Monday night – 641
Hello from room 641 in some nameless hotel in time square. I'm here for a meeting tomorrow. The room number, 641, is come up repeatedly in my life. It was my dad's first office address in Houston… And it was my Boy Scout troop. Now it is my hotel room. What does it mean? Does it mean anything? How can it not mean anything?
The questions on my mind after having dinner with my friend Sebastian, a number theorist. We had a great conversation and a pretty good Thai meal. Then we walked through the rain down through Times Square. I'm not a big fan of Time Square, but I do love the rain. I got so drenched that a random guy looked at me and said dude you look like Frankenstein. G-d I love New York.
More tomorrow from the road

We had in house today as well. I little previous turned 200,000 miles. It had that car since 2004. We bought it as a salvage car after a flood and except for the few things Related to my unauthorized modifications, it's never had a problem (knock on wood). Cars are a little like family members to me and this one good one it's taken all five of us and dogs all over the place. And I'm grateful to it. It turned 200,000 miles about a milefrom our house I stopped and had a little party for it. I even kissed it's bumper.
Thank you for being my car, little black prius !
