Ok dudes,
I didn’t have brussel sprouts until 2007 and yet somehow the stereotype that they were a totally gross vegetable had permeated my psyche. This must have come from the TV as my mom had never made them and I had never tried them. That being said, I am of the mind set that one should try anything once, excluding things that are clearly super addictive and extremely bad for ones health. Anyway, once upon a serendipitous evening I randomly came upon a dinner party of persons whom I didn’t really know. They treated me to good wine and cheffed up food like Shaolin masters kick ass. It was an incredible spread, of which one of the tasty items was brussel sprouts. At the time I really didn’t even know what the interesting round super sized green booger was.

I woke up to the faint noise of chanting protesters. Later from the hotel breakfast area I could see a hundred or so Indian dudes moving around outside of the hotel. The gate was closed to the hotel entrance. That gate has never been closed before. I had to meet up with a few contractors around the corner at the facility we are in the process of moving. After finishing up my breakfast I made my way to work. I quickly realized that all the roads around where we were working were closed. There were thousands of Indian dudes milling around the street. (more later gotta work)

The night started off with a sushi dinner with Tricia, Dave and Christopher in Burlingame then came into the city and road out to meet Tracy but she was in for the night by the time I was in her hood. I had been wanting to try The Arrow bar, and it’s a really cool place once you get past the crackheads who guard the street out front. I had two Haam’s in a can and then met a few friends for the Kink party. [Read more →]
