Too busy today
But I did enjoy a nice meal out with Cory at Miceli’s. No Garrett Wang though.

March 7, 2001I finally got around to reading a magazine that Haim left on my desk. It’s called Web Techniques and it has some interesting articles in it. The January 2001 issue that was on my desk had an interesting article on the building of your web team that is right on target. In a related note, some recruiter called me and asked if I was interested…
March 6, 2001Much testing of the Malibu Luxury this weekend. So far, so good. I know it’s a good mattress when I can sleep for way to long and not be sore or have any aches at all. Also attempted to build sheet inventory by checking out the Strouds Outlet store in Northridge. As expected, pickings were slim for “dual king” and abundant for “California king”. I…
March 5, 2001Malibu Luxury has arrived at the apartment. Boy, what a difference a new mattress makes in one’s life. The definitive test will be tonight and tomorrow when I get to sleep in late. Now that the mattress is in, the rest of the furniture looks a bit low to the ground. Now mind you, I have the same nightstands that I had as a kid.…
March 2, 2001Thanks to Kevin’s editorial prowess, I have gone through all of the Daily Update archives and have fixed some of the grammatical and spelling problems that seem to permeate them. I was thinking of attending a local Star Trek convention to gather some cool Gorn pics with celebrities, but I have discovered a lot has changed with the conventions since the last time I attended…
March 1, 2001Courtesy of Roger’s excellent photography, I submit for your approval: The Gorn with Dhani, Marie, and Sara of the A*Teens Amit didn’t squeeze in, but gets his own photo They did a good job despite some glitches in the playback system. All four of them were really nice. Also kudos to the lady in front of us in line for shooing away about 20 people…
February 28, 2001Today the A*Teens released their second album in the US titled “Teen Spirit“. This is the first that contains non-ABBA songs and more importantly, actually features the guys singing. Tonight at 6pm, they will be signing copies of their album at the Glendale Galleria. My hope is to grab the Gorn and get a shot of him with the A*Teens. You can all thank Joe…
February 27, 2001Yesterday at Disneyland was fun. There is no better thrill than riding the Matterhorn in a driving rainstorm. It adds an extra dimension to the ride to see the rain falling in the floodlights. There is also the thrill of “Is this bobsled going to fly off of the mountain or not?” I was a bit disappointed that they ended up closing the park an…
February 26, 2001Last night I found out I was royally screwed by Enterprise Rent-a-car. Apparently I was charged for the optional insurance. I looked at the contract and sure enough, I initialized the spot where it says I accept it. I seemed to remember the not-quite-honest person at the counter asking me if I wanted to have the optional or regular coverage. I think I said just…
February 23, 2001For the first time in weeks, we have enough juice to keep the power on in California. Not that anyone really noticed. Despite all the talks and the news reports of conservation and cutting back, life didn’t really get affected much by our state’s latest snafu. Maybe it is because I live in LA and we are pretty much insulated from the real world. Of…
