Pittsburgh (a bit late)

Monday, August 7th, 2006 at 2:14 am

So after Cleveland last Saturday, James and I headed to Pittsburgh Sunday morning, and took in a Giants-Pirates game at PNC Park. At a capacity of 38,500, PNC Park is the smallest park built in the latest wave of stadium building. ESPN.com’s “Page 2″ rated it as the best ballpark in the majors when they [...]

Uhh, hello? Hello? Hello! Hello Cleveland, ha ha ha!

Umm, sorry for the lack of updates. I have a draft of a post with a bunch of updates that I haven’t completed yet. I’ll post it when I get back into Cambridge.
James and I decided to take a weekend trip to visit a couple of baseball parks, and settled on a two-day trip to [...]

Changes

Damn, it’s been a long time between posts…again. Stuff has been hectic since I got back from India. Where to begin…
India, as usual, was crazy. Far too many things going on with family, too little time, and a bunch of surreal experiences. Like a birthday party for a one-year old that was put on like [...]

No More Free Wireless at Logan

Monday, April 3rd, 2006 at 12:37 am

Somehow forgot to write about this last week after I got in. As I was flying out last Saturday, I realized that whoever runs Logan’s wireless network had managed to remove the page that previously allowed you to get free wireless access. Since Massport is deadset against allowing airlines to provide free wireless access, we’ll [...]

A Journey

Sunday, April 2nd, 2006 at 5:27 am

In the span of four days, we managed to go through Portland, Victoria, Vancouver (briefly), and Seattle, along with many of the surrounding areas. Victoria, where we spent most [...]

Oregon Trail

Family didn’t wind up going on the cruise. Long story, which involves multiple crazy relatives. Ask me about it some time in person. Anyways, my parents, my brother, and I are driving up to Vancouver instead while checking out the greater Pacific Northwest. It’s about a 1000 mile trek each way. Managed to log 750 [...]

You know you’re in California when…

Sunday, March 26th, 2006 at 12:25 am

…announcements for employees on the airport loudspeaker are in Spanish. And only in Spanish.
Yeah, I’m back at home in Cupertino, a day later than I would have liked. Not much exciting on the flight over, although flying JetBlue for the first time was pleasant. Especially with the unlimited snacks. Didn’t really do much other than [...]
