It gets better every time I get it. This time it came with two eggs on top. Was it always that way?

Its not just because you can't change the battery or upload files in the browser. Its way more selfish than that. I hate it because now all of the regular folk are going to be on LTE and I am going to have to share the amazing bandwidth I have had for the past few months. Its just like how 3g was awesome till the iPhone 3g came out.

So today I receive a phone call from a private number and a man claiming to be Peter Singer. At first I had no idea who that was. He started out saying, you might not know who I am but you have written about me. Then he goes into this story about how I have ruined his reputation by writing about his business scams in 2005 and how he was going to sue me for being libelous. It's not libel if its true, and I was just reporting the facts. Then he asked me as a nice person, could he appeal to me to just take it down. I was starting to consider when at the end of the message he casually mentions that he knew I worked at Roswell and that he knows some doctors there. I immediately responded that I did not respond to threats and hung up.

While he was on the phone with me I thought, maybe its just some guy who was haunted by his unsavory past, I mean anyone can change. So I immediately went to google where I found this very recent post that ties into his previous dealings with ebay. Seems like nothing changes. Unfortunately, the full message has been taken down

I was able to get snippets out of the google description cache by gaming the search.


Apparently they are bankrupt and owned by Peter Singer

Here is the backstory. In the mid 2000s a bunch of random strangers signed up for estrip journals to talk about how they were scammed by him. According to their first hand experiences, each of them had a situation where they paid for something and felt ripped off, some of them even won against him (his businesses which kept changing over time) in court.

At some point enough people had gotten together enough evidence that they got a channel 4 news story on call for action and thats when I wrote about it, congratulating them on bringing it to public attention through social media when social media was still in its infancy. There was even a Buffalo News article about his ebay business that used to be on Bidwell.

After looking into it, I wasn't saying anything libelous, I and some others were just reporting on what was happening in the news and other people were writing about their first hand experiences with him. At that point I had even invited him to defend himself online.

I went on another throw out rampage yesterday. I got rid of so much stuff. I am really not a horder but I held onto Nonna's mirror way past its usefulness. It had smashed so many times. The one side just gave out and lost the glass but I always felt bad throwing it out as it was a reminder of her. I decided that I needed to just let go, so I took some pictures of it and said goodbye. In a way its sad because I would see it each morning in the bathroom and think about her. Maybe I should just print the photo and hang it up in there.

He is so filthy from digging in mud. I think he likes it for the humidity at night but its got to suck being that dirty and gritty afterwards. His face was so covered in dry caked on mud.

I found some clothes at H&M. Every time I think its a bad idea and I still come back for some reason. Hopefully I can at least wear these clothes once unlike the last batch where I foolishly assumed all colors of the same exact design and size by tag, fit the same

Kostas still remains one of the few places where I know I can get octopus. I think its probably my favorite food. Does anyone know of any other restaurants?

B is gone and Basra has to dig his own holes. Who knew he could dig like this? I mean he dug a small tunnel in 2006 but this is full on brick moving and mountain building. He seriously must be bored or angry now that he can't rape all day.

We headed up to silo city last night for the art shows. The art was really good, from photography to installation. They had multiple grain silos open with exhibits in each silo, as well as, music in the middle of the open area between them.

We escaped into the darkness as for a bit and found a silo which had the bottom of the funnel part sawed or rusted off. We put our heads up inside and the sound was incredible. A giant confined space, echo chamber, stories high and probably 40 ft in diameter. With @terry and @enknot singing it was so awesome. Even clapping was awesome.

The only bad part was all of the rust in the air made my eyes and lungs hurt. Especially the first time we were in there and @terry thought it was funny to be smashing on the metal funnel. Every time he did it prices of rust fell from the ceiling.

I had @terry capture the sound on my phone


All in all it was a great time. I wish I could have taken more pics but it was too dark or I was having too much fun most of the time.

I like it all, but lets start with my favorite part.

For dessert we had a ginger creme brule.



They ran out of the prawns @paul #56714 so for dinner, I switched to the beef udon bowl. It was amazing. I also tried the Brussel sprouts on the recommendation of my friend Julie. They were so perfect. I never had brussel sprouts cut up like that before. They were divided up into a plate of perfectly cooked individual leaves.







I was also amazed at the variety of supplies in the bathroom, but why a nail clipper?



My mustache is getting out of control.
