Ok so I looked at my web server stats for the first time and the number one page requested is the blog. Don’t ask me why. I wish I had the time to do a nice blog like Dennis Cooper’s. Here Every time I look at his blog I’m amazed at how organized and interesting it is. Another great one is William Gibson’s. Here This is a fucking cool blog too. I wish I didn’t have a crappy day job so I could learn more techy stuff and have a nice web page and blog. For now though I lurk in the background of these two amazing blogs and make plans to rip them off like crazy when I get the time. 

So this weekend Lucia is going to NY to comfort a friend in need and I am going to try and fix my web page a little better and I might even get around to learning about my blog and how it works and how to let people comment and stuff. I’ll keep you updated. 

The reason Lucia is going to NY is to visit her friend Marcia who’s husband just died. His name was Oliver Hirsch and you can read the obit here. He was really a remarkable guy. He’s featured in the documentary Sir No Sir! http://www.sirnosir.com/ which is about Vietnam War protestors within the armed forces. This film really shatters several myths about the Vietnam War and the soldiers serving in our armed forces at the time. He also worked in a mine and later at several museums and eventually opened his own business in NY doing museum quality framing. If you can, see the film. And Marcia is a beautiful girl from Brazil who gave me the best ceviche recipe ever.
