Our Yearly Playlist

Finally saw the movie I’ve been waiting for. Loved it, but it will take a few more screenings to know why.

Fun with mirrors.

Birthday Dinner at SUR in West Hollywood.

Happy birthday to the most beautiful and talented CEO with braces I know.

Nothing particularly great about this picture other than the fact it was taken on the way home from the casinos as the sun was coming up. We left Imperial Palace at 5:30am after a young limey finished what turned out to be an hour session of throwing the dice. We were down about $1200 before he started, but when he finally crapped out we…

Our favorite dive casino.

We go away for the weekend and our daughter decides to wear heels.

Room with a view. By the way, we’re here for Sonia’s 40th.

Huge in room TV equals awesome.

#20 in progress. Planet Hollywood.

I know it may seem like were in Vegas every other week, but that’s only true if we’re talking about the last six weeks.

#1 is done.  But now that we have it all on the line, we’re expecting the roller coaster ride to continue. The buying office is stable and in pretty good hands. As far as the production side goes, it’s just the beginning. How it will turn out is anyone’s guess.  The above screen shot is of a popular online clothing shop that is featuring…

#17 is technically done.  Along with giving to the Tears foundation, Susan Komen for the cure and Avon, we will be supporting one of our client’s pledge to build a playground at an orphanage in Haiti.   This particular client was so moved by her recent mission trip there that she is also adopting a little girl.  Pretty cool.  And yes, Ona, I still…

Sunday night appetizers. 

Got up bright and early to score a seat at the pub for the World Cup Finals.  Great game. Would have loved to see the Dutch take it, but Spain was worthy.  

At a wedding.

Happy 19th to my bro, George.

Producing Samples.

Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one listening.

Finally saw this again. They don’t make prison movies like they used to.

Made the hanging lamps sway. That’s what we get for 72 degrees and sunny I guess.

June Recap New York remains what it has always been : a city of ebb and flow, a city of constant shifts of population and economics, a city of virtually no rest. It is harsh, dirty, and dangerous, it is whimsical and fanciful, it is beautiful and soaring – it is not one or another of these things but all of them, all at…

Gritty search for thread. Another glamorous day in the fashion biz.

LA Fashion Insider had the day off… To shop.

Out to lunch with my girls.

Remembering some of the best 4ths in Gustavus, Alaska.

From Venice to Paris in ten minutes.

Michael Jackson lives in Vegas.

The girls enjoying another day at the pool. The more time not gambling the better.

At The Bellagio for another Vegas weekend.

Building furniture for our new downtown office.

Here’s a new discovery. A chili cheese, kobe beef slider in the middle of a donut. Just gained two pounds.

#18. Motivation. Writers on writing. Stephen King: I am the literary equivalent of a Big Mac and fries.Ernest Hemingway:  Write drunk, edit sober. Hunter S. Thompson:  The only thing to be said this time about Fear & Loathing is that it was fun to write and that’s fair, for me at least because I’ve always considered writing the most hateful kind of work. Elmore Leonard:  I…

Click here to see some of the photos from our New York trip.

Finally saw Invictus on the plane back from New York. I liked it well enough. However I still don’t understand rugby and it was clear that Clint Eastwood didn’t care.

#14 in progress. Read Foer’s novel, Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close. Great writer, but ultimately I was a little cold on the nine year old narrator.

Last late night meal. Virgin Pina Coladas and mashed potatoes at Rockefeller Plaza.

Grand Central. 

Shopping on 5th Ave.

Belvedere Castle overlooking Turtle Pond.

Zabars picnic in the park.
