Many of you may not be aware of the number of fake, kitschy, tourist-oriented Irish bars in & around the Times Square area, so let me be the first to tell you that it’s a lot. A yelp search of “Irish pub” on my zip code returns 125 results. (A yelp search of “awesome robot [...]
For the last eight days or so, I’ve been in China, specifically a small town called Jingzhou. (It’s worth noting that in China, a “small town” can contain 1.2 million people.) I ran into an American guy there who claims to be one of only eight foreigners in the entire city, which I totally believe. [...]
I am a remarkably gifted man, and many, many people are jealous of me for that, but even I am not perfect, loyal reader.

As you may or may not be aware, I live in Manhattan and work for a fairly bleeding edge tech company. Most of my friends are engineers, scientists, doctors, lawyers, and other popular subjects of primetime television dramas. Almost all of them have some level of post-grad work, be they MSs, MBAs, MDs, PhDs, or [...]
For most people who do not live in New York, often times the only places they’ve heard of here are Central Park and Times Square. I live close to Central Park, which is awesome; I run there all the time and it’s almost worth the 3.5% municipal tax (almost). I live much closer to Times [...]
