Por fin. After 7 LONG years of suffering heartbreaking after mindnumbing loss after one another, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets football team finally beat the University of Georgia (45-42 this past Saturday in Athens). Tech never beat UGA in my years there, so this win was especially bittersweet. What made it even more gratifying was [...]
So…I’ve had a few weeks to let it marinate (no pun intended). We’ve elected the 1st black man to serve as the leader of the free world. I’ve thought a lot about what this means in terms of racial and social progress in this country. I’ve thought a lot about what this may mean for [...]
I’m chilling here in Maysville, Kentucky having just finished a reasonably satisifying bean burrito and bean soft taco from Taco Bell. Here is one of the shittier things about life on the road: As a vegetarian, there are very limited dining options. Especially in indiscriminate towns like this. So, even when I attempt to eat [...]
The ATL airport has gotten exceptionally efficient over the past few years. I arrived at the airport at 7:20 AM for an 8:30 AM flight and got out of the security check at 7:35 AM. From entering the airport to getting my boarding pass to going through security – it took all of 15 minutes. [...]
I’m gonna choose to ignore mentioning the fact that we could’ve possibly made somewhere between a $40-$50 profit off of our tickets if we would’ve sold them on the day of the concert.

I’m here with my cousin (Anjal aka Jungle) in the Cabbagetown area of Atlanta (Inman Park, Kiirkwood, Edgewood, etc.). I got my go-to “down with brown” outfit on as I sit on the grass sipping a Sweetwater Blue cheering on the I-don’t-even-know-their-name family band (not their actual name). There was a 5k run and a [...]
The line at my poll location in Lawrenceville, GA It’s 7:24 am and I’m in the line to vote in the good ol’ city of L’ville…and the line to vote has way too damn much curvature for me to feel confident in getting to work in time. But…it’s moving at a decent speed…so, maybe only [...]
Ray LaMontagne, or Rey de La Montana (as I like to call him), is some new music I was exposed to last weekend on my visit to my cousin Sagar Desai Never Lies in Brooklyn. My cousin is into folk rock – and he mentioned Ray LaMontagne as an artist that exemplifies the type of [...]
Costume contest…sexy sailor is on the stage right now… Giggity giggity? Not so much… The music here is much better… We just took down some jäger bombs… Jäger bombs! Jäger bombs! Jäger bombs! This whole cowboy outfit is getting “respect”….to paraphrase Borat, “I like!”… Disgusta for Halloween? I’d say good decision… Although bartenders are tortoise [...]
