I've been a busy, busy boy, David.

Doing boring, boring stuff.

It takes time, boring stuff.

However, it allows you funds to buy interesting drugs.

If you can find any.

Yeah, I get that. In Matt Groening's all too apt description of work: "They made me do stuff I didn't particularly want to do."

JZ and I went dancing last weekend to a club that only played mashups. I thought it would feel super 21st century and cyberpunk cool. It was actually more like a frat party with lots oldies. But cooler because they were mashed together in interesting ways. On the plus side - there were more ridiculously beautiful women there than I think I've ever seen at a San Francisco club.

One woman had an anime body - tiny rib cage, big rack. And she was pretty too. Also, they had boy and girl go-go dancers, which is always fun. However, it would've been more fun if they danced in cages suspended over the dance floor, which is the natural habitat for the go-go dancer.

Did she have huge eyes? If not, then she was evil.

Not anime huge. They weren't bigger than say, a clementine. She may well have been evil, but that was overshadowed by the go-go girl wearing giant red sequined platform boots and red glitter eye makeup. She just looked more evil.

Gawd, this sucks. DavidS is all married and domestic and stuff and is still having experiences that William Gibson could turn into a bestselling slap in Bruce Sterling's face.

Yes, well, most of the credit goes to San Francisco itself which tends to foment this kind of thing.

Uh, like the kind of science that Wm. Gibson and B. Sterling will be writing about next year? Like creating an actual drug replicator?

Sure, the sound bite rocks, but the details ... Dude, the details are dreary.

I blame Wisconsin.

I blame Wisconsin.

Where do I buy this tee-shirt?

When I was in high school, I took one of those "Escape to Wisconsin" bumper stickers, cut out the "to" and stuck it on my parents' Mercury Marquis. I also put a WAPL (an AOR station) and a Pink Floyd - The Wall sticker on that car.

Now I wonder why my parents never said anything about the stickers.
