Summer Camp
Hello from the Buffalo Niagara International Airport. We’re on our way back to Los Angeles after spending a few weeks in Niagara-On-The-Lake in Canada.

It’s a perfect escape from the heat of Los Angeles and we get to ride bikes, watch tennis,…

The Publicly-Traded Person Moves To Los Angeles

While this would normally be a time for high-fives and champagne, as a publicly-traded person there is some disappointment that such a massive and life-altering decision was not put to a…
