I have been consulting at Global Gaming for the past couple of months helping with product development, operations and technology. Very cool concepts allowing people to manage their gamer life are in the works.

On a different note, it looks like ManiaTV will be sold or will cease to exist. Very strange since an article less than a month ago put ManiaTV in better light. Looks like the ManiaTV brass was exaggerating.. a lot. Well at least there is always Mafia Wars.

If this works, you should see an Obey sticker pasted on a traffic light. Not sure what you'll see if it does not work. Now what's the difference between blogging and twittering?

Went on a great hike with a group of friends yesterday at Big Santa Anita Canyon. We got there at around 11:30am and didn't get back until 5:30pm. The scenery was beautiful. Most of the hike was in the shade, so we didn't feel the heat while hiking in the middle of the day. The Sturtevant Falls (about 50ft high; pic above) is about 1.5 miles into the hike. Most the group took a dip in the cold pool below.

The highlight of the trip was when we tried to get by a swarm of bees on our trail on our way back from Mt. Zion. Mytch went first and said everything was cool. Then I went. Everything not cool. I had bees swarming in my hair and in my ear. While this is going on, Mytch realizes he has a few friends hanging out in his hair. So I run down the trail yelling at Mytch that the bees are on me. As I am coming towards Mytch, he starts doing the bees are me dance. I fall to the ground, thinking they are off me. I was wrong. I continue to run at Mytch, yelling that the bees are still on me. Mytch now begins to run away from me since I am running at him with my bee friends in tow. I stop where he was standing. I check my hair and my surroundings. No bees. The rest of the gang gets through without incident.

Oscars will suck. The weather is bad in LA, the writers did not have enough time to come up with intesting material, and the best movies up for nomination are forgettable (perhaps for the exception of No Country..). There won't even be any hot women to look at on the Red Carpet because they are either pregnant or just had a baby. Waste of TV time.

Back living in LA. Hanging out with Rob (my new roomie) and Sarah in her empty apartment. Drinking. Life is good.

After a two year stint in Denver, I will be moving back to Los Angeles. It's going to be good for the soul, as I lived a very balanced life when I was there. Can't wait to get back to my old habits for a healthier me. W00t!
