at a Boulder smoothie shop, I stood in line behind a large quartz crystal. . . . the crystal spoke using only its mind. . . it ordered an acai bowl with hemp protein, cordyceps, and ashwagandha.
We visited IKEA in Phoenix this weekend (actually Tempe). I don’t care how clever the Ikeans are. . . I’m not designing my house like this.
The eiffel tower with palm trees.
We spent the weekend in Vegas. . . My wife got a free room at the Flamingo and tickets to Lady Gaga from some boondoggle ran by a pharmaceutical company. It was a lot of fun. I love Vegas. . . especially the schlock.
Ah, Paris! . . . the fake sky. . . the fake trees. . . the fake left bank.
Only the ennui is real.
Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free
And I'll give you,
$20 worth of poker chips and $5 cocktails!
