Can I give an anticipatory 'ooooohh' now?

Do they really call it that? lol
Geeking out.
One of my goals this year is to set up some side streams of income, additional passive income as well as doing side work to earn extra cash. Reading a lot of Tim Ferriss and Ramit Sethi on the subject, there's lots of interesting things to consider and learn. I can see all your eyes glazing over now.

Never read his stuff but I agree with the concept.
Sadly, hookin' doesn't give residuals so I'm fucked out of luck

I suppose it would work with very consistent cardio, but as I'm trying to put on about 10lbs of muscle at the moment, I'm not doing any cardio. And even when I do (which was when I tried to listen to audio books), I do high intensity interval stuff and I'd lose track of what was happening during the sprints. 
Going to Shanghai next week, 3rd time's the charm?
Have to get a new passport, but we're going to check out some Yunnan / Shanghaiese style cuisines, maybe revisit Gourmet Cafe or this Turkish restaurant we found there. I'm hoping we have time to check out the Propaganda Museum as well as see the famous Shanghai Circus.

Victoria? Nanaimo? I lived in Victoria for 7 years. Tofino's still one of my favorite places in the world.
Just visited Hong Kong and Australia for the first time last year. I'd love to visit Japan again.
May I ask, why Canberra? I didn't go when I visited Australia, but most Australians I know didn't have many great things to say about it, city-wise.
Victoria! We left when I was young, so I've never really lived there. I always feel weird when I visit, but I think I like it.
I saw that you and your lady were visiting, but I was in regional West Australia at the time. What did you think of Hong Kong? I loved it so much, I try to recreate little pieces of it in my apartments.
One of the best things I can say about Canberra are that it's only three hours from Sydney, so I suspect I'm with the popular opinion. I don't like it, but I liked where I was even less.
Also, my long term plan involves a postgraduate program in one of a list of schools in England, Germany, America, or Japan. The Australian National University has the best reputation in Australia for scientific research, so that defined the destination for me. I can tough out Canberra for a few years.

I don't want to eat eggs off of a naked girl. Poutine, been there, sushi, it's great. But not eggs.
I want to experience samadhi through lycanthropy - tantric bliss with the sprouting of giant canines and howling at the moon. ("Nobody, nobody, nobody knows, How much I love the maiden as I tear off her clothes")

It looks like you're wearing 3D glasses in your prof pic. HAHAH
Embarrassing admission - when I was a child I'd pop on my father's vinyl copy of Trooper's Hot Shots, blast "The Boys in the Bright White Sports Car" and "Raise a Little Hell" and rock out like a motherfucker.
Come to think of it, it's not that embarrassing after all.

I'm bad at announcing prices, I need to know what you'd like more precisely
There are quiet moments, even when they're not quiet, late at night, moments when your brainwaves achieve a certain vibrancy, a frequency of long cool tones, that intermingle with the earth's magnetic resonance, salting your thoughts into the ionosphere.
The mindset is one of panouissement, cool detachment laced with curlicues of possibility.
It's difficult to describe, but you feel like that with naked eyes...

Love it.
platypuz:
Now that sounds a grand way to spend a summers night,tho its winter there isnt it.
I can't sleep, so I'm drinking Jameson, eating cereal, and listenin' to Frank Sinatra's "In the Wee Small Hours."
Well I was. Now I'm listening to "Watertown" - one of Frank's great unknown albums. There's something about the pain and self-delusion on "the Train" that's absolutely devastating.
I need to put up my new podcast tomorrow, all the songs are ready, I've just been super...

Are you eating the cereal in the Jameson? Because that would make for a dandy breakfast.
I didn't make any New Year's resolutions this year, but here's a selection of my big list (101 Things in 1001 Days) that I expect to do this year:
- Eat at St. John's Restaurant in London
- visit Barcelona
- walk the Camino to Santiago
- fly a WWI style biplane (this idea actually came from bantering with Al many moons ago
- spend...

Wait.. Why's that funny?
wolfmystique:
Except when the mustache is on me, then I want to give myself a mustache ride but im just not that flexible,
Photos from my Xmas, dinner at one of the best restaurants meals of my life.
We ate at Longjing (Dragon Well) Manor, a restaurant in the Hangzhou tea fields. Imagine taking a taxi up through the darkness in the mountains on a tiny road. The taxi asks for directions several times, and you arrive, greeting by your own private waitress. She gives you a tour...

It is, it is. One of the less recognised most beautiful cities in Europe I think. I never get bored of living here :-)
baudot:
Berlin, or so I'd intended. If you look quite closely at the pic, you'll notice that there is a flight to Berlin shown there, but it is occurring in the past despite never having been given a gate.
P.S. Looks delicious.

One thing that people have never accused me of is not being aware of what's going on. I'd be out of Montreal for six months and people were still asking me where they should go. One of the reasons is that I read a lot.. a lot about all kinds of different things. So when pygmy and I were planning on going to Hangzhou for...

It really does all look wonderful. Happy New Year!

I have that movie!!! In my "to watch pile!" I mean I bought it already.. crazyness!! 
Because I'm a swell fellah I bought Pygmy a bubble gun, which she loves.
Unfortunately she's now taken to making surprise guerrilla raids on me while I'm on the toilet and showering me with bubbles.
For those who've been asking we had a really lovely trip to Hangzhou, I'm currently editing my photos (more nice ones taken than any China trip so far), but when...

datsun:
how funny. I lunched at CP the other day & thought of you. I think you really need to visit SF so you & the lady can come dine and taste wine with me. Napa Valley and Alice Waters are calling!
Je sens comme le diable en forme de cavalier.
I keep thinking in French lately, small curlicues of Quebec and Canada winding themselves up and out of my DNA.
Time to gather up these mental wood shavings and make something of them.
