I'm the king of the last-minute. My parents have even been telling me this all my life.

Tonight I fly to Paris for a nice 9-day vacation of just being Parisien. Very few tourist sites, lots of cafe-sitting and photography and biking around the city. That's the plan.

But of course, between now and that flight I've got an insane to-do list. And I think...

I've been in Philadelphia all week for work. I did well to visit with SGPhilly kids last night at a bar.

They played an ass-ton of Prince. That was pretty swell.
I got to body-slam someone. Twice. (Gently). This was fun.
I tossed things into cleavage from a distance. A challenge!

We'll have to do this again some time.

I learned an important lesson last night at Vegemite and aka55's birthday celebration.

Strip clubs are sooooooo much more fun when you bring ladies with you.

My week in OBX was terrific. Our house was on the beach, with nothing in between our house and the waves. Moon rises over the water every night, barbecues, constant flows of alcohol, a house full of gear heads and DJs who took up every single outlet in the house, 17 people who were all up for that perfect balance of craziness and relaxation, copious...

I could swear I updated this morning.

I just completed the longest road trip of my life, 10.5 hours to the Outer Banks in North Carolina. Friends and I rented a house right on the beach for a week. We all used to party together back in the day, now we're all independent and, erm, grown up (??)

Actually, as I write this, there's nearly-epileptic...

As of yesterday, I've started a new side-business. It's software. I can't say what it is yet, because it's months from being sellable and it'd be too easy for someone to copy it. I think it'll explode once it's out on the market, but that's me. It could be life-changing, or just an expensive learning experience. It's kind of cool, though. I find myself working...

What to say of my night out last night at the Justin TImberlake concert.
First, gratitude to the ditzy 14-year-old and her friends for the fortitude it took to sell me their extra ticket to a sold-out show for less than even the printed face-value.

Second, props for the terrific set design. JT and the hopelessly talentless Good Charlotte ( ) played in the round,...

I've been all about renting 70s kung-fu movies on Netflix of late. I'm amazed at how many of the titles I remember from back in the day that they have on hand. This was an important part of my tween and early teen years. The Five Deadly Venoms, the Flying Guillotine, the Drunken Monk. Like, I knew what the Wu-Tang Clan was way before it...
