Hey all. Sorry for lack of updates. After the holidays, work has been really kicking my ass as well as a few other projects. I’ll try to get something up by the weekend tho. One of my new years resolutions was to update this site more..that lasted all of 0 days.
Yeah it’s been awhile. Things have been super hectic right now for me between the holidays, travel, work, and a couple of new projects. I’ll post up sometime this week (hopefully) with updates on all the goings on.
First half of November has been pretty rough. Lost a close family member to cancer, and Current TV laid off a ton of people (I dodged the bullet this time). I’ll eventually write about both things (once I get a slice of free time) but in the meantime, here’s a video I stumbled across on the interwebs and it made me laugh out loud (seriously). I thought I’d share it with you. It’s my new goto “pick me up” video.
So I know I’ve been completely slacking on this site lately. Next week I finally move out of my shithole apt in Koreatown and move out to the north western side ofMar Vista.
I’m looking forward to the move, but this week will be spent packing and boxing shit (again). Every 2 years for the past 10 years I’ve moved. Hopefully I’ll keep this place longer than that so I can finally accumulate some stuff.
I’ll try to scrounge up some pics of the place to post here as well.
Sorry for the many delays. Lots has happened in the past couple of weeks. I’m writing it all up now and will be posting it in the next day or so. Sorry!
There has been a lot going on since I last updated. Lots of big stuff that I really don’t have the time to post about now, but starting next week (Mon 6/29), there will be a LOT of stuff up here.
Healthcare CEOs Shoot Themselves in the Foot
Even if you pay your premiums for years, once you get dangerously ill, the bastards at private health care companies will do their best to find a way to cancel your insurance.
Rep. John Dingell (D-Mich.) said that a public insurance plan should be a part of any overhaul because it would force private companies to treat consumers fairly or risk losing them. “This is precisely why we need a public option,” Dingell said.
I would never ever kill anyone in my whole life, but if someone was to knock off these CEOs, I’d understand.
As some of you know, I’m 1/2 Iranian. I was raised Iranian. I grew up Iranian. 98% of the family that I know and interact with on a regular basis are Iranian. Genetically I’m 1/2, but for all intents and purposes, I view myself as an Iranian (American).
Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past few days, you’ll know of the sham election in Iran. The government has killed internet and text message communications, shut down news stations, and put dissenters on “house arrest”. They are trying to quell the will of the people. In this age of the Internet and vast communication, there will always be a way for people to communicate.
As it’s been used in the past, Iranians have harnessed Twitter as a means of communication. I’ve stumbled across a Twitter Grid that is streaming information as fast as it comes in real time from people IN IRAN. If you’re Iranian, or if you just want to know what is really happening, as it’s happening, from people who are there, follow the link now.
AT&T for the win once again. What a SWEET provider. I’m glad to pay the $100.00/mo.
I know I’ve been slacking hard on the updates. Sorry. Just been really busy. Looking for work, beefing up my portfolio etc. This whole recession sucks. I haven’t had a real solid job since the end of January and funds are starting to get a bit tight. Hopefully something will give here and I’ll be back in the black again.
Anyways, I’ll be updating with my FL trip post as soon as I get the pictures from V and Xtina. Stay tuned.
