how to fit into the South Bay

Sunday, August 19th, 2007

Last weekend I attended the AVP Crocs Manhattan Beach Open. I’m not particularly sure why, I could say that I wanted to practice my sports photography skills (and I did) or I just needed to explore a different area (very true) or an excuse for laying on the beach all day seemed appealing (thanks for […]

treo tribulations

Dear Treo:
I hate you. I hate that I had to get a new one of you which arrive 3 weeks ago and I have had to do a “hard reset” a.k.a. complete wipeout of all data THREE TIMES NOW because you freeze up.
First it gets in this endless loop of resetting for no reason, usually […]

Damnit Dodgers. This was a bad day to go into extra innings given the 5 hours Viva Los Dodgers festival which preceded the game. This meant 5 hour festival + 1 hour to settle into the seats + 5 hour and 6 minute game = 11 hours and 6 minutes punctuated by the sheer misery […]

why I could never talk to this woman

First off, one should know better than to get their hair “frosted.” There are a few things that are okay to be frosted: windows, cupcakes and flakes. Hair is not included in this list and for obvious reasons. Besides that it looks like crap, people will spent 10 minutes looking at your head thinking “is […]

I went to my introductory session with Andy Petranek one morning while taking a “sick day” at work. I had been searching for a gym that taught Crossfit, a special brand of fitness recommended to me by a friend. I e-mailed Andy to ask about the class schedule, and next thing I knew I was […]

I’m going to write this off as the male version of bearing cleavage. Or something.

a whole lotta pussy

One has to wonder what exactly happened to drive this person to devote such a large portion of his skin to this tiger. Perhaps the tiger saved his life while he was on a safari in Africa. Or maybe he is actually the offspring of a tiger father and a human mother and this is a […]

starting off on the wrong foot

I went to the AVP Beach Volleyball Open this weekend. The man behind me eyed my Dodger hat and said “are you lost? Were you looking for Dodger Stadium?”
“No,” I said.
“Some Dodger fan. You’re here watching volleyball instead!” he snickers to his friends. *Nudge nudge aren’t I funny*
“They’re in St. Louis.”
“Huh?”
“They’re on the road.”
“I don’t […]

prostate prostitute

I generally try to keep photos of myself to a minimum, so hopefully this self portrait here is rare enough to attract some attention.
I am participating in a nationwide fundraiser to fight the good fight against prostate cancer. My grandfather was diagnosed with prostate cancer 10 years ago and fought a hard battle to […]
