Wonderful write-up at NY Times about Conan O'Brien and his latest projects.

O’Brien’s return might have been that it was overshadowed by “Hot Ones.” For 30 minutes, O’Brien made every previous episode of that show look bland, hijacking the interview, adopting a swaggering idiot persona, hilariously taunting the host and swigging entire bottles of hot sauce while becoming increasingly unhinged. There was a clownishness and commitment that is hard to imagine any other late-night host pulling off.

In The 15-Minute City: A Solution for Saving Our Time and Our Planet, human city pioneer and international scientific advisor Carlos Moreno delivers an exciting and insightful discussion of the deceptively simple and revolutionary idea that everyday destinations like schools, stores, and offices should only be a short walk or bike ride away from home.

A new book that is coming out soon. After doing a little more reading, over 100 cities around the world have started to adopt his ideas after the pandemic. Reminds me of the 100-Mile Diet.

Added to my reading list.

I enjoy the rush of energy that is felt when connecting with someone new on a deeper level. The anticipation of being able to talk with them again is both a test of my patience and makes the wait so worthwhile. So very worthwhile.

After a successful week in Cranbrook, I am back in Kelowna. Looking forward to spring weather arriving soon and getting rid of these grey skies.

It's been a few snowy days here in Cranbrook. A very productive time meeting with the team at The Baker Hotel and getting things done. I think it's the start of great things to come.

Departing for Cranbrook, BC shortly to spend the week working with a new hotel client, The Baker Hotel. A small boutique hotel located downtown.

Looking forward to learning more about the operation and a new community to explore.

After missing the flight yesterday, I’m going to miss the kick off for the Super Bowl.

Leaning Chiefs.

a) don’t want another team in my division winning besides my Seahawks
b) I like having a team everyone hates that’s good
c) the analysis this week by @danorlovsky7 is smart

Unbelievably annoyed with myself this morning. Misread my flight information and arrived at the airport 30 minutes before the flight– too late to board. Watched the flight take off while walking back to the hotel.

Here for another night when I really just want to be home.

It's funny how on Sunday I arrived here in Whitehorse ready to get down to business, full of energy. By the end of Thursday, I'm absolutely wiped and counting the hours until I head home.

In the middle of a work trip for a week. It's annoying how the rhythm of my days are completely off. Not sleeping very well, not as hungry, constantly tired. Looking forward to being home on Saturday.
