* My roommate from coaching soccer at the Santa Clara University camps is blogging his SECOND tour in Iraq. He was called up from the reserves and is back overseas. He's sarcastically hilarious but could use the encouragement of knowing people here care about what's going on there.
His blog is aptly titled "never as funny the second time..."
* Verizon didn't work in the whole state of Kentucky. A quarter mile after we saw the sign that said "Welcome to Tennessee" I was once again connected with the rest of the world. Kelly couldn't believe how much this upset me.
* Snow is fun - especially in flip-flops... no one warned me that the greater Cincinnati/Dayton area was going to have a slush/snow/rain/sleet storm on Saturday.
* The Hofbrauhaus is technically in Kentucky - just on the other side of the river - which means you can still smoke indoors which is brutal for any Californian that appreciates clean air...

You won't see him working at the Hofbrauhaus in Munich...
* Bojangles in West Carrolton, OH just outside Dayton. The band played hard rock covers and originals that were really not that bad. At one point the techie was working on the drum kit when the lead singer took this real big step backwards in a complete rock star maneuver and almost bailed. I enjoyed that but not as much as the quality on the dance floor.
The night was saved when I almost traded my Guayabera for a denim shirt with a wolf silkscreened on the back. I had to *settle* for his faded blue t-shirt with Foghorn Leghorn on the front with the caption "Chicks Dig Me". Yes people, this is Dayton.
