Sartori in Paris I’d wanted to read this for many years but reading doesn’t come easy these days. 4096 miles on a budget airline in an aisle seat flying over the wide blue expanse of the Pacific did the trick. The only in flight entertainment being Australian fishing shows. I split my reading time between Sartori…
A Trip Around the World – Starting Now
Most of our regularly scheduled NFT and Blockchain content will be on hiatus through the summer. Vagobond Magazine and the daily beats will return after summer. I hope you’ll all excuse this series of posts and articles that I’ll be doing over the next 6-8 weeks. I’m happy to announce that my long scheduled and…
On Launching and Minting Out Izit-a-Bear – My 10k pfp Collection
I wanted to take a moment to reflect on my time in the NFT space at this moment. This moment is a few hours before the reveal of my minted out 10k generative pfp collection – Izit-a-Bear. Since getting into the NFT space, I’ve been building, building, building. First on Wax creating the Bald Jesus…
Where My Vanagon Goes – A Hawaii NFT Collection with Utility, Style, and Beauty
I just realized I neglected to write about launching my NFT Collection “Where My Vanagon Goes“. It’s an homage to a couple of things I really love – VW Vans (see my book covers dating back to 2003 if you doubt this), Hawaii (see my home since 2001), and NFTs – I mean, NFTs just…
Living Bald Jesusism: Month Four of Twelve
I’m not going to lie – last month was challenging for me in terms of Bald Jesusism. In fact, I would go so far as to say that I didn’t live BJism very well at all. Now, that’s not to say that my fourth month of living this philosophy wasn’t a good month for me…
Disneyland California Adventure – Thrills and Chills
First of all – before I say anything else – Get the Genie+. It was $20 each and it saved us hours and hours of waiting by giving us Lightning Lane on almost every ride, gave pretty good suggestions and also gave us the ride photos for free. 100% worth it even if the cost…
A Visit to Hollywood
I’m always torn about saying where I grew up – my emotionally struggling parents started out with good intentions of having their kids grow up in a Southern California mountain town but then seriously lost the thread and dragged us through hell before I managed to get back to where childhood had seemed normal just…
Travel Thursday: Knotts Berry Farm in Buena Park, California
My family has a long history with Knotts Berry Farm which was America’s first theme park. My grandmother used to actually buy berries from the farm before it was an amusement park. My parents, my cousins and siblings, and now our kids have all made that initial pilgrimage there. Today was the day I finally…
An Offbeat Dude in an Offbeat Town – Vagobond in Austin, Texas
Austin is the fastest growing city in the United States – and it has been such since 2010. This rapid growth creates a dynamic environment that provides opportunities and more than a little griping by the ever elusive Austinites – those who were born and raised in this once quiet state capital. Austin is home…
