| In which I check my email... |

Slate (which I used to abhor) has a whole special on procrastination. My workplace, which has had several presentations on Getting Things Done, which seems to be built on the industry of lazy people, has only helped me somewhat. It's not that I'm lazy, I'm quite an industrious person, but email brings a special burden because I can't possibly hope to answer it all. And replies only beget more replies! I realized today it is simply that I enjoying putting more energy into other things than email. If I could afford a Blackberry, I could be more productive on my daily 2 hour bus ride, but ah well...
Enough rambling, here's what's new:
William McKeen, author of a previous book on HST, has a new book out called Outlaw Journalist which will be out June 24 according to Amazon.
Josh snapped a couple pics of a cool mural back in April. Wonder if it's still up...(thanks Josh!)
I was driving around town yesterday and spotted this...its pretty bad ass.
The building its on is under construction, and is some type of restraunt titled "Cherch". Its the only visable thing having to do with HST....and really makes very little since with its surroundings.
So heres some pics, it can be found in Downtown Fullerton, CA on the corner of Commonwealth and Harbor.

I thought I would get around to the tattoos this weekend, but polishing duties called. Check out the new happy gonzo fans.
It's been about four or five months now since I lost my ten years worth of Hotmail, so I was really pleased to hear from an old friend who found this really cool pic! For a minute I thought it was recent, but it's actually from 1983. Bill Watterson, of Calvin and Hobbes fame, illustrated the cover of a magazine called Target featuring a story about Ralph Steadman. This mag seems to have ceased publication in 1987 according to a little Googling. Anyhow, here's the cover. And in case you want to save your Hotmail, check out Hotmail Popper. I had dl'd it, but never got around to installing it :\ |

After being sequestered all night on the fourth floor, it was startling to get off the elevator and find a Halloween party in full swing at the art college. I even passed an HST on my way out, but I was so pooped I didn't realize it until I got to the car.
Be sure to send any Halloween costume pix to fun@gonzo.org. I have a lot to post, which I hope to get around to on Sunday...or if you've posted them somewhere on the web, leave a link here! |
