Because, as the title goes, I’m writing a lot, I’m not going to blog. I’m just going to reference a past blog post that is quite popular. My famous friend Wyatt McDill drives a lot of traffic here. Today, got someone clicking through trying to find Wyatt’s video of indie rocker Jeff Hanson: “This Time [...]
A friend of mine recently had a cranial surgery. In a dream last night, I met him, and we hugged, and I noticed he had a different personality. Kind of carefree and happy. He’s usually happy when he sees me, but this was one of those overall personality shifts that you can sense when you [...]

photo of Minneapolitan filmmaker Wyatt McDill, kung-fu-ing Competitive Online Dating This morning I read this article on sfgate about how the author gets kind of into her MySpace hottie photos. Her thoughts on dating in the world of MySpace reminds me of one of my favorite bar-stool tales. Ex-boyfriend Will – his MySpace profile actually [...]
The Process of Police Investigations for Minor Things Spent a few hours on bike thief stuff today. Above is a surveillance camera shot of the man in action. My bike, and someone else’s in tow. I have a zillion or so images I’ll put on here. Standing around Central Station- a poor tourist from some [...]

Setting: Paul & Eddie’s, dive bar in sleepy Silicon Valley megawealthy suburb, the old Cupertino train station and “inn”. Year: 2006. Tumbleweeds blow by the Lexii. She takes a drag off of her latte. “There were men, a world of men. My mother drove me around Cupertino bars (there are 2) trying to sell me [...]
credit to about.com (I’m not) Breakin’ the Law Tried an experiment with my sis-in-law and mom: going the speed limit. It is actually quite relaxing. Can I say though the number of big trucks that tailgated me? It’s like they’re in their own la-la-land and finally realize they’re inches away from the bumper of a [...]
Fire! Fire! My brother in law, sister, and assorted friends were enjoying a glass of wine on the roof of my apartment yesterday. We were beseiged with mist, basically, since it was a really warm winter day but the precipitation was coming hard. Bro-In-Law goes, “I haven’t really been listening to you guys for the [...]
