What year is this?

It's been so long, I can't recall.

Perhaps I felt as though I had already accomplished what I set out to do. After all, I don't think I specified if the dunk had to be legitimate.

Right now, my belly is so full of pad thai that it would take a trampoline just to deposit myself into bed.

The stuff of legend right here, boy.

That Michael Jordan is so Phony

Dunking off a trampoline yesterday afternoon, again and again until my legs were sore, was a terrific experience.



Of course, it's fun just to play and be silly - but after a while, I forgot the tramp was even there. Throwing down on the rim began to feel authentic. Hell, even the pictures look convincing.

It reminded me of rainy days at Canada's Wonderland; with nobody else in line, I could hop off the roller coaster, run around to the entrance and catch the next ride. The experience wasn't entirely similar though. Those few seconds that I spent in the air disappeared pretty quickly, while the non-stop rides at Wonderland felt endless.

Is it ridiculous then, to strive for something so momentary. It does seem like more of a mirage, but perhaps it's a necessary one: it can be hot and tiresome in the desert, and you don't want to stop for too long under the sun. If I need something for motivation, however fleeting, then it's worthwhile.

But I digress. After all, a picture does say a thousand words:

Of Cowboy Boot Concept Lamps...

...and other faux-trendy items on display at my hipster hotel in Frankfurt.

Not much else to say on that topic actually. Poorly chosen title.

As for my "spring cleaning" plan...well here I am on the party scene.

On the other hand, there's more than one way to shake off the winter dust - staying up until the sunrise, wandering an unfamiliar city, talking to strangers.

Bound to inspire the mind and the soul...

What's better than going to sleep after playing good basketball?

Nooooooboody!

I know that doesn't make sense, but the hell. It's copyright infringement anyway.

I dunno...dunking seems real far away right now. But the jumper's coming along.

That's cool too, right?

Status Whoa

March is almost over but it's not too late to refine my focus for this month. So far, my agenda has looked like this:

• Month one - establish goal
• Month two - beware false prophets and pursue goal

With winter almost gone, I think my current focus should be seasonal:

• Month three - make room for lift-off with thorough spring cleaning
