Two fun stories for today. Enjoy them.
Story 1
Last night I was in Brooklyn at this pretty sweet bar, and I don’t really know if it had a name… all I could tell is that it had huge iron doors as if it were hiding massive machinery.
Luckily it was not. In fact, it was hiding a hip and trendy place that is definitely worth visiting again. The people seemed very cool, even though I didn’t actually meet anybody new.
There were darts, a pool table (which was impossible to get access to, sadly), and ping-pong. Some photo’s of the night:
The drinks weren’t too pricey, which made it that much more worthwhile.
What made it even better, is that I was with a bunch of cool people from work, and my awesome friends from college (Kris and Sokha) from Albany and Boston. Thanks for visiting, you know how much I love you. 
Story 2
I was sent a message via one of the sites I belong to. It went as follows:
Your first picture looks like ET.
That was it. Nothing more. I am so scared, scared for my life, scared for humanity, scared for all. Now, I don’t really disagree with the statement, at least with this specific pose. I am just so confused as to what could possibly compel someone to say that.
Pictures for comparison:
But I really find it strange that someone would even bother contacting me to tell me that I look like the alien that plagued my childhood nightmares for years.
I guess it really is ironic, because I was the only one scaring myself then, and now that I look like what I was afraid of, I have become my own worst fear. Well, as a child at least.
