It’s almost Canada Day and what better way to celebrate than by cheering on the Canadian Team on their first trip to the knockout stage of the World Cup? Oh and — spoiler alert! — they won!

After more than a few years, had the pleasure of lunching with Bruce Gram, my Grade 7–9 English teacher. More than anyone else, Bruce instilled in me a love of writing, speaking, and creativity.

Caught my first Blue Jays game since last year’s World Series run. Despite their injuries, the Jays took two of three. Here’s Lenyn Sosa’s go-ahead double scoring Ernie Clement and Vladimir Guerrero!

It’s the anniversary of brain surgery and I haven’t gone scuba diving… but seeing this DAN van, I think I should discuss it with experts.

Thanks for the love and support over the past year. 🧠🙏🏼🤿

Having attended Mardi Gras in New Orleans several times, I decided to see how Venice Beach celebrates Fat Tuesday. Not quite as grand… but just as joyous!

Just got back the final Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, early this morning, and got up a few hours later to play a cabbie in an indie film. The independent spirit lives on!

A bittersweet visit to the last Sundance Film Festival in Park City, full of testimonials to the city that has played host for decades and to visionary festival founder Robert Redford.

This weekend, Combat Radio hosted its Breakfast with Santa where we fed several hundred homeless kids and their families. Once again, I had the privilege of getting Santa to his sleigh as we strove to happiness to all.

‘Bladed over to Frank Gehry’s Norton House with its “lifeguard platform” on Venice Beach and reflected on the legacy of this towering expat Torontonian Angeleno on the world in which his architecture shone.

In a year that began with brain surgery, I am so thankful for the love, support, and compassion from friends, family, acquaintances, strangers, and my care team at Cedars–Sinai.

Happy American Thanksgiving!

Half a year post–brain surgery, I can fly. I used my freedom to head to T.O. to fête my birthday with family and friends. Back in California, I married my old roomie.

Just read a fascinating speculative fiction by E.J. Kavounas in @PenumbricMag. A remarkable piece that poses questions about the implications of the evolution of technologies that already permeate our lives and that are certain to become more prevalent.

Just caught the red eye to Toronto for the last Loonie Dogs Night of the year! Makes you appreciate athletes like Joey Chestnut and Kobayashi even more! And, yes, the Jays won!

In preparation for Labor Day, I labored in the gym every day of August. Possibly a bit much for a guy recovering from a craniotomy… but it feels good to be working out again.

It’s been half a year since my craniotomy and I marked the moment with the 61ˢᵗ edition of CicLAvia where streets are closed to cars and opened to people. The course ran 6¾ miles between Culver City and Venice.
