Santa Monica- Out To Launch

Alpha Testing Our New On Demand Luxe Valet Parking Ap Dumb and Dumber-We are smiling on our Razor Kick Scooters. ..as we are about to get run over by a Mack Truck. This is not your everyday on-demand job; a Luxe agent is a Valet, Rideshare and Taskrabbit all in one. We change the way people park by collecting, storing and returning vehicles for customers NYT Blog : When I describe it to you it will sound crazy, bourgeois and inefficient, and your first instinct will be to dismiss it. Don’t. Luxe works amazingly well, and as it and other similar services expand nationally — Luxe is starting up in Los Angeles this week — they could radically alter how large cities work. Luxe is an on-demand valet parking service. When you need to drive somewhere where parking  is tough, like pretty much any part of San Francisco, open up the app and tell it where you’ll be going. Then start driving. When you get to your destination, a valet will be waiting for you on the side of the road. He’s wearin...

Venice Beach- Here Come The Bikes

Today In Venice Beach- The Epicenter of Narcissism  A Bike And A Prayer  The bicycle was the GR8est incident of the nineteenth century; the most influential piece of product design ever and the most civilized conveyance around. It is not brain surgery, it is rocket science---the advantages of modern self-powered traffic are obvious, and ignored. Screw BP (British Polluters), .This is my Carbon Offset I am my own engine, converting calories into gas, my bike gets the equivalent of three thousand miles per gallon...and no parking problems.  Why waste your life in friction (cars) when it could be turned into momentum. (Bikes). Burning Carbohydrates instead of Hydrocarbons today.  As long as I am riding a bike, I know I am the luckiest guy in the world. Don.'t buy upgrades, ride up grades! SUVLUV is so stone age, so pre September 11th.  One seldom exchanges anything but "the finger" or names of insurance companies with another driver. Cars inhibits human connec...

The Georgraphy of Bliss

When you revisit the past, make sure you come back in time   “You should  write a book”  I rather  shoot a movie, with Sequels.  A  Show rather than Tell-All. How can I compose a story big enough, deep enough and broad enough to encompass the reality of my l if e? When I’m at sea, immersed in action, I am the protagonist, You can't create experiences like this, you undergo them. The power of narrative comes forth  when I am engaged in the telling.(or selling) of these accounts. Jumeriah Beach Don't Stop Believin'  There are 3 versions, First, the edited “inside version”,  Secondly, The story I tell the world, and Thirdly, my created self- or RL Real Life (story). Depending on my audience, my motive, or my mood at any given time. . . The countless possible versions of (my story) can vary widely. Bucket Listed “Whoever authors your story authorizes your actions.”  Enter ...

10/14 It took 4 hours to climb to the top of Fuji San and 14 hours to defend. Going downhill takes longer! 08/91 The opening track on Into The Great Wide Open, the eighth studio album by Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, 'Learning To Fly'  goes like this... Well, I started out down a dirty road / Started out all alone / And the sun went down as I crossed the hill / And the town lit up, the world got still / I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings / Coming down is the hardest thing. This song is about achieving a huge goal. The learning to fly without wings means learning to do something you\'ve never done before and you\'re not sure if you\'re even prepared to do It reminds me of traveling around the world 7 times!--My Escape TO my Reality:"Coming down is the hardest thing". I got my pilots license-Now what, Land? I am sure I will sail again....because... You know, addiction isn't the problem - it's the solution-  When all you care abou...
