Route 66: University of Missouri at Columbia

Route 66: University of Missouri at Columbia

The evening started off with CiCi’s Pizza and then we got into it. The University of Missouri group was intimate. Stella, the young writer from Singapore who I met on the street came by. It was good to see her. Everyone was a character and it showed when they participated in the on-stage games, comments, [...]

Route 66: Oklahoma University

Route 66: Oklahoma University

One of the items on the Route 66 is choose something to master and practice every day. I’ve been thinking about what I want to master over the course of the tour. I have 5 months. I chose two things—pool and motivation. I love pool. I had a table when I was at UCLA and [...]

Route 66: University of New Mexico

Route 66: University of New Mexico

On my flight from Boise to Albuquerque, I met a 70-year old couple from Dallas. Their names were Dave and Barabara. I usually take the first window seat I see when boarding and they happened to be in the third row on the right, but the window seat was open. The conversation started with me [...]

Route 66: UC Davis

Route 66: UC Davis

While I was in Oakland, I got to see my mom, dad, step mom, god mother, and cousins. It was good to be home. I hadn’t been home in so long that I forgot the house alarm code and it went off. Luckily, my dad answered when I called him and he told me over [...]

Route 66: UC San Diego

Route 66: UC San Diego

I caught a bus down from Los Angeles. It was cheaper and faster than flying when you add the travel to the airport, waiting to board, boarding, flying, waiting for luggage, and then the taxi ride from the airport to campus. I left LA at 7:30am and got to campus by 10am. When I arrived [...]

Route 66 at Cal State Fullerton

I had two days off…or better yet two day between presentations. I turned Angelo’s living room into the Department of Motivated Vehicles head quarters and went to work. I focused my energy on two major projects—A $250K Pepsi Refresh Everything Grant for the Route 66 Tour and learning Dabble DB (similar to Microsoft Access, but [...]

Route 66 Tour at UC Irvine

Route 66 Tour at UC Irvine

Yesterday was amazing. First and foremost I got to see my youngest brother, Patrick. It had been a while so it was good to break bread and reconnect. I thought that he was letting college slip away, but I discovered that he is the third ranked person in his fraternity and he is working on [...]

Route 66 Tour at UCLA

Route 66 Tour at UCLA

It was great to return to my alma mater and deliver the NSCS Route 66 Tour presentation again. I delivered it in October at the NSCS induction when we were just testing the concept. What’s amazing is that yesterday was literally 7 months from the day I opened the conversation with NSCS. On June 11th, [...]
