...] I can’t remember my time for the last two years, but this year I managed to finish at 1:20 which meant I finished probably in the middle of the runners, before the walkers, most naked people and all drunks. After finishing, I walked back to the 5 mile mark and met up with some coworkers [...] I wanted to try out a scenario I have been desiring for a while now so I took my new xo to yerba buena gardens, got on the free wifi and did a little browsing, capped off by this post.

Dave is one of the jazz greats and I have always wanted to see him perform live. As a drummer, his Time Out album is one of those things you must own. For those who don’t know the album, it features non-traditional [...] In my MBA program, I had an organizational behavior professor who loved to draw diagrams. It seems like he would diagram just about any point he was trying to make. This article in the Village Voice takes it to a whole new level (but doesn’t take it to the Bay). According to an article today in the Capital Times in Madison the “sconnie” culture is the new cheesehead for Wisconsin! My younger brother’s company sells “sconnie” shirts and accessories. Maybe they should make some kind of foam-rubber thing to put on your head at Lambeau Field. Omar, does this mean you can collect royalties? http://news.independent.co.uk/media/article320877.ece |
