Roller Coaster Adventure. Mission: incomplete
I arrived at Six Flags with dreams of flying through the air on each and every one of the sixteen coasters offered at Magic Mountain. I left with sore feet, a backache, a lovely face sheen from my sun screen and an intense craving for Wendy’s Spicy Chicken Sandwich.
My mission: incomplete
The truth is, it’s literally impossible to ride all sixteen roller coasters at Six Flags Magic...

"Are You Lost"
I’m sitting, listening to live music on the 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica, when a young buck, with bling laden ears, approaches me and opens what evolves into an entirely way too long conversation with, “Are you lost?”
I politely answer, “no.”
“I saw you over there and now you’re over here, may I sit?”
“Sure.” Cause why not?...

What The Hell Am I Thinking?!
I have extreme motion sickness, and a slight fear of roller coasters, yet I just HAD to choose this for my next mission for the Ford Fiesta Movement:
“Think a lil’ ol’ rollercoaster can’t get your blood pumping? We bet you’re wrong. Grab your closest weak-kneed friend, head to the nearest theme park, and test your rollercoasting skills by taking a ride on every one there. Keep your hands and...

I'm patient, now quit asking..
There’s this nice, old man sitting next to me at Starbucks. He walks up with a smile and asks for the extra chair at my table. I smile back and say, “Of course.” But it’s as he takes the chair that he starts mumbling about this “not being my office” and needing to “pay rent” to be here.. Did you not get my chair? Did I not gladly offer you my other...

From Retro Review to Golden Age Glam
For the month of June, the Ford Fiesta Agents were assigned the theme of technology. I chose a mission that would allow me to go back in time with a Retro Review! My review had to be on a piece of tech at least ten years old, so thanks to my good friend Lisa, I went with the Apple Macintosh Powerbook 145. (thanks Lisa!)
I had a lot of fun making the video Baby Bytes, but I don’t plan on...
