Hiatus



Back to it. Picked up the wife and kid from the aiport. So good to see those two, let me tell you! Paisley loved her little elephant that I got her in Berlin, had a bouquet of flowers waiting for Traci at home. First rule of travel when you are a family man: bring home more for others than for yourself!

Allianz Stadium. We saw this on the way into Munich from the airport and my heart began to race. Maybe on the off chance, I might be able to sit in one of those seats and marvel at the skill and finesse of real football. Didn't want to get my hopes up too much so I pushed that idea into the depths. Olaf, our marketing manager for Germany, was nice enough to dig that dream back up for me and lined up box seats for Curb and myself to a friendly between Bayern and 1860. It was a couple of days late, couldn't quite sneak that one in before the big three oh, but hell, I'm already started on the things to do before you turn 40 list. I love crossing that shit off. Emotion, energy and loud. This stadium was alive with fanatics, chanting across the pitch at each other, singing their team's song, whistling at horrible calls. It was incredible. Thank you Olaf!
