More Rally Planning
2010 will be the year of my Gumball like rally, that I’ve previous talked about.
- 3 days long, probably Saturday to Monday so we don’t have to deal with Friday traffic.
- Limited to 6 cars
- One driver and one passenger per car
There’s are two possible routes. Â The first is 560 miles out to Tom’s Place on 395, over the amazing Sonora pass.

Finished editing honeymoon photos
With over 3000 photos taken during the Honeymoon, i’ve been spending a lot of time editing.
One of my favorite pictures
They’re all edited now and are slowly being uploaded to my server, but at 2.5GB for the selection of best photos, it’s going to take a while.
Took some pics of my Z4 Coupe
While out this morning I found a nice empty roof-top parking structure to take some pictures on. Thought they actually looked good in the rain.

Finally found a car
Today I sold my Scion and provisionally signed for Z4. It will be certified pre-owned but isn’t quite ready so I could not drive it. Wednesday/Thursday should be collection and final delivery day.
oooh, a Z4 Coupe

New Years Eve Eve
Up in SF with Forest and Betty’s New Years Eve Eve party. Betty had rush ordered caviar and prepared other amazing appetizers.
Later on we headed over to Local Kitchen, a new restaurant that has amazing wine selections and fancy pizzas.
Thanks Forrest and Betty!
80’s Party and Laeres Birthday
Two parties in one evening and a drunk Jon. The evening began about 7pm in San Jose for Tamara’s birthday party. She’s mad on the 80’s so we had to come in 80’s dress. To get over my shame I started drinking.
I’d secured a completely hideous jacket (complete with shoulder pads) and pink shirt for the occasion. Nikki went all out with red shoes, crimped hair and an amazingly large belt.

@The Sports Page
Once again for outdoor drinking, this time at The Sports Page bar on Shoreline.
Aaaah! Pitchers of Stella, Sun and Friday evening, could I be happier? Oh yes I could, with C-130‘s taking off from Moffett over the bar, my evening was set!
The Sheet
From a little white back now, but well worth the wait…
While staying in Bridgeport on our visit to Bodie we came across the local paper called “The Sheet”
It seemed to be a sort of Enquirer meets Private Eye. From the name, it’s obvious they’re having fun.
The trouble with glass
When in Half-moon bay today I noticed a poster for a truck, nothing unusual there. However, look at the picture, the advert has tear off strips with a phone number yet it inside a locked glass cabinet.
TomTom adds Buddies
TomTom has announced Buddy support for their GPS navigation devices. This appears to be a IM and location system.
Seems that stalkers and suspicious wives now have all the tools they need. While driving to that secret rendezvous remember, someone could be watching you. 😉
El Rego
Last night I went to The Register’s US launch party as The Tiedhouse in Mountain View.
There was a very good turnout from local companies, mainly engineers or PR people. As usual at any Register event, drinking beer was the primary activity. I really didn’t know how large El Rego had got since its modest beginnings. They’ve got something like 25 staff in the UK and a growing in the bay area.
