Brought it from home and cooked it in the small oven we got here.

Got it cooked medium in a toaster oven somehow!

Love these shoes… I just don’t think I’m cool enough to wear them.

I was just keeping up with my local house listings as I do everyday, so that I can keep a eye on the housing market – old man homeowner stuff. If you’re interested in doing the same, I defined house listing criteria on redfin.com, and they e-mail me any new listings and updates on recent sales.

I came across this quaint little house….

Definitely looks like an older white couple lives here…

A glimpse behind the house piqued my interest. What’s that peaking out of that garage?

And then I found the Holy Grail of house modifications! As Nadine said “Oh, snap!”

Okay full on “garage” with a lift, shop tools, TV, and according to the listing, a bathroom.  This is what I need.  Plus maybe a bar and a hammock.

Corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, rye, horseradish sauce, beer.

Sometimes I’m completely overwhelmed with jealousy… this is one of those moments.  I don’t know how they got permission to drift Mulholland Drive, but they did and it’s amazing.  I’ve always wanted to take my red car up into the mountains with stickers and all and just wreak havoc, but it will probably never happen.  I’ll add that one to my bucket list.  I can see it now – “Dying 80 year old man arrested for drifting his classic Nissan in the Glendora mountains.”

I just randomly found this picture of me on a french website.  I guess it’s somehow related to Mulsanne… I remember befriending an older French guy with Mulsanne on his business card.  I think that same business is somehow involved with a local drift team in Southern California.

Anyway, the picture is of me driving the KAAZ car at Irwindale in front of the D1 judges.   Funny – I can’t even remember what event this is!  The combination of me not remembering plus the picture shows barely any smoke tells me that I probably didn’t do very well.  But it’s still nice to see new pictures from the past!
