  • Heard a keynote address from

    Heard a keynote address from Margaret Wheatley this morning. At one point she was talking about the commonality of all peoples and how the Olympic Games was such a great example of this. That, at the games, the different countries would share in their diversity by engaging in penetrating. I sat stunned. No one else […]

  • Just when you thought it

    Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water: A nuclear bomb, 100 times more powerful than the one dropped on Hiroshima, is lying 10km off the east coast of the United States. The 3450kg hydrogen bomb, known as a Mark 15 weapon, has been lying off the coast of Georgia […]

    Been working on my web design portfolio – hoping to pick up some clients at this conference I’m going to. I even re-did my Palm V’s electronic business card – I added a chili recipe to my contact info and tell people to email for the banana bread recipe… hee hee. I’ve solicted recommendations from […]

    MY CO-WORKER JOSETTE: See the vending machine? All they have is white crackers. ME: Stop talking about me, Josette.

  • Oh, I'm a-hurtin' y'all. Hydrating

    Oh, I’m a-hurtin’ y’all. Hydrating like a maniac but my headache persists. I think I killed off all my digestive microbes last night. I need some yogurt. At least now I won’t have to get sloshed for opening night tonight. Jesus Christ. I have that feeling where everything seems about a foot farther away than […]

  • Just got in from

    Just got in from the opening night party for the W hotel on Adams. Three and a half martinis later I’m dancing on the dance floor and shaking my sweet ass to the DJ’s. Brigitte was there since 7 and had had four matinir already. There was no coat check so I stuffed my leather […]
