The first night back I stood overlooking the Chesapeake Bay, felt the humidity and smelt the salty air and I instantly remembered why this is always going to be home for me. Alas… I’ll be heading back out to California soon so I can pick up the car and drive it to Colorado. It’s gonna stay in Colorado until we finish the bike trip.</p>http://ongiantshoulders.tumblr.com/post/149337978http://ongiantshoulders.tumblr.com/post/149337978Sun, 26 Jul 2009 02:59:31 -0400<img src="http://23.media.tumblr.com/AimzdcL6eq6ot80adnRAYJ7Bo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>A marvelously stereotypical hipster in San Fran</p>http://ongiantshoulders.tumblr.com/post/146323343http://ongiantshoulders.tumblr.com/post/146323343Tue, 21 Jul 2009 17:33:35 -0400<img src="http://11.media.tumblr.com/AimzdcL6eq2ost0btAWmdTATo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Something amazing is coming to the iPhone soon!</p>http://ongiantshoulders.tumblr.com/post/144451844http://ongiantshoulders.tumblr.com/post/144451844Sat, 18 Jul 2009 22:22:09 -0400<object width="400" height="336"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9_XPANc9aIc&rel=0&egm=0&showinfo=0&fs=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9_XPANc9aIc&rel=0&egm=0&showinfo=0&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="336" allowFullScreen="true" wmode="transparent"></embed></object><br/><br/><p>Smooth talking oil company man.</p>http://ongiantshoulders.tumblr.com/post/142971187http://ongiantshoulders.tumblr.com/post/142971187Thu, 16 Jul 2009 15:27:50 -0400<img src="http://11.media.tumblr.com/AimzdcL6epwszf07sZIeiWEXo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Ladys poker game in China Town.

Turns out Daniel is a prophet and we talked at length about the upcoming destruction of LA and San Fran by rains of sulphur. I’m not poking fun at him and I really discussed his theological beliefs with him to learn more about it. He revealed (told) me that the two cities will be destroyed when he leaves for Israel, sometime maybe in September. I recorded the whole talk, with his permission, using my phone. I’ll post some audio later.</p>http://ongiantshoulders.tumblr.com/post/134448034http://ongiantshoulders.tumblr.com/post/134448034Thu, 02 Jul 2009 20:16:16 -0400<img src="http://21.media.tumblr.com/AimzdcL6epfot4ubNe5lbu78o1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I’m using Twiddler to find some thing to entertain me around the city.

I am still in San Francisco. This weekend is a gay pride weekend so there are lots of crazy things going on like parades and festivals. Last night I met up with Aaron, a friend from Spain, and we went out to a bar in Mission. I met a burlesque dancer named Champagne Sparkles and then watched Aaron talk to a bearded lady. He asked to touch her beard and she let him. Oh, the things I see in this city.</p>http://ongiantshoulders.tumblr.com/post/131458214http://ongiantshoulders.tumblr.com/post/131458214Sat, 27 Jun 2009 22:08:10 -0400<img src="http://13.media.tumblr.com/AimzdcL6ep5l64mvJPd04sLBo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I’m checking out the computer history museum today in Mountain View.
