From Europe at 30 to the World at 40
11+ years ago I went to Europe for the first time. I remember walking off the plane and thinking, "I'm in Germany...it doesn't seem as different as I expected." This was my post back from 2014. Reading it now, I laugh at how it was me doing that traveling - how, at...
A 40’ Container and One Man Who Wasn’t Ready
As a handyman, I’m a solid 5+. I can build desks and assemble shitty IKEA furniture. I’ve hammered thousands of handles onto brick hammers and ground thousands of rippers. But I’m not a tradesman - I don’t work with my hands every day in a way that makes me a true...
I Bought a Really Expensive Treadmill
Based on that title, how much would you guess I spent? I planned to have a poll below to see what people thought "really expensive" meant but our website sucks and although I MIGHT have the ability to do it, I'm also relieved I don't have to because it would...
Bagelpocalypse Now
I have a morning routine: I’m usually up around 6, and start the morning with a breakfast sandwich. After a year of getting bacon, I’ve gone back to sausage, egg, and cheese. Between Newtown and Philly, I’ve got a rotation of about ten spots where I know the quality,...
How Much is it Worth?
On 10/14, I injured my right knee in a non-contact incident on a new treadmill. Since then, I’ve been stuck using the elliptical. I’ll argue the elliptical is actually harder than running when the resistance is maxed out - you can go all-out on it and end up breathing...
I Thought You Were My Age!
This is what the guy said to me at the AT&T store last weekend after I gave him my license. In fact, the full quote was: AT&T Guy - 1991?? Dude I thought you were my age. Me - What the fuck is that supposed to mean, how old are you? AT&T Guy - Chill out...
Gym NPC’s
City Fitness in Northern Liberties is a great gym. The staff takes their jobs seriously - the towelettes are always stocked for wiping down machines, they hand out fresh sweat towels every session, there are dozens of trainers available, and the equipment is...
What a Difference Sleep Makes
Not many will find this post interesting, but it is a necessary update in my life. The last ~5 weeks have been very difficult. A typical night goes like this: 7:30pm - Put Harrison down to sleep 8:30pm - Go sleep ourselves 11:00pm - Harrison wakes up to feed 11:30pm -...
My Updated Opinion on AI
A year ago there wasn't a huge sample size of what AI generated output looked like. Now that thousands of individuals / companies are producing AI material, you start to sniff out what "feels" fake. Am I saying that all information from AI is fake? Well, it is...
