On Baseball

On Baseball March 29th, 2005 @ 9:23 pm PST

I step into the batter’s box, placing my right foot in the hole … scraped inside the back chalk line. I am aware of nothing but [the pitcher] — not the crowd, not the infield in and Lord knows not the blue sky. This moment is the essence of the game, its molecular core. It […]

GIANTmicrobes!

GIANTmicrobes! March 28th, 2005 @ 8:52 pm PST

Here’s one for the “weird” file: GIANTmicrobes! I always wanted a stuffed rhinovirus! We make stuffed animals that look like tiny microbes — only a million times actual size! Each 5-to-7 inch doll is accompanied by an image of the real microbe it represents, as well as information about the microbe. link via 8 Ways […]

Weekend Update

Weekend Update March 28th, 2005 @ 8:14 pm PST

I had a great Easter weekend. Dinner at La Loggia’s Friday night. (Inexplicably sans web site for linking. A great restaurant in Studio City. Don’t sit in the patio area if you can help it.) A fairly uneventful but relaxing Saturday topped off by The Upside of Anger. (A wonderful flick, I loved it.) Fell […]

The Commonly Confused Words Test

The Commonly Confused Words Test March 28th, 2005 @ 7:02 pm PST

Amazing! According to this test I am an English Genius. It was not a surprise to see that I scored a perfect 100%, actually, on the advanced sections. What was shocking was that I scored in the embarrassingly-low 80s on what were supposed to be the simple sections. That, and the fact that I could […]

Musical Lists

Musical Lists March 27th, 2005 @ 7:59 pm PST

I just found one of the top ten funniest things on the Internet. Some crazy kids started making lists based on songs, and they are just hysterical. Here’s one of my favorites, but there are hundreds. You must go read them. It is time to: play the music light the light put on makeup dress […]

Los Angeles

Not So Professional March 25th, 2005 @ 5:56 pm PST

Almost every day I pass this squat, imposing building on my way to work. It makes me laugh every morning. Today I happened to simultaneously have my camera on me and get stopped at the red light across the street. I snapped this photo so you can chuckle at it, too.

Los Angeles

Thursday Night @ the Roxy March 25th, 2005 @ 4:11 pm PST

Another Thursday night, another becky show at the Roxy. This was — if I remember correctly — the tenth Thursday in a row (excluding St. Patrick’s) that I’ve been there. This time I experienced Los Angeles parking nirvana when I got there. Not only did I get a meter right across the street, but it […]

Lesley University

Lesley University March 24th, 2005 @ 12:51 pm PST

Congratulations to my little sister, Michelle! She just got accepted to Lesley University! Right in the middle of Harvard Square! How cool is that?

Vegas, Baby

Vegas, Baby March 24th, 2005 @ 9:45 am PST

Yesterday I cut out of work a bit early, hopped on a Hawker 800 with my girlfriend and her family, and flew to Las Vegas to catch Cirque Du Soleil’s “O” at the Bellagio. Except for a quick trip to the Green Valley Ranch last year, this was actually my first trip to Vegas since […]

Los Angeles

Living in LA March 21st, 2005 @ 10:55 pm PST

Sometimes it’s ultra-cool to live in Los Angeles. My girlfriend’s little sister is in town, so we went to Mr. Chow for dinner tonight. (It’s only the best restaurant in the universe, so if you ever get a chance, I highly recommend it. Sly Stallone and Burt Reynolds were sitting together at the next table, […]
