I have developed an intense loathing of reading or watching journalists cover the stock market.‚ Invariably, whether the stock market goes up, down or stays the same, journalists feel the need to attribute it to some obvious factor.‚ For instance, today the NYTimes.com (usually a good newspaper) had a front page article that said, “On Wall Street, financial markets initially seized on the fact that monthly job losses had not increased in February, and stocks rose in early trading.‚ … read more “Stock Market Reporting Completely Garbage”
Last night, I had my brother Jordan and his wife Meghan over to my studio apartment in Seattle for dinner.‚ Since it is still rather wintry and cold outside, I made up a pretty hearty meal.‚ Our appetizer was Italian crackers with fresh goat cheese and olive & pepper bruschetta on top.‚ The main course was italian chicken sausage with red peppers, pretty rich mashed potato casserole and sauteed brussell sprouts (a million times better than boiled brussel sprouts).‚ … read more “Dinner with Brother Jordan & Sister-in-Law Meghan”

Due to the stupidity of political and business leaders in America, we are facing a depression.‚ Since I was a junior in high school in 2001, I have been telling everyone who would listen that the United States was going to tumble very hard if many policies weren’t changed.‚ Our government stuck its fingers into regulation and mucked up the stock market, housing market, job market and corporate governance.‚ … read more “American Economy Getting Hammered: What Should You Do?”
Plato, one of his law school buddies and I went and watched the Seattle Opera put on Bluebeard’s Castle and Erwartung last night.‚ It was my first time going to the opera and I really enjoyed it.‚ Beautiful voices, great orchestra and fun plots.‚ I liked Bluebeard’s Castle more, but I think Plato & his buddy liked Erwartung better.‚ … read more “Review of Seattle Opera’s Bluebeard’s Castle & Erwartung”
Plato and a couple of friends and I are going to watch Robert LePage’s BlueBeard’s Castle and Erwartung this evening as presented by the Seattle Opera at McCaw Hall in Seattle Center. Afterwards, we probably will be headed to a hippy party to watch a far less classy funk band lol.
