Ok, so I am finally done with the month long super adventure. I had more fun then a person should be allowed to have while working. This was the first time for me to spend time on both coasts in less then one week. It was nice to play jet setter for a while. But to be honest, I hate flying. I know I had said it was getting to me before, but now its official. I hate it all. I hate the airport, I hate the planes, I hate the turbulance, I hate the way they talk so fast and so distored on the announcemnts that you cant possible know what they said. I hate…ok enough with the hate…on to the fun.
The highlight of the trip to me was a stop in Coney Island. I LOVE roller coasters. I have been blessed to have a good woman in my life that took me all over the wester states for a birthday riding every roller coaster we could find. True fun! So on this trip I got to ride the classic CYCLONE at Coney Island. Right there by the Wonder Wheel.
Ayway I had a great time. Its all documented over at WuChess.com so check it out if you dare. Oh and I have lots of photos on my flickr.
On June 9th I got on a plane and flew to Houston for a month long tour with the RZA. I know what you are thinking.
1 - Who is the RZA
2 - Why?
Lets start with the easy one. 1 - RZA is a rapper/producer from the Wu-Tang Clan. I must admit that during my rap period in school Wu-Tang was a staple.
The answer to number 2 is we (the company I am part of) recently launched wuchess.com. Its a partnership with RZA to promote chess as a postive influnece on the youth that look up to rap celebraties.
Well anyway, here we are day 6 heading to show number 5. 1900 miles in and things are going well. The worst part being the 8 hour drive to make it to Salt Lake City today.
Day 1 - Houston
Day 2 - Austin
Day 3 - Dallas
Day 4 - Denver
More coming soon.
