Hi. My name is Ori, and I’m a workaholic.

I haven’t written much. I’ve started twice, and have those entries saved… it’s just that someone else’s life was involved since January, and it’s not really fair to put someone else’s life on public exhibition.  I also haven’t been CouchSurfing all that much– although I did hit a few states on business, and made sure […]

George Carlin - we shall miss you! (He died for those who didn’t know)

George Carlin.  What an inspiration.  Heart failure at 71….
Gosh…. some would say I am so morbid.  I haven’t blogged in forever… I did get to couch surf some, since my last post- but that’s another post.  My last post was about my dog dying, and this one’s about George Carlin.
Some of my favorite  George Carlin […]

My dog died :(

Peanut Bengal will be missed forever.  I have that Whitney Houston song stuck in my head… “And I… will always love you” complete with Saxophone solo.  Peanut was a Shlepard…. 1/2 lab, 1/2 shepard. I got the call this morning from my parents.  When they called last night to tell me, I had already passed […]

SAVE A LIFE! Very time sensitive!

My new friend Kristin just found out 1 week ago that her very best friend in the world, Sam The Poodle, has a medical condition, that if untreated will kill him. Sam is one year old, and her very best friend in the world! PLEASE, go to his new site and make a […]

I’ve broke 200 pounds! :)

If anyone remembers my Road-Cappuccino-caused fatness story (basically, I drank them at every gas station, and when it got cold I stopped exercising, and then got to my fattest, and my dad even made fun of me and called me fat), I had gotten to 215 pounds without exercising, and even had one of those […]

Tetris + Dreams = Independent Lady Magazine decision.

Robert Stickgold and his colleagues at Harvard Medical School in 1994 actually proved that the Tetris Effect exists. You can read about it in Scientific American. The term can be seen in Wikipedia as well. What Stickgold and associates proved was a new understanding of what dreams are…. that the brain […]

You can make money with google ads?

So, I mentioned that I’m actually stationary for a tiny bit.  One of the people I saw lecture while on the road was Joel Comm.  This guy practically invented the internet (he DID invent what is now “Yahoo Games”), and is a god-like figure for people who believe in Google AdSense.  What is it, and […]

My NEW adventure!

Where in the world is Couch Surfing Ori?   That’s what the text message often says.  Joe of Couch 56 sends it every month, sometimes more frequently.  His wife recently took to Couch Surfing, and was even my 1st guest at my new place.  So… based on the fact that you know my definition of adventure […]

Thanksgiving day parade pics are back up!

Sponsors have a way of wanting things their way, and that’s understood.  When I volunteered to work at the Ronald McDonald’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in Chicago, I agreed to their terms.  One of these was that all pictures had to get approved before being posted.  I had not realized this, so had posted them quickly- […]

Get good hosting!

I got sick of losing sleep due to GoDaddy's glitches, and crappy billing... I moved to BlueHost, and am happy! Awesome service, unlimited account hosting, and I'd love to see you use up all the bandwidth they give you for $6.50/month!
