Until further notice, I’ll be at the club.
After several conversations, some of my Asian friends have reminded me of what the most essential garden instruments are. They told me that I needed some steel. So, just one quick story before I get out of here. My father actually came to visit me one time in Belarus. Oh, we made a big deal… Continue reading

Feng shui
I can’t tell the difference between whether I am the boss or the builder. Or maybe I’m just the bitchy homeowner who can’t stop redecorating even while the process of building is underway. Okay, it’s an opportunity to make money and at this level of wealth, what’s a few extra $100,000 either way. It’s a… Continue reading

Dustin Hoffman
Why weren’t you perseverant in getting to me 10 years ago? I suppose I was doing other things. But if it was important, why didn’t you do everything you could possibly think of to make it happen? We sent a few letters. To who? To you and to Michelle Rodriguez. We were pretty much dead… Continue reading

A fight for resources
My thumb hurts this morning. I got into a fight yesterday. I honestly thought that my days of getting into fights were long ago. And just like the old days, I was not looking to involve myself in a tussle. I just wanted a flower petal for a snack. Okay, so this may require some… Continue reading

Schmoozing with Old Al
Don’t even ask me where I get these opportunities but I got a yes to this conversation from Mr Al himself. I guess it’s a pleasure to be here, what, G I’m supposed to call you? G is fine. It’s not really that often that I get to hang out with a celebrity of your… Continue reading

Two hotties
Okay, so fair is fair. I seem to have acquired some privilege here since joining the press corps. A regular place to live, stipend enough and for some reason, I have the luck, privilege and honor of the company of two hotties. Hi Yeah, okay. Hi. Nice. But as of the moment we are in… Continue reading

Plan baseball instead of war…
Technically, this is the farm report but I’m just enjoying the song of playing baseball instead of killing each other. I can’t help but think that somehow baseball is the answer. I guess everything starts with the fact that Lefty is starting to put in days for me. I didn’t think he was ever going… Continue reading
