“Your Promise”- (My First Song)

Amazing what a little inspiration can do for you. I managed to write the majority of these lyrics in about 30 minutes. I figure why not. I’ve written a couple poems so I’ll try my hands at writing a song. I was feeling very inspired and the creative juices were just flowing.
Inspiration? Someone having the [...]

Rest In Piece, Max. Truly Man’s Best Friend.

He was suffering from diarrhea, wouldn’t eat for the past 24 hours, and could no longer stand. His hind legs were too weak. All he [...]

Weird People (From Meetup)

From time to time, I do hear of the comment that some of the local Meetups have weird people in attendance. I never disagreed with this observation.

It seems lately that I keep being labeled as a straight shooter from business and social friends alike. Here is one email where a business friend of mine, Des, introduced me to a few of his contacts. He says the following about me;

When An Old Man Yells Racist Remarks At You.

This happened to me over the weekend;
I was driving through the parking lot of a shopping center. I saw this old grouchy looking man with poofy hair trying to crossing my path. He was talking on his cell phone at the same time. I waited for him to cross but he sure was taking a [...]

Want To Be Surrounded By Girls? Go Horseback Riding.

I am planning a series of upcoming events for my Young Adventurers and Company outdoors group for this summer. Being here in DC, there are so many great outdoors events that I can plan. I definitely have tons of things to put on the outdoor social itinerary for this group.

Defining Asians.

I found this online. Loving this stereotype. I can safely say that I’m only part Asian because I fulfilled #2, #6, and #8. 3 out of 8 only makes me 37% Asian. Damn.
