HHDL in SF

HHDL in SF
Lisa & I came to SF to hear HHDL teach. Deep stuff. And as an added bonus I finally got to hear the Gyuto Monks perform.

Whoa...

Renting a car

I go online and reserve a rental car. I give them my name, dates and time of pickup and dropoff, credit card info, address and phone, whatever they ask for. And I've rented from them for years.

So what's the first thing they do? Ask me all of this again and type. And type. And type some more. I swear it would be faster if I walked up to the counter cold and did it from scratch. Tell me how technology is helping either side here.

Spam. It just keeps getting funnier & funnier.

Ahhhh, spam. The digital kind, not the tinned meat product. I gave up mammels 30-odd years ago. I wish the email variety would shun me.

If nothing else the subject lines give me cause for pause:
  Have jellyfish the calamity
  To be poultry
  And of salvation
  So what
  Even FBI agents must get a degree first, read how
  Re: you hangable
  FW: jujube provider
  Or shave an salamander
  The power of a dumb idea
  He flouts it joyfully.
  on confucian the jellyfish
  Is your dick like a scared turtle
  ensconce drapery
  Fine, i won't tell them
  be altitude
  Of course, this practice may get you shot, bitten by a dog or arrested.
  so true
  Bring back that fresh PC feeling
  Go be zoroastrian

Hey, I just throw it out. I don't write it!

Don't look Billy. Cover your eyes

nekkid ginger
And you want me to put this in my mouth? Besides, I wanted Mary Anne. Ginger would have been waaaay too high maintenance on that island.

Who, me???
Appropriate in that Coleman and I are going to NYC next week. I've always thought the sidewalks in The Big Apple were vacuums that sucked the change outta yer pockets.

Going to Boston too. Lobster at Summer Shack, hangin' with old homies, and buying art in New York. Long live JetBlue!
