GM

Wow. I predeict that Kirk Kerkorian is planning to increase his stake in GM even further in future months, and that he’ll identify allies on the board and among other large shareholders in a bid to shop the automaker around and sell it.
GM is such a waste case. I will totally not regret its passing. [...]

Thanks, Sharon!

Anyone in Charlotte who ever visits the Midwood branch of the USPS, please be extra nice to Sharon, the extremely helpful woman who took the time to help David and I set up our address change via phone over the past few weeks. She was nice enough to overlook some of the bureaucratic obstacles and [...]

Growed Up GoTh

Ganked from kitashla:
“Grown Up Goths don’t worry about whether they still fit the label anymore. They know they identify best with that subculture and that if they decide to prance around in pink from time to time, it’s not going to make them any less Goth.”
I’ve sometimes been told that since I don’t go to the [...]

Somewhere Else

An interesting exchange recently regarding the “love it or leave it” philosophy. Coincidentally, the Chronicle also published a rather candid reflection on San Francisco today as well… I knew David and I weren’t the only ones who have recognized the change in malls from one-size-fits-all shopping centres to specialized boutique villiages… Oh, I mean the change in cities from one-size-fits-all living and working [...]

Some Missives for a Chilly, Foggy Friday Morning…

I sure will miss the weather here…

I sure won’t miss anything else here…
a quote from The Economist: “Tony Blair, for all his flaws, remains the best centre-right option there is” (italics mine).

I’m working on two new essays, which maybe I’ll complete on the train this weekend… One involves the blathering spew of an annoying fag who fancies himself an urban [...]

Moving Day is Nigh

The following are tentative stops on our cross-country trek to our spiffy new home in Charlotte. I would like suggestions for places to see and people to meet, and most importantly, good food stops - from dives to fine dining.
 

Los Angeles
Phoenix
El Paso
Austin
New Orleans
Birmingham

The actual itinerary is changeable, but I’ll post it as it materializes, in [...]

Let’s Talk Geek-to-Geek Here

What’s the deal with “Star Wars”? I just don’t get it. These are the following reasons I could see it being enjoyable:

You took part in the making/marketing/financing of it
You are a graphic artist or computer animator
You are a costume designer
You slept with someone or married someone who is one of the above

If one of these [...]

Breaking Up is Hard to Do

San Francisco is sort of like a really cute guy you’re trying to pick up at a bar, only to find out he’s a total tease. After a while you just realize maybe he’s so conceited he just wants to see how hard you’ll work to get him in bed. Ultimately, he may be cute, [...]
