From geek to chef

From geek to chef 09/14/2004 12:46 PM
This past May, when I decided to go on sabbatical I wrote that I needed a break because: I had no perspective on anything, I was so deep into my world of weblogs and tech that I didn't have much sense of what was going on outside of my geek circles... I've been burning my candle at both ends for years now, and decided it was time to stop. Emotionally I was drained. Physically I was drained. But that wasn't the full truth of it, because there was something I'd been feeling that I wasn't quite able to admit. It's taken me several months of time away from computers and tech and geeks to accept the fact that computers and technology are not my passion. My interest in the web and tech was always more about people. With weblogs, it was making it possible for everyone to write online and share and communicate. And while I was doing it, I really did care very deeply about my work -- the products we were creating, the people for whom they were built, and the people who worked with me to build them. As my career progressed, I pushed myself to be more visible as a technology speaker, dabbled at freelance writing, and started another tech company. But something was always missing, and I've realized that was true passion for what I was doing. So last night I ended my sabbatical and began my new career doing something I've always felt passionate about: cooking. I'm working in the kitchen of a restaurant called Fifty-Six Union (mentioned at the bottom of thisFeasting on Nantucket article) here on Nantucket. Yesterday at 3 PM I put on my black chef's clogs, my black pants and white t-shirt, pulled my Red Sox cap over my hair and got to work peeling and deveining shrimp. Seven hours later, sweatily scrubbing the kitchen floors, I was still smiling. I've learned a lot this summer during my sabbatical but it all can be summarized in three words: follow your heart.

Q&A with Patti Smith

Q&A with Patti Smith 04/01/2005 12:24 PM
Xeni Jardin: Newsweek's Brian Braiker interviews the high priestess of punk, Patti Smith. She is my idol. I am her biggest fan EVAR, and have been since, like, age 12. If there is an emoticon for bowing, consider it inserted. Snip:

What’s your take on the possible closure of CBGB?
Patti Smith: I have various thoughts on it. I have the Jackie Onassis spirit of preservation of our historic architecture. One of the things that has drawn so many people down to the Bowery area—the people living there and the housing and shops and all of the revitalization of that area—was CBGB. In those days the Bowery was skid row, there was nothing there but bums. People just didn’t go there. It wasn’t real dangerous; it was winos and hobos. They set the big trash cans on fire at night so they could warm

What does the club mean to you?
I went down there on Easter 1974, [guitarist] Lenny Kaye and I went there to see [the rock band] Television, and there were about 11 people there. It was like a dream come true, the whole situation. It was a little bar, there weren’t any grown-ups; you didn’t feel that the mafia was there. You weren’t forced to drink expensive stuff you didn’t want. And Television was a revelation. It was for me a pivotal night of my life, walking into CBGB and seeing Television. It resonated all the possibilities of our youth, what we were doing, what we were attempting to do.

What was that?
Our philosophy was that rock and roll should be a cultural voice and not glamorized. It didn’t belong to the rich and famous; it belonged to the people. It was the perfect place for us to excite each other and incite people and develop what we were doing. It’s sad for me to see CBGB’s close down because it really hasn’t changed at all, that’s the other beautiful thing. The same murals are up on the wall. It hasn’t gotten any better. The sound system hasn’t really gotten much better. The smell hasn’t gotten much better. It’s the same place. Actually I think Lenny and I are going to play there on May Day. It’s just a little job. We’re just going to play to thank CBGB’s, thank the walls, thank the stage. We’re just doing it to touch those walls again.

That reminds me, I need to buy several of his...
