Just a Guy on the Street

I took that band to this year's Eagle Rock Music Festival, too many miles away from your place. It bears repeating that you should have been there with me.

My Tumultuous Advertising Career

Cable Cars and Coffee

So this is how it goes, I think. You struggle into work, bleary-eyed and nothing but a full day of work staring you hard in the face. You check your e-mail accordingly ("No thanks," "Not him/her again!," "I'm saving that one...."), and then you think, "What's that GuyinTheWorld guy up to?" Well, maybe you don't, but now you have.

You sip your coffee, you go somewhere, and then you're back at work. Just like that.

Last week, Paris. This week, you're standing, precariously clinging to the rail of a San Francisco cable on the Powell/Market line through the city to Fisherman's Wharf, and you're thinking, "That just saved me five bucks." Actually, you're thinking, "I'd so rather be there. With that guy."

Enjoy your coffee, astronauts.

Where Have I Been? Um, Right Here and There, Mostly Here

Yes, Astronauts, It's been a little while. Um, I moved-ish. I got a new job. I went here. I went there. I took my guitar and some friends to Laguna Beach, and it looked and sounded like this...

Stairway to San Jacinto

Continuing the Itty Bitty Adventure Collection©. I shot this just after returning from Europe in November. I only just put it together. It's the aerial tramway in Palm Springs, California. Now, I can't go EVERYWHERE for you, you gotta leave your house sometime, okay? Or maybe you don't.

An Afternoon in Idyllwild

A quick trip to one of the top 100 art towns in America. Trees, some snow, crab enchiladas, and um, more trees. And some snow on the way.

A Neighborhood Like Mine

Sometimes it's just about the way the light falls. It was such a stupidly beautiful day today, I grabbed my camera, got on the train, and went from just about here to just about there.

And now, while you're taking a break from all that slacking off: For our Los Angeles visitors, can you name every location in the video? First prize: Nothing. Second prize: Half of nothing. To go. With ice.
