Prarie Wind T-shirt


Nothing exciting today. I went to bed at 11pm yesterday and got up at 5am this morning. I'm a man of 6-hour-sleep. So, if I go to bed at 10pm, I get up at 4am. Anyway, I went to my office at 7am today. Wow! I went to buy office supplies at Staples, went to USPS. I also went to buy slatwall hooks at display company. For what? Ha ha, it's a top secret of my job. I have lots of things to settle before I leave LA for Las Vegas this Friday. BUT, I stopped working at 6pm and went home. 11 hours is too enough.

Above pic is just a Neil Young's Prarie Wind T-shirt. When I bought this CD, I was in Japan. I wanted this T, so I ordered CD with T at Neil's Garage's store.

ABB Archives

Oh, I got 2 ABB CDs. ABB is The Allman Brothers Band, which is one of my most favorite American classic rock bands. I got #2 and #5 of their Archives. You can buy "official bootleg" at Hitting the Note.

I went to US Post Office to get Hold Mails of my apartment and my office this morning. My shipping address of these kind of shipments for CDs or other goods is my office. I put my mails on hold for my absence in my office,because I'm alone in my office and my apartment and travelling a lot for more than a week. I've been out of my town for about 2 weeks, so I asked USPS to put mails on hold before business trip to Phoenix, San Francisco and Las Vegas.

Duane Allman died on Octber 29, 1971 at motor cycle accident, and these audio sources were recorded on August 17, 1972 and September 19, 1971.

Firehills came back to LA safely

I'm home! It's a long trip. BUT, I have to go back to Las Vegas on next weekend again for the next trade show. I arrived my apartment in Torrance, and the first thing I've done was going to laundry room to wash my clothes. Oh, my goodness, people go to the beach or golf course on this Saturday. I went to my office at 12pm and worked until 4pm. That's too enough after lo---ng trip, isn't it? This is not my complain, you know. I'm enjoyning my job, in a sense.

From Las Vegas to Los Angeles

I could get out of Sands Expo at around 8:40pm yesterday. I have been there for more than 12 hours. Oh, my goodness. Anyway, I went to Ichiza Japanese Restaurant again and ordered 2 glasses of draft beer at one time. At this point I came back to my life.

I left Candlewood Suites on Paradice Road at 6am this morning and I'm here in MacCarran International Airport. It has a very good free wireless network. I will finaly return to my home in Torrance.

Sake House Ichiza

I safely arrived Las Vegas this afternoon. It rained yesterday or the day before yesterday for the first time in these five months, so a little bit cooler today, but it was more than 90F. It was below 60F in San Francisco this morning.

I went to Sands Expo directly from the airport, joined my colleague and worked until 6pm. We went to have a dinner at "Sake House Ichiza". It is said "Hamada of Japan" is the best Japanese restaurant here in Las Vegas, but it is wrong, I'm very sure now. I will stay 2 nights and go back to LA on Saturday.

From San Francisco to Las Vegas

I'm in San Francisco International Airport now, waiting for my flight to Las Vegas. Staying in San Francsico this time was really exciting, walking around in Downtown, getting on cable car, bus, or having good seafoods..

We went to Juban, Japanese-style barbecue house in Japan Town. My colleague is Korean American and she felt very weird to have Japanese-style barbecue. It's so funny to see that. I got 3 glasses of Japanese beer.

Then, I'm going to Las Vegas today for business, as I told you many times, not for slot machine. Airport is so busy, there were hundreds of people in line waiting for security check. Connecting to Internet through T-mobile, I'm listening to XM Radio now. See you from Las Vegas tonight.
