At 4am on Monday morning I stumbled to the bathroom as I so often do in the early morning to relieve the pressure from the previous night’s drinking. No, not that kind of drinking, just drinking water or juice, but I have a bad habit of drinking something late at night. I flip the light […]
facebook, stupid facebook
one of my friends just “became a fan of chocolate milk.” (hangs head and shakes from side to side) where will this end?
Chatsworth Peak
Apparently that oil drum was just below (as in virtually the same thing) Chatsworth Peak as recognized by the US government. Here is a google maps plotting of the GPS coordinates for Chatsworth Peak: View Larger Map What does that mean? Well, it means that yesterday I hiked to a vantage point of 2,314 feet […]
I’m radioactive
My dad pointed out that the area I was in yesterday was the Santa Susana Field Laboratory. Specifically I was wandering around Area 1 and the “southern buffer area.” Apparently the land is still quite polluted and the fires last year released more toxic stuff.

Adventureland
Sunday at noon Victor caught me online and we headed to Shamshiri for lunch. I had the lamb and while it tasted good, it was … “chewy.” Nothing like the super soft lamb I’ve always had at the Westwood Shamshiri. Shamshiri always stuffs you (with rice, mostly) to the point of pain. Today this would […]

Barton was so proud of himself afterwards he put up this message on twitter: Joe Barton single handedly shows why we shouldn’t have Texans OR Christians in government. (Adrienne, you might want to check out […]
Dear Old Dad
So now I can be added to the burgeoning masses that blog about “OMG my mom and/or dad are on facebook!” Yeah, now my dad is on facebook. Nothing wrong with that – dad has always* embraced technology, I remember seeing huge yellow books on our bookcases about learning C+ as a kid. *except for […]
Roger, you devil…
Seven months ago I railed against Roger Ebert because he was apparently a creationist. Recently he has blogged again with an entry called “How I believe in God.” In it he says he is not an atheist, believer or agnostic but rather some sort of mash-up. His views are somewhat close to mine (which maybe […]
