I remember postcards. I remember receiving them. Although, I don’t think I have a single one saved. Nor do I remember who may have sent them to me in the past. I remember writing letters. I used to be a letter writer. I was a great letter writer. […]
I’m out in LA, the land of sun, surf and Hollywood dreams. It’s also the land of horrible traffic, poor public transportation infrastructure and oil wells well within beach range. Yes, I am not exaggerating. But I am not here to bash LA. Not really. Today, I […]

I went to Macau, the Las Vegas of Asia, and I didn’t gamble a cent. However, that’s not so much about Macau but instead is more about me. Even when I do go Las Vegas, I gamble a very tiny amount. I go on the penny slots and […]
I have this really obnoxious friend that has been to probably 100 or more countries at this point in life. That isn’t the obnoxious part. But I won’t go into why he is so obnoxious and why it is that he is my friend. I tend to […]
