i got pulled into the conan obrien 5th anniversary show right off the street in new york. no ticket, they just needed filler.

received free tshirts, was sat on the stairwell between sets of seats so many of the guest stars had to walk down to the stage next to me.

the funniest bit for me was i had just left a terrible taping of letterman. he was angry and sucked donkey balls

I was parked on the side of PCH and my friend and I were going to cross over to head down to the beach. He crossed in the middle of the road. I continued on to the intersection. Before I got to the intersection, I looked down and found $40 on the ground. There was no one around and no cars nearby. When my friend seemed a bit grumpy for making him wait while I took the long way, I said, “here,” and held out my hand and gave him one of the bills. We went to the nearby punk record store and bought some albums and 45s and ate lunch at a hippie Mexican place.

Girl Talk in 09 in Vancouver. We were early at the venue and they were selecting a few people to be up on stage for the whole show. Never sweat so hard in my life.

Saw a neighborhood kid toddling into the street as a car was bearing down. I ran across and scooped up the kid and did a flying somersault move into a lawn worthy of an action movie (at least in my head). Hot and grateful parent, dated for a very brief amount of time. Kid lives on and while I never kept in touch, I still hear through the hometown vine he’s a good kid doing fine for himself.

Was at a girlfriends place (around 82 when I was 12) in Leidschendam. We where walking next to a canal and we saw a kid on a tricycle. Next thing the kid was gone and we noticed he fell into the water but he couldn’t be seen in the murky water. We ran into a backyard calling for help, the kids dad was there and he jumped in the water and resqued his kid. Must all have been in less than a minute.
