Mission Abort

This dog’s name is Apollo. He is Flynn’s dog. Last night, he led a group of improvisors at UCB . But unfortunately we lost. How sad is that? When a gimmick of a dog that does improv doesn’t win a contest we’ve come to a sad state of affairs in the world.

Big Fish

I love fishing. We used to go fishing at Burke Lake near our house in Virginia or we’d just walk along the creekbed in the backyard till it came to the Resevoir, also known as Huntsman Lake. It was there that I caught the biggest fish I’ve ever caught. A channel catfish that was a [...]

Gunk Fork

‘Tash and I went to celebrate her engagement and another ‘deal’ in the works. We went to City Crab to eat some crustaceans. It had been some time since I’d eaten a crab with all his clothes on and I was a little worried I wouldn’t be able to figure out the secret [...]

A/C

Yesterday, I waited at home all day to have my old air conditioned replaced. But my ‘old’ a/c was really only a year old. So it was really kind of fruitless, the exchange. But they were doing the whole building. I was pretty mad about it but then felt fortunate as [...]

Four Square!

So today I spent playing Four Square in Tompkins Square Park with Hammy and Natasha and other Four Square stalwarts. It’s always amazing to me to watch people play Four Square because almost always some other grown-up will come around and want to play. You’ll encounter some people who have some pretty aggressive [...]
