Is anyone out there really good with Photoshop or do you know someone who’s really good? If so, I have a relatively simple (ie, one image) job for you/them. I need to take a picture of myself and photoshop it to look both old-style (ie, 1700s) in terms of dress and awesome in terms of [...]
In what has become somewhat of a tradition, I am concluding my annual trip to Georgia. The trip usually consists of some combination of Athens and Atlanta but this year it was just an Atlanta version. In 2006 and 2007 (the year we filmed thepokerfilm) I lived in Atlanta in the fall. In 2008 I [...]
I flew back from Paris a week ago after spending a week at the quasi-hellish place most commonly known as Disneyland Paris. No, I didn’t fly all the way to Paris to visit a boring theme park. I went there for the 2011 World Weightlifting Championships, also known as the WWC. One of the main [...]
This past weekend I went down to Washington DC to visit my sister (who actually lives in Maryland on the outskirts of DC). I’ve been to Washington a number of times in my life (given that I grew up in Philadelphia, it’s pretty close) but it been at least a few years and I hadn’t [...]
I virtually never discuss politics or religion on this blog but given the state of things in the US, I feel compelled to say something. First off, I do not consider myself a member of either party because I am split on issues so neither party really represents a set of ideas that I would [...]
Yesterday I attended the wedding of my friend and business partner, Adam Small. The wedding was a bit west of San Jose, Costa Rica and he married an awesome Costa Rican girl named Lilly. Blog readers probably know Adam as one of the founders and admins on PocketFives. He now works as our company CEO [...]
In the last few weeks, three 20-something year old people I’m tangentially connected to have been killed in collision related accidents. I’ve only even met one of these people and I only met him for about 30 minutes at his birthday party. But still, it’s sobering when someone is a healthy 20-something one minute and [...]
I know most readers aren’t aviation geeks like I am but this video is just awesome regardless: It’s a video of a United flight landing at LAX. The lighting, approach path, low altitude approach, song (the song is Los Angeles by Sugarcult, great song), speed of the video, etc just combine to make it awesome. [...]
As I alluded to in my previous entry, I am giving serious thought to moving back to the east coast — maybe sooner rather than later. I do like a lot of things about Vegas: no state tax, no traffic, cheap, tons of good restaurants, nice weather (for me), close to Cali, lots of people [...]
I’m currently visiting San Diego. I went on a hike today with a decent view. Sorry to all those back home on the east coast dealing with a crap ton of snow. I might be joining you all for next winter…
This is something I’m dealing with right now. As I stated in my previous entry, I’m doing a bit of a pullup challenge right now. While doing 100 yesterday wasn’t all that difficult, my body is telling me otherwise today. I’m only about one third through my 100 for today and some of the reps [...]
I didn’t realize it had been so long since I updated the blog. I’ll try to be more on top of that even when I’m busy traveling. The last 8 days I’ve been on a trip to the US where I was all over the place. First I was in San Diego [...]
My car is fixed. I had the radiator fan overnighted from California and I had the car back by midday Saturday. It’s running great so I’m happy with how things turned out. My next mission is to get more keys for the car. I only have one set and it’s kind [...]
So I got home on Saturday and didn’t do much other than a bunch of laundry and putting stuff away. I was driving around on Monday when I noticed that the temperature of the car was really high. Also, the A/C wasn’t really blowing all that cold. At one point, the right [...]
