A dumb romp through the space. Category Archives: the day lee. Newbaums 4 color weave. August 16, 2016. Whenever I think about re-wrapping the harlequin. Weave on my handlebars all I hear is the line from. Where Click and Clack the Tappet Brothers say, “Well, it’s happened again you’ve wasted another perfectly good hour listening to. But like most things, the four-color weave takes a little patience and a little practice but it’s well worth it when even the Trumpians at the Velodrome take notice. Not onl...

A dumb romp through the space. You are what you smell. August 27, 2015. All the tea in China. Last year the porcelain bridge I’ve worn in my mouth since high school gave out, so I’ve been spending a lot of time at the dentist lately, preparing for some new teeth. As it turns out, I’ve also been spending a lot of time. He’s the guy that got us into roasting our own coffee beans, so in return we told him about Sean Thackrey wines. Now his new obsession is a gadget called the Coravin. And what he’s wo...

Thai food in an LA strip mall on a Saturday Night | a dumb romp through the space
http://moonquake.org/2015/08/thai-food-in-an-la-strip-mall-on-a-saturday-night
A dumb romp through the space. Thai food in an LA strip mall on a Saturday Night. August 2, 2015. Things i worry about. You know the kind of strip mall I’m talking about, the corner lot with two exits/entrances, where more backwards driving is done than forwards, with pockets of weird parking spaces that make no sense, like the one we parked in, where upon finishing our dinner we saw that we were blocked by not one but two cars. David tells Bill and I about when he was sixteen and worked at a Haagen Dazs...

DWP rebate here we come | a dumb romp through the space
http://moonquake.org/2015/07/dwp-rebate-here-we-come
A dumb romp through the space. DWP rebate here we come. July 11, 2015. Our friend Andrew gave us a Kalanchoe to kick-off the plant portion of our landscaping project. So off to Theodore Payne. We went for the first part of our plant buying spree. Since it’s the summer, the selection is pretty limited, but we picked up some Marrow, Yarrow, Lupine, Sage, Buckwheat, Penny Royale, Fuchsia, Milkweed, Manzanita and a Catalina Cherry. Sale, filled with crazy plants and even crazier people. Which prepared us to ...

Salute to all things annoying | a dumb romp through the space
http://moonquake.org/2015/01/salute-to-all-things-annoying
A dumb romp through the space. Salute to all things annoying. January 24, 2015. Things i worry about. My mom is neither young or on Facebook (nor does she read my blog) but lately it feels like she has taken on the most annoying Facebook posting habits. You know the ones I’m talking about. They’re the status posts where the person says Oh my God I’m so depressed about what happened, and after a million comments of r u ok? And praying 4 u and did something happen? I salute the annoying Facebook posts all ...

Duck breast in my jersey pocket | a dumb romp through the space
http://moonquake.org/2015/02/duck-breast-in-my-jersey-pocket
A dumb romp through the space. Duck breast in my jersey pocket. February 18, 2015. All the tea in China. Last week while riding down Topanga Canyon I got my first flat as an adult. Technically it was my second flat, as the first one happened in my garage overnight, so let’s count this as my first puncture acquired in public. The people I were riding with had already gone down the hill, because who wants to linger on Topanga Canyon? Hard to keep the headwind from blowing you into a complete standstill.

A dumb romp through the space. You can’t pick your neighbors like you can’t pick your family. February 25, 2016. Things i worry about. When we first bought the house the guys from Boston. Brick and Stone (of all places) told us that to rebuild the entire chimney to code would require use of the neighbor’s driveway for 2-3 weeks. Ha! We don’t need a stinking fireplace, we said. The Monster at the End of this Book, starring Lovable, Furry Old Grover. Keep the old firebox, and install an Eco-Smart. I almost...

Tuo Cha gone awry | a dumb romp through the space
http://moonquake.org/2015/06/tuo-cha-gone-awry
A dumb romp through the space. Tuo Cha gone awry. June 27, 2015. All the tea in China. If you’ve ever visited a tea factory it will come as no surprise that there can be a lot of variation between bags, or batches of tea. In fact, if a tea farmer serves you tea, and you want to buy some of it, it’s best if you buy from. I doubt that the tea was improperly stored, or that anything could have been done to the tea over the years to save it. Sometimes you just lose one. A visit to Sean Thackrey →.

Doing, meaning, and things that look like other things | a dumb romp through the space
http://moonquake.org/2015/01/doing-meaning-and-things-that-look-like-other-things
A dumb romp through the space. Doing, meaning, and things that look like other things. January 2, 2015. A client said to me the other day: “Just because I ask for something, doesn’t mean I want you to do it.”. 8220;…”. Now, I’ve already got a client that never. To ask me to do something. It goes like this (he calls it a conversation):. 8212;——–. 8220;I wonder if there is an app that does X.”. 8220;Seems like there’d be a bunch of apps that did X? 8212;——–. My fitness app showed me what I did:.

My Google Important folder, and the authentication of Pu’er tea. | a dumb romp through the space

A dumb romp through the space. My Google Important folder, and the authentication of Pu’er tea. February 12, 2015. All the tea in China. When you manage your email through Google, the system automatically creates default folders for you, and although most of them make sense (Sent Messages really do contain emails that I have sent), there is a truly confounding folder labeled Important, which is where some of my email goes, and ALL of the emails I delete.*. Did I freak out? The other day someone from a fa...
