And that was the plan. But I got distracted and ended up researching U.S. small value stocks. And, while I'd like to…
I'm considering doing something I haven't done in ages: watch a show. Despite the foreboding prospect of making a 10, maybe 13 episode commitment, I think I might do it. The following 10 shows have landed on my potential-viewing radar. Please talk me into OR out of watching any of the following... EUPHORIA MOON KNIGHT…
With our friends Yael and Tanavi in town, Akemi and I joined Dr. Blackjack for a couple of meals. First, lunch at Shook - Stuffed smoked dates, mushroom kibbeh, wild mushroom couscous. Not pictured: the best hummus in town. Then, dinner at Antler - The charcuterie board (the boar belly was sublime). The Elk Tartare.…
Hoowee! Received an email from my agent last night informing me that he was putting me up for a new genre show and requested a writing sample for a "sci-fi show that tends towards horror". The series is an adaptation of novel - which I happened to have read, so I knew the perfect sample…
Work has eaten into my once torrid reading pace, but I did read two books last week... The School for Good Mothers by Jessamine Chan (January 4, 2022 release) Frida Liu is struggling. She doesn’t have a career worthy of her Chinese immigrant parents’ sacrifices. What’s worse is she can’t persuade her husband, Gust, to…

Today, Akemi's and I visited J-Town, aka Japan-Town, aka the land of soy milk and honey-matcha mochi. It's located about 90 minutes from our place by public transportation, but I accompanied Akemi because that's what husband's do - especially after being guilted for not being more enthusiastic about a rare couples excursion. So, we walked…
I'm about to lapse into a fried chicken coma following a wondrous lunch at BB.Q Chicken - a Korean franchise featured in the K-Drama Crash Landing On You about a soldier from South Korean who, as a result of a paragliding accident, ends up north of the DMZ where she falls in love with a…

How delightful. My tweeted response to this cretinous article made the Daily Mail... Eat lentils and let your pets die of cancer! Bloomberg is slammed for out-of-touch op-ed lecturing Americans earning less than $300,000 on how to beat inflation Delightful. I'm sort of famous now. Seeing more and more of these asinine takes lately. If…
Had dinner with an old friend last night (dim sum, crispy chicken in truffle sauce, and spicy fried pork chops). We had a great chat about our industry, the good old days, and, of course, the potential good new days that lie ahead. Feeling optimistic on several fronts. And on a totally related note, I…
Hoowee. Seeing a lot of these buffoonish articles lately... His five asinine points: 5 - It's better for the environment! This, of course, based on his assumption that, at some point, demand destruction occurs which leads individuals to significantly reduce their use of oil and gas. So thank goodness for high prices! Like most pie-in-the-sky…
