This is Renal Tap

Hotel provided free Wifi at the DoubleTree in Downtown Boston, a good thing.

The Chinatown bus to Boston:

just $10, good.
crappy seat backs, bad.

What's the point of getting food at the Excellent Dumpling House in NYC's Chinatown, getting it packed because you wanted to get to the bus on time, and then ending up in Boston's Chinatown almost five hours later, with cold dumplings, that you can't store in the hotel mini-fridge anyways since it is packed with food tied to exorbitant incidental fees?

Eric P was in town this week. I unfortunately did not get a chance to see his new early eighties Porsche, but did get a chance to hang out with the boy while he was in town. There was as expected much reminiscing, and I was lucky enough to have recounted the singing of the song "Knock knock knocking on Minnies' door" sung to the tune of, well, you know.

Also, Matlock is still cool.

Edwards, lawyer like Matlock.

Conclusion: Theme music to the DNC, especially when Edwards comes out, should be, not some shitty tune like Macarena, but the Matlock Theme.

Finally, the BBC interviewed me one early morning in Bryant Park this week. They are doing some documentary on Macs and Apple products like the iPod. I was busy, and had the chutzpah to tell them that I only had two minutes. The saving grace of the interview, which was brusque, was, as usual, my dashing good looks.
