  1. I hung out with him for a period of about 3 months when I lived  in San Francisco. This was probably around 2016ish??
     

    I was really fucking sad to hear he’d passed. We almost died one day (legitimately) when he was “teaching” me how to sail on his questionably acquired sail boat. He showed me how to do some navigation, and then asked if I wanted to try it. I then proceeded to steer us directly into the fog bank, which he let me try to get us out of too, for about 20 min to no avail; at which point he said “let me give it a shot, oh and if you hear a foghorn blow 3 times in a row, jump off the boat” I laughed, he handed me a life jacket and said very calmly “ we’re in the shipping channel of San Francisco Bay, they don’t stop, and if they blow the horn 3 times, a CARGO SHIP is about to run over your vessel”. That was the only time I ever saw him look even somewhat worried, and even then, it was still in a “let come what may” kinda way. Anyway, we made it out of the fog that day, when we popped out we were maybe 200yds from running aground on Alcatraz. We laughed, cracked a beer and headed back to Saucelito where I’d parked. 
     

    That man was as fucking cool in person as his thread here made him seem, and I was and am really happy I was able to call him a friend  even if just for a short time.

    There's things we can do as humans and as a society to minimize these sorts of things. 

     

    I sincerely hope that people really take this as a lesson and take efforts to improve their resiliency and preparedness. Its a bad situation how most people can barely take on any unexpected financial or physical hardship. Really bad that people are not prepared to lock down for a week or two in terms of groceries and supplies. Hopefully we all wash out hands a little more frequently as well.

    oh i bugged out to the country with my old lady and kiddos the day before my city got shut down. we got a month worth of food and water and the hardware to ensure it stays ours if we need to use it, but grocery stores are still open here so its reserves. Im just bummed cause i wanna go home, but being in a major metropolis doesn't seem like the safest move for several obvious reasons. 

     

    I'm just thinking if this is just gonna be a thing now like the flu every year, wtf is that gonna change up in real life after this quarantine shit.

  3. Thinking about jumping back on the old wagon myself, been getting into too much bullshit lately.

    It's always weird to me whenever i lay off the booze for a while, i feel like everything's gonna be

    great all of a sudden because i stopped. Then I struggle to stay sober when it's not.

  4. A buddy just called and asked if i wanted 2 tickets and a parking pass for free. I was tempted to hop on the harley with a tent

    and smash out there, and then i remembered that i don't like rave shit like that at all. Almost said yeah, just cause it'd be fun to go desert partying with KIR.
