Never Running For President

Out with a friend going to see Rush at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles. We're sitting in the third row center.

It has been a crazy day but the caption says it all. No need to be scared of pictures when you are never running for president. Of course after wildness today that was pretty much guaranteed anyway.

It's a great life.

Ahhh Roomies

Recognize that this picture way just taken (5/5). I saw this note board in my friends kitchen and couldn't stop laughing.

I guess when you share an apartment with a bunch of fresh-out-of-school, amazing-musicians hanging in the L.A scene, this type of tomfoolery is to be expected.

It is one of the subtle reasons I like my life the way it is, as extremely flawed as it may be.

Oh, and go catch the Shaimus show this weekend. They rock!

Shoulders of Giants

One of the most interesting parts of working in the tech sector is watching even the simple become complicated seemingly overnight.

When it comes to innovation the two general trends are to A) twist the ideas of someone else or B) decide that no one else appreciates the problem space like you and do something very different. Obviously there are other forms these are just the most common IMHO.

The downside of the latter is obvious when pursued by people of limited experience who don't seek first to understand.

The downside of the former is how frequently great ideas become useless and perverted once the followers try and "improve" what was a great idea, just so they can claim contribution.

The upsides are significant and common as well but make for much less interesting conversation.

Beautiful Day to be indoors

The view is gorgeous, I only wish I could be out in it instead of under florescent lights indoor.

Ferries at night are my favorite.

You can say that again. I hope it warms up before Memorial Day. Will you be around? Are you around now? Wanna go to Marshill with me tommorrow?

The Cool Kids

The crew from Bangers and Cash were chilling in the overcast drizzle of Seattle.

Their beats are tight, lyrics ludicrous, and they squander their talent on a couch near Greenlake.

But the roomie is hot. Good thing I'm not a creeper.
