See my powerhouse move into blogging? So many ideas! So much to report on the awesomeness of my daily life! Yes, let’s go!

Or not.

I know how this works, having seen so many of my brethren and sistren in the blogging trade blast off only to fizzle out. Just as you’re getting into reading about their mission to visit every strip mall in LA or sell everything they own on eBay or see what happens now that they’ve started taking steroids…the entries stop.

Rosario Dawson cover for Angeleno. She rocks.

Met Christian Slater yesterday. I couldn’t figure out how he looks exactly like he did ten years ago. He told me he doesn’t like tofu.

Had a good conversation with Upod’s own Chrys Wu yesterday for her blog, Ricochet, where she’s doing some interesting work. Among other things, she’s compiling a list of post-print journalism gigs people are finding. That’s at Ricochet

Project X continues to gain momentum.
