I am staying very busy with job applications, phone calls, emails and exploring Dallas. I go to bed exhausted at the end of the day which means I know I'm putting in the best effort I can to turn over all the stones in my endeavor.
I seriously can't believe the people I've been meeting, it's incredible, there is so much going on here in Dallas.
Romain, a froggy French Parisian police officer showed up yesterday and he's obsessed with food, cars, shoes, guns, and knives. His English is pretty bad, and he's one of the few Frenchman who loves the American lifestyle.
August is a 45 year old Polynesian Dutch guy who is ripped like a mack truck. He's a personal trainer and boxer and came to Dallas to go to the huge boxing title fight between his hero, Pacquiao, and Clottey from Africa. They are going to bout in the new amazing Cowboy's stadium on Saturday. He is obsessed with this guy and went to the press conference yesterday at the stadium and got to meet all the legendary trainers, boxers, and promoters including Jerry Jones. He is in heaven because he got Pacquiao's autograph and even talked to one of the promoters and got a press pass for the fight! He can't believe how awesome this country is. I didn't even know who Pacquiao was two days ago, but I'm now a fan. His energy and enthusiasm is infectious.

I also met Jane, a university student who works at a TV station in Cologne, Germany. She is a sweetheart, it's funny how close you can get to someone in just a day or two. I dropped her off at the greyhound station as she continues to travel around Texas and the states.

Went to the Maverick's vs. Nets game last night with Romain who doesn't know jack about basketball. We got some cheap seats and took the train from Irving - which is about 4 times faster and 4 times as cheap as driving, and dropped us off directly in front of American Airlines center - the best NBA venue in the country. This country needs to implement rail travel more. Time to get ready for some college basketball March madness, get ready for spring, get ready for baseball, get ready for progress, get ready for success!
I'm well rested. Morgan's aggressive side is coming out today, failure is not an option. Success takes hard work, and the harder you work the luckier you get.
Holy shit dude. WTF happened to Morgan? I love the positive attitude. Sounds like you're having an awesome adventure for now. I am looking forward to visiting in the fall.
