No place like home

I was home in Vienna VA visiting my parents, which is a suburb of Washington DC where I grew up, but I am happy to be home in Los Angeles where I have lived for more then 15 years.
There's nothing like being on Hollywood Blvd where all the "lookalikes," and homeless hang out and at times get arrested for street performing without a license/ drug dealing. If I only knew what Spiderman's spidey-senses were telling him in this situation.

Back in Los Angeles

Im back in Los Angeles after a long trip, its good to be home and out of the humidity of the east coast. Im not positive about this but I think I caught a disease on the #3 train in Brooklyn in my eye. Its all bloodshot and I didn't smoke weed. This picture is not my eye, and my eye is much better now, however this is the closest picture I could find to describe my condition.

In NYC

Arrived in NYC this week from Montreal. I feel like the two cities are very different in that one is in America and the other is is France. Plus the crowds are different.

Montreal....

I arrived in Montreal today from Toronto. So far the Canadians have been customarily friendly and hospitable as I expected. Even though this is a commonwealth country and they speak French I have not felt judged or looked down upon. That could be because my respect for Celine Dion, Shania Twain, and Brian Adams is so transparent. I have secretly always wanted to be a Canadian recording artist. If everything goes well here and my agents do there job I will be well on my way to fulfilling my dreams. If that doesn't happen I will pursue my back-up plan, Governor General of Canada.

Sports

Its been crazy in the world of sports lately. Since the closing ceremonies of the winter olympics I have been nearly addicted to all sports. First it was NHL hockey, then NBA playoffs, baseball of course, which all led to the anticipated World Cup. Outside of sports I have not much to talk about unless it relates to global political social and domestic issues. -ak

Prince of Persia for Gaza?

With all that's happened in Gaza lately you can't help but blame the Persians. Its all there fault that the Israelis are so defensive. If they would stop arming Hammas and making peaceful nuclear energy, and acknowledge Israels right to exist maybe we could get somewhere. My only hope is that the Prince of Persia can use the sands or the dagger of time to bring us together.
The Sands have the power to infect and turn all forms of life into dangerous monsters, while the Dagger of Time has the power to slow down, stop and even reverse time. It totally sounds like the peace process.
