So I get YouTube “top most viewed” RSS feed in my Bloglines- it’s very entertaining, and keeps you up on the latest silly amateur videos. I am reading this Russian thread “Кто мог бы быть президентом?” - “ktoh- mog boy boyt prezedentum” “who should be (more like can) president” on a movie with Putin quoting [...]

Reading a lot about Lapland lately. I have a bunch of ideas for a trip- going to Germany-Poland-Lithuania-Russia, then over to Sweden. Then last night talked to my friend, the one who cavorted around China with me, and got excited about just going to Sweden specifically: the ice hotel, cross-country skiing. Doing some [...]
Second to last game, and I scored twice! I can’t f-ing believe it! I never score!!! I got 40% of our points! (yes another low-score game).
I talked to trainer (yes, I am the bastion of elite and do personal training sessions, which I excessively enjoy, as I’m a narcissist). And I talked to her at [...]
Took my dad out to golf a month ago, and went for a repeat with my mom this weekend. I do like golf, it just taps into a compulsive side of me that also really likes the game of pool.
I bought an expensive Nike “light bag” that revolutionized my game- I ended up picking up [...]

“Why does Tom work here?” Sosa asked Beth. It seemed like just another cafe in the Mission, except for the line of fixed track bikes out front, and a solid crowd of digerati.
“Because this is gossip central.” She said, rummaging in her purse; today it was a “newspaper purse”– lacquered old Chinese newspapers folded [...]
Mac still felt on the outs with Beth ever since he’d told her about Jelly. He knew he was lame for not telling her right when they got back together, but he was just so happy that she was talking to him, it wasn’t hte right time to say, “Oh, you know your best friend? [...]
From the New Releases at the North Beach library branch, I yanked:
A Life in the Merde, Stephen Clarke
To tell you what I thought of it, let me just say: after finishing the last sentence I chuckled, then called brother-in-law to talk about it, then went online to library and reserved the next in line, In [...]
SJ 1/2 marathon- thanks chester & kate!
To blog, or to journalize
So a co-writer on a popular blog site, that I blog for lately, had an interesting run in today with real-world events. Or, should I say, I saw the distinction between what it is to be a blogger (or, blawgeur), and what journalism is, or [...]
Sosa rummaged through Poobar’s case file and found the Xerox of the business card, with the bloody fingerprint on the back. He read the business card outloud to Mikey. “Tom Donoghy, ValleyIst.” He turned the card back and forward. “Why would Mark put this in Poobar’s pocket?”
“Who is this guy anyway?” Mikey asked. He checked [...]
