No %s No Cry

Bob Marley said it best. No %s no cry. Any other songs about Frank?

No rush on visiting; I’ll see you when you can make it out.

Baby on the way

1987 Audi 5000CS Turbo Quattro. Sick! I can’t wait.

Jeet Kune Do

Looking unsuccessfuly for a local place to learn Jeet Kune Do.

Does anyone know of a place which teaches Jeet Kune Do in the Palm Harbor, Tampa or Clearwater, Florida areas?

Cancelation

Frank canceled. Shame. Maybe next week. I’ll stock up on bananas.

Bought yummy chicken at Publix.

Don’t drink a lot with meals. Liquid dilutes stomach acid, hindering digestion. Give your body a chance to do its job.

Thanks for the invite, O. 15 minutes became 2 hours. Watched the American version of Ringu with friends. One beer; one movie; 200 jokes. 4.5hrs of sleep for A.

New baby arrived

Olympus E-10 4MP DSLR

I can’t tell you how excellent this camera is. Try it and see for yourself.

Elements of Style

Today’s book recommendation: Elements of Style by Strunk & White. It is my favorite English composition reference.

Four days, $1

Four days in Orlando, $1 spent. Minor failure or spectacular, unbelievable success?

“The best is enemy of the good.” (Russian proverb)

Inspiration

It occurs to me that among the books I’ve read, two stand out as examples of how to lead men and treat people:

Julian “Bean” Delphiki in Orson Scott Card’s Shadow of the Hegemon; and

The Lieutenant in L. Ron Hubbard’s Final Blackout

Two wonderful and prolific writers in several genres, by the way.

Nine incomes, $300 apiece. Nine incomes, $300 apiece.

Apolitical question

Does Al Gore make anyone else’s skin crawl? On a good day, I feel like he wants to kill me.

Drain

Today was a drain. It was a relief to go to the dentist. Her gung fu is the best.

Seminal entry

Reading dvorak today. He pointed out how deliberate and incredibly creepy the Honda ASIMO is. Then he wrote, “You have to draw the conclusion that all phone companies are basically dishonest.”

I was inspired to share my own opinions publicly.
