Then I got a page over the news pager with the following:

*Unusual Incident*
Cell phone caller stated he was stuck in a hole . After 20 mins of searching he was found by the fire department. The victim has now been removed from the hole with a possible broken hip.

Get Away

Vacations are awesome.
What I think dampens that fact is that inevitably, you need to come home.
I'm so glad I had the opportunity to travel during my college years, i saw a lot and met people who will be in my life for many years to come.
You don't meet people like this every day.

Missing L.A.

L.A.

Ive been to a lot of cities over the last few years.

Ive looked into their people, places, and the things that make them notable.

But L.A. is different, with a quality i can't get my finger on...its a feel like I can't describe.

Levels, there are lots of levels to this city.

When one can't build out, build up!

The hills are filled with little square houses and bright lights.

The city it like New York, it never sleeps.

There is no real defined center of the city either, it always feels like you are driving around someone's neighborhood.

The weather is beautiful...in the 60s, clear and with a slight breeze.

Today we are going to Disneyland...it doesnt get better than this.

It Lives.

Today the cast came off.

I can't even express to you how happy that makes me.

Or maybe...I can...



yeah...happy.
