Droopy's Journal

I am in San Framcisco at Ghirardelli Square. I am wearing a t-shirt from a local Pittsburgh university and a guy walks up to me as asks if I am from Pittsburgh. I said yes, and he tells me that he also lives in Pittsburgh. Of course, walking up to a total stranger and chatting them up is a typical thing for a Pittsburgher to do, but this guy has been in Pittsburgh only 2 months. I only talked to the guy for 5 minutes (his mother was hungry) but he was really interesting. He lived in a monastery for a while, lived in the desert for a month, walked the Appalacian Trail and broke his leg, and travelled to Pittsburgh on a whim and said if he can find a job and roommate in 7 days, he would stay and he did.

A real interesting guy.

This is the latest attempt by a Starbucks' employee to write my name on the cup. In this case, I even spelt it out for her. And she writes "DORKEY".

Sat in the audience for the Jay Leno show tonight. Was not even planning to go, but when we went to NBC today for the studio tour, they had extra tickets for Jay's first show of 2009.

The Pussycat Dolls were awesome.

Traing a new bank teller. She asked if I was serious when I said I wanted $200 in two dollar bills. She now knows I am serious.
