And updated with a priceless bit of info.
LatinD and I will be at the Austin Toros game this Thursday night to help them celebrate Hispanic Heritage night. The Toros are also circulating a petition, in conjunction with the Maine Red Claws, to help get former Toros' coach and NBA great Dennis Johnson in the Naismith Hall of Fame.
Tickets are available right now for $3. Why $3? Because that was Dennis Johnson's number. So come out on Thursday, meet LatinD, sign the petition, and watch some hoops.
$3. Call 512-236-8333 for tickets. Tell them Wayne sent you. They won't know what you are talking about, of course.
Update: Part of Hispanic Heritage night is that they will be recognizing children from essay contest and LatinD will be answering questions for the kids.

By the way, LatinD is a cutie and he needs to hang out with younger and more attractive ladies than me, if anyone knows someone…
So the Obama look-alike pitch hasn’t been working?

It has failed miserably. I mean, hell, look at that price. If an Obama look-alike was working I’d be able to charge much more.

He was totally eyeing the Cheerleaders and willing to take photos, but he wouldn’t go the extra mile.
Seriously all he has to do is say “I’m from Argentina, can you help me find my seat”? WTF?

Hmm, I think I might go to this game, although I have an essay due the next day. Hopefully I can get my study on in a much more productive way than usual for this occasion.

You should definitely come. I believe it will be fun.

Hell, yeah. Well, first of all, we’ll be in the Toros gym part of the convention center. But, I figured you’d know that.
I’m not sure where we’ll be. Maybe we can commandeer a section of the stands or something.

I’m so sad I’m not a Texan (for this week).

My allergies strongly disagree.

Being allergic to Real America™ is a terrible thing, that’s why I had to move to California.

That answers a question or two. Where did you move from? Texas? Or are you referring to somewhere else?
(Probably more than I want to know actually but) I had wondered because you don’t seem particularly enamored with the whole So Cal experience.
Which of these things is not like the others? 15 NBA Championships, most wins in NBA history, current NBA champions, lost by 20 to the F'ing Spurs.
It was just a joke, I’ve always lived here since I came from Argentina. I actually really like California, but as messed up as the state is right now I wouldn’t be anywhere else except maybe Oregon or Hawaii, and Hawaii is effing expensive to live.
We got everything here, lakes, mountains, ocean, rivers, we have incredibly hot weather but also snow. I like the people too, except for Lakers fans.
Of course it isn’t perfect, what with the eternal deficits we have, and the traffic, and the effing almost 10% sales tax, and the stupid mandatory spay/neuter law we have in LA, but overall I think I’m gonna illegally live in here for a while.
"Under the tutelage....of Randy Tutelage"
As long as you’re living here, I’m glad you like it. I readily admit there are plenty of things not to like. It will be interesting to see what impression LatinD has from his visit. L A isn’t really a resort destination town. To me San Francisco, San Diego & Santa Barbara (Portland, Seattle, etc.) are much more visitor friendly. And between the cool/fun L A places is lots of traffic, concrete & crowds, etc.

Yes, if you’re a tourist LA isn’t really that impressive. I went to Santa Barbara for two days (actually I stayed in Carpinteria). They have the best dog park I have ever seen.
"Under the tutelage....of Randy Tutelage"
Yeah, It’s GREAT up there. Very expensive to live there though. And unfortunately not a lot of employers really.
To me San Diego’s just as fun. Btw, they have a dog beach that is just south of the inlet to Mission Bay (in Pacific Beach I think). Been there a bunch of times and it is lots of fun.
