What we’ve been up to (or, what we’re saying we’ve been up to).
…and safety tiles. I took BART to San Francisco International Airport (SFO) this past weekend—the setup is pretty convenient (if you have access to a BART station). In fact, I was able to take public transportation all the way from Davis (in the Central Valley) to the airport. All told, the trip covered about 108 […]
…at MacArthur BART. I don’t travel around BART very much. I make my roughly 13-minute, 9-mile trip between the Richmond and Berkeley stations twice-a-day, 230 days-a-year, and these two stations account for 99% of my BART travel. Of the 43 stations in the BART system, I’ve actually set foot (i.e. boarded or de-boarded a train) […]
Just because we missed out on all things Lost at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con—Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof at a showrunner’s discussion; getting tested at the (new) Dharma Initiative recruiting booth; and the big Lost panel in Hall H (capacity 6,500)—doesn’t mean Max Pictures has given up on Lost until Season 5 begins next […]
…of the Richmond BART platform. And that’s about all we can say about that.
…well, we’ve got a customized home screen icon, at least. I’ve had an iPhone (3G) for just 20 days and I’m still learning how to use it. (Did you know this iPhone-thing is more than just a phone?) For example, one of my early-adopter 2G-owning coworkers pointed out that you can save Mobile Safari URLs […]
…is what I usually get at the Jazz Caffe. I like the Jazz Caffe. It’s situated, appropriately enough, in The Jazzschool. The food is good, but I rarely eat there (the menu is just on the edge of pricey and I’m just on the edge of cheap—scratch that, I’m well in the region of cheap). […]
…at the Davis Farmers Market. I had to meet some former Davisvillians (they resettled in Woodlandia to the north) for a clandestine item hand-off. Rather than go through a complicated “put a white chalk X on the mailbox by the waterwheel off Route 99 after you’ve put the envelope in the hollow rock by the […]
…on Virgin America. I dislike air travel. It’s not a fear of flying or anything. I guess I dislike commercial air travel. I don’t like having to get to the airport to meet the airline’s schedule, or dealing with the increasing luggage restrictions and TSA searches. I really don’t like how crowded and small coach […]
