Seattle Traffic Worse than LA

Joel — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 00:53:27 +0000

As a fresh LA transplant, I have discovered Seattles traffic is much worse than the traffic in LA. Los Angeles is just a much larger city so it still takes longer to get somewhere. But to travel 2 miles through Seattle takes two or three times as long as travelling 2 miles in LA does.

Check out the crazy video below of a kite surfer jumping a pier. Looks incredibly dangerous, but kind of makes me want to take up the sport. Look how high he goes!

Las Vegas for New Years Eve!

Joel — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 01:29:26 +0000

A large group of my friends and I are going to Las Vegas for New Years Eve. We will be staying at the Sahara on December 31st and January 1st. Las Vegas is a somewhat creepy city- basically a giant garish bar- but that is exactly why it will be a super fun place to be on New Years Eve.

Currently, the group includes Trent, levi, levis brother, Kenny, and I. Others (nick, brian, Kenny, JJ) are thinking of joining us.

Blindside Book Review

Joel — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 01:16:43 +0000

I read the book Blindside by Michael Lewis on the plane ride from Los Angeles to Seattle today. Blindside is the real life tale of Michael Oher coming up out of poverty in Memphis to become a big time NFL left tackle. I thought the book was fairly well-written and whipped through it quickly. The author Michael Lewis was too close to his subject matter though and he tried to cram his worldview down the readers necks. He believes that success is mostly due to a persons circumstances and only partly due to themselves. Lewis’s theory is interesting and many prominent people like Malcolm Gladwell share it. I think it is mostly true, but they put too much emphasis on nurture instead of nature. I got the feeling reading the book that the author left out some important points on Michael Oher, especially considering that Oher himself disagrees with Michael Lewis.

Overall, the book is a nice easy read with some substance. I would give it a 6/10.

Hungry

Joel — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 01:08:41 +0000

I have had nothing to eat today since this morning. Ravenous doesn’t even begin to describe my appetite. The people walking around me look like tasty lumps of meat. Visions of baby tartare, ab jerky and human filet mignon are starting to appear to me. I am about to turn tribal.

At least they have food in prison.

In Seattle Now

Joel — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 01:01:53 +0000

For those who are interested, I am now in Seattle and will be here for the next six weeks. I don’t like long distance relationships, so I’ll be visiting every other month until the girlfriend moves to LA or we decide it doesn’t work. I’ll be staying with Tara in the Central District. If you want to kick it, call/email/text me or leave a comment here.
