I’ve been procrastinating on Xanga because of my new found addiction to Twitter. You can follow me @joecool79. But as a deal signed with Em, I will conceed to a Xanga post because I’ve been up to so much since my last update that 140 characters just won’t suffice. And on to the pictures!
First big news: Gagan is married. I’ve known this guy since high school when his family first immigrated to the US. Great person and I couldn’t be happier for him. Found a beautiful wife and had the wedding ceremony and reception at the RB Inn. After seeing the event there, it’s definitely only my top 10 for locations for a wedding. Check out the picture for yourself.
Moving forward along my Flickr timeline, we have the awesome Red Bull Air Races. It was attended by Jason, Dawn, Karin, and I, though the image only shows the fabulous Karin and Joseph.
Damn I dislike Xanga. You’re on the verge of going over to wordpress. If it wasn’t for Biz Stone, I would have left this place long ago. Moving on. We have some excellent adventures at my graduation. Yes, I graduated from my MBA program at UCSD. And I’m fortunate enough that I was able to land a job at PixelActive, the company I had been interning at since March of last year. Let’s take a look at some pictures.
That’s a great picture of Karin, myself and John. It was a short ceremony and had a reception with champagne and fondue. I don’t think there was much to complain about there.
I might mention that somewhere in between all of this was a summit of Mt. Whitney. I don’t know where those pictures are. But as soon as I find them, you’re damn certain that I’ll post them on Flickr.
After graduating, I immediately took a flight to Cincinnati. What for? To visit my brother! But while he was out at work, I found time to visit the art museum, Mt Adams, and the other main attraction of Cincinnati, the Ohio River. After 1 hour, the attraction loses its luster. So the following day I went to Paramount’s Kings Island where I went on the faster roller coaster in the world, Diamondback!
The first pictures show me hanging out with Dora the Explorer. She welcomed all the guests and happily took pictures with us for minimum wage. The second picture shows me ascenting Diamondback before taking off on the adventure of a lifetime. If you want to see the footage, you can check out my recording on YouTube. Though you can’t see it from the film, somewhere along that ride, my iPhone fell out of my pocket. A situation that quickly came to a head during the docking of the train. I’m happy to say that the iPhone is now happily back in my possession after 2 weeks of absence. But that’s really another story. Let’s see if these images will show up! And just for good fun, more pictures of Marley!
