I don’t care what she thinks, or anybody else… I’m posting this HERE because it’s funny, God dammit!!
Besides, it took me like 5 minutes to Google and locate 6 pictures of a black beach chair! It would be a travesty for such extensive research to go to waste and/or go unnoticed and/or go unrecognized.
(The only one that may appreciate this is Lisa... isn't that right, Lisa? Waterbutt.)
Kudos to myself.
let the games begin!!
This is my friend Paul
And he's a jackass

Ever get the feeling that some things just aren't meant to be? I do...
And so it goes that another 16-week training session - with all my hopes and dreams of improving my time at this weekend's upcoming Carlsbad Half Marathon - has once again been pulled from my grasp...
literally.

That’s right... the dishes are DONE!... which mean's I can finally get on with this day. (3:45pm isn’t that late of a start when you’re officially on vacation!... is it?)
The dishes, of course, aren't really dishes at all (though, ironically enough, I did just finish doing the dishes); the dishes I'm referring to is my Sunday long run. Though I may kid when I refer to my long runs as a chore, don’t be fooled. They’re NOT. You know I love them! I wouldn’t put myself through (this sort of) pain unless I really, really, loved it - right? – though it may sometimes feel that way (like a chore) immediately before or after (hence my current state of disillusionment).
With much to do today - including packing my bags for Hawaii - I had plenty of real chores to (start and) complete; though I couldn't let this gorgeous day pass with out an epic run (sunny & 68!). So after taking the bike down to PB for a cup of coffee at my favorite PB coffee shop (Turquoise Cafe) - which in it's own right is an epic adventure in itself - I geared up, grabbed some Gu, my pod, and a off I went...
Happy New Year Everyone!
…yet another great one for the books!
I hope you all had a great ‘06. More pics to come…
Hands down, Phil’s in Hillcrest makes the best goddamn pulled pork sandwich in San Diego County. (And if I could constructively insert another swear word to emphasize my enthusiasm – I would.)
I’ve been thinking… if my pursuit for happiness in construction doesn’t pan out, I’m going to see Phil about maybe doing some modeling work… you know, to help him sell more of his sandwiches.
Just ask Lisa and Jim… they love Phil’s too! Just look at Lisa, she can hardley contain herself (btw... the catsup is NOT for the sandwich!!)
... and Jim, well... Jim can’t wait to put Phil’s pork in his mouth.
As a sandwich model, I appreciate that there’s only one thing more important than making love to the camera – and that's to convince the public (i.e. my fans) by truly believing in the product I'm endorsing!

Probably the earliest flyswatters were nothing more than some sort of striking surface attached to the end of a long stick.
