Anders is here for a short visit
Today Anders got here. He is visiting me for about 4 days. We are going to a Megadeth concert in Hollywood and then just hang out for a few days before he keeps going on his trip down to San Diego to be in some kind of advertising award jury.
That gave me a good excuse [...]
Sunday on wheels
Woke up today and just really wanted to take my new bike for a spin. We had the first annual pizza bake-off yesterday and it was so much fun. But, I had so much pizza that I jsut had to do something active today.
So, I loaded the bike into my car and started driving along [...]
Bike :)

Oh. Yes.
Just came back from a weekend in Mammoth. We had a 3 day weekend here in the states so I figured, why not get some skiing in this weekend. That was exactly what we did.
We got a condo really close to the lift together with Charles, Caroline and Magnus. Charles and Caroline made took Friday [...]
South Korea
I got invited to speak at a conference in South Korea called ICON. International Content Creator’s Conference (doesn’t that spell ICCC?? I guess ICON sounds better ;) ).
Anyway, I accepted the invitation and now I am here in South Korea. I have never been here before. I just gave my lecture/speak and it went well. [...]
