The popular line from Animal House may not 100% reflect upon me, well at least not the middle one, but the first one I’m feeling certainly does. Turn 37, be married with a 3-year old and work from home? Yeah, that’ll do it to you. Have that ol’ metabolism slow down?
Try 202.6!
Gulp! Back in 2001 [...]

Morongo – an evening session in the middle of the desert – Shane’s first poker trip
Posted in Poker on October 29, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
The wifey wanted to get away for the weekend,…and it actually she that suggested Morongo a casino resort just 90 minutes from L.A. Hey, this hypnotism thing is actually paying off. Now there’s ulterior motives to probably everything we do in life as altruistic as we all may come across. There’s a set of outlet malls [...]
2008 Baseball Season in sites…

It’s been simply just about 15 minutes since the Boston Red Sox have won their 2nd World Series in four years. Who would have ‘thunk’ it just five years ago? But this era of baseball has changed and so has the Yankees-Red Sox rivalry forever. But with today comes a changed Yankees team actually. The [...]
Hollywood Park – NL340 tourney

The good news is that I finished 15th in this tournament. The bad news is that they only paid the top nine! In a rather thin field, maybe 90 or so, they also had rebuys, which I loathe. Started 3,000 in chips, 25-25 with 40 minute rounds. I think in the first 3 rounds I [...]

One of the reasons we went to NY this weekend was to attend a charitable benefit put on by our friends Ron and Amy Watkins. Their son Niklas has Fragile X. Fragile X is a form of inherited mental impairment ranging from learning disabilities to more severe cognitive or intellectual disabilities. FXS is the most [...]
Pride or the Yankees

I was in New York over the weekend and have had a few days to let the news of Joe Torre’s (or some would call it ‘management’s) decision to turn down an incentive-laden deal to continue managing the New York Yankees. After owner’s George Steinbrenner’s comments during the series with the Indians, I’m sure Mr. [...]
Six Paparazzi stalking the birthday boy…

So we’re headed to New York for the weekend to celebrate Shane’s 3rd birthday with his cousins and grandparents. So we’re leaving in our black Saab and start driving out of our condo when we see flashbulbs and camera lights going off. Huh? There are literally six paparazzi camped outside our condo. How’d they know [...]
Interesting optical illusion

Was checking my AOL email and there’s always stupid stuff on the net, but this one was kind of interesting. I saw this woman going counter-clockwise and cannot contort my brain to see it any other way. I guess some see her going clockwise and some see her going both ways? Both ways now that’s [...]
The non-handwasher – Jeremy Piven

One of my favorite star sitings was when at a conference a couple of years ago in Las Vegas. We were staying at the Hard Rock Hotel and they were filming an episode of Entourage. It was fun seeing most of the cast members, including Adrian Grenier and Kevin Connolly who was with his then girlfriend…the ‘other’ [...]
Opinions are like…

You know the rest of the phrase above. Well, it’s true. We go for our fifth opinion tomorrow on Shane. Our pediatrician believes he very well have a high functioning case of autism, while the State, the school district, and now UCLA child development center do not put him in that bucket – which is [...]
