Do not read this yet if you haven’t seen PART 1. Now then… SATURDAY – MARCH 7TH 5:45am – The bus pulls into the Iquique terminal. I’m still on Bolivia time. So it’s a quarter to five on my clock. The bus is nice enough to just dock there with the lights out and let … Continue reading →
Preface… What follows is not really a review. I thought, in my particular case, it would be more interesting to detail the experience of viewing Watchmen as opposed to just running through my critical view of the film. In a way, this serves as a bonus side-chapter to my Days Of Llojeta series. Like… If … Continue reading →
Which is not to say it isn’t already… I certainly don’t place much value in my own opinions for anyone other than myself. But I do always try and write a blog or two about this subject every year. And the subject I am referring to is the Academy Awards. I have only just now … Continue reading →
Yeah. It’s been a while, I know. Anyway, fuck it… As you know (and if you don’t – feel free to catch up by reading episodes 1 to 4 of this “series”), I work out at my buddy Ramiro’s house in Llojeta. Now then, it’s a very big house with lots of space and, sometimes, … Continue reading →

It was a good day (I didn’t even have to use my AK). Things ran rather smoothly on the ride down to Llojeta, and I allowed my mind to wander as I contemplated the important things I tend to contemplate as I am led into contemplation. By the way, today’s installment goes good with Strange … Continue reading →
Hello good people of the world. Today I begin a new “series.” This is meant mainly for friends and will most likely be excruciating for most other people as it will deal primarily with my pointless musings on life. An open diary if you will… So, feel free to skip right past these entries. Unless … Continue reading →
And so, the barrage of promotion has begun and I find myself having to make the rounds of press and face time on Bolivian TV (More on this in due time). I will attempt not to make myself look like an ass. But I’ll let all 3 of you who actually read my blog be … Continue reading →
British gangsters just aren’t scary. Wanted to get that out of the way up front just to make sure we’re on the same page. But this has nothing to do with British gangsters. It doesn’t really have to do with gangsters at all. It certainly has nothing to do with England. But that was one … Continue reading →
