2483 miles later…
So I moved again. This time it’s Los Angeles. I bought a new car (Mazda3 sedan) and started planning a trip across eight states to setup a new life in L.A. I said my goodbyes, loaded up the new ride with my earthly possessions and started the road trip. But before I left, I loaded [...]
Indie Flicks, Billion Dollar Mistakes and SNL
- Caught this little indie flick with Morgan Freeman and Paz Vega (the female lead in Spanglish). What a quirky little movie! Freeman plays an out of work character actor that’s dropped off in an predominantly Hispanic neighborhood to study a grocery store manager for a role in a movie. He latches onto Paz Vega, [...]
Dexter’s newfound spontaneity

I can’t remember half the people that supposedly knew me back then. While flipping through the pages, I came across [...]
Simplify Media is Simply Divine
I sat in a coffee shop today and browsed the music on a friend’s laptop. I browsed by albums for a while but eventually found Ben Folds new album by an artist search. I queued up the music and sat there listening to the tracks while sipping my Splenda-filled jolt of caffeine. Of course all [...]
