We’ve been having very strange weather in the valley lately. The other day it was hailing. Yesterday the wind was blowing so hard it blew apart a power cable on top of the office. Today I woke up to a sight that I hadn’t seen in four previous winters in Los Angeles. Yes, that is […]
pressing
one of these days very soon I’m going to attempt to switch everything on this blog from being run by Pmachine to WordPress. There isn’t a cut and dry process for this – and needless to say I’m no programmer … so you may come to visit one day and find a blank screen… or […]
all hail broke loose
Yesterday around 3:30pm PST it started hailing in the valley. It did it once for maybe five minutes, and then started again a few minutes later for a second round. Everyone at the office was pretty jazzed about it except for me. I’ve seen the car repair bill for hail damage. I’ve seen (home) windows […]
orientation
On Saturday I woke up bright and early (okay, maybe not so bright) to attend the Pepperdine incoming MBA student orientation. By my count there were about 160 students. After getting funnelled through the ID taking room (which backed up quickly after I’d come through) we went to a breakfast room. It became very apparent […]

art wha?
On Thursday night Aaron and I met up for what will possibly be the last Art Walk for me for two years (my classes will be on Thursday nights). We hit up the Hive gallery first – as that always seems to be the best. Once again it was the only gallery with any pieces […]
woohoo
no internet for me (at home)!
separated at birth?
Anyone notice how the chia pet theme song sounds the same as the sanford and son theme? Hum them to yourself…and you’ll see what I mean… Unless I’m nuts…
cage
Yet another good song used in a tv commercial… Although – I guess I approve; usually David Fincher makes good films…
the lloyd works in mysterious ways
Today many people at our office received gifts from up north. No I don’t mean Santa, I mean our Canadian branded locations. The gifts (for executives) were a laptop briefcase and a leather travel (bathroom) bag. Both were fairly good quality (the bathroom bag was leather), but more importantly this is perfect timing – as […]
