That sound, though.

Like most bullies, when you press them on their shit, they reveal themselves to be cowards. I’m sure they were all bluster and braggadocio after they were done driving around with their Flag of Racist Douchebaggery threatening a child’s birthday party, but when they get held to account, they cave.

My take is that if it means that much to them to be in front me, it doesn’t mean that much to me to keep them behind me.

This aligns well with my plan to make golf more interesting to watch. Make each golfer start at opposite ends of the hole they’re going to play, one on the tee and one on the putting green. In my vision, there would be both a tee and a hole on each end.

I was in Boston then and he was kind of locally famous. I remember him leaving Lotus so he could have “some intentionally unstructured time”, a phrase I’ve borrowed many times when I needed some recuperation from busy periods.

That was one of my wife’s biggest disappointments when she reported the guy taking pictures up women’s dresses. She talked to exclusively women in the organization as she worked her way up the reporting ladder and none of them appeared to give a crap.

A Mercedes Benz Mustang. So much want.

In my experience with multiple startups, the maverick CEO is generally a prick to work for and often an embarrassment to be around with clients.

My wife, who has been working in tech for more than 30 years is well familiar with all the ways misogyny occurs in the tech industry. Blatant passes made when she was married. A guy taking pictures up women’s dresses at a Fortune 100 tech company’s Christmas party - and the HR department for a 50K employee company…

For the younger folks, it might be important to point out that Mitch Kapor is the guy who created Lotus 1-2-3 which is what we all used before Excel showed up. The guy knows his tech and, if memory serves, he created the Domino server and Lotus Notes, as well. 

Being a car enthusiast interferes with my equally strong addiction to motorcycles.

LOL. Yeah. There’s that and the ongoing effort of looking for a reason to be pissed off. That seems to be a regional sport.

We wound up in the Bay Area and love it. We lived in MetroWest in Mass., so we weren’t exactly heading down to the Cape every weekend. It’s an hour to fly to San Diego from here, which is where I left to move to Massachusetts.

I fly in and out of Phoenix and closing the blind is requested as you deplane.  

I also lasted 25 years there, but wasn’t a native. My wife, who is also not a native, and I just couldn’t get our heads around staying there. The neighbors are cliquish, the weather is abysmal and the roads are horribly crowded. During the time I lived there, I watched them pave over every single passing zone on…

Motorcyclist here. Box trailer is the way to go. Keeps your stuff secure and away from prying eyes and is generally way easier to load, especially with today’s mile high truck beds.

We learned in our 335i that if you have 2 gallons of water in a leaky container, it will fry the expensive Harmon Kardon sound system, which lives in the well where they used to put a spare tire.

I’m getting Rosie Ruiz Boston Marathon flashbacks.

It would be kinder than the 6" sharpened steel spike I’d put in the center of every steering wheel.

Call it “Failed to use safety equipment” and apply it to idiots that don’t wear helmets on motorcycles and die as a result.
