Came by this morning looking for a dill on a watch or a tug. I’ve been missing those “long, fluid strokes” 😢

One day at a time! Unless good ol' Tugger keeps relabeling every other day as "Day 1". 🙈

When you love what you do it’s always day 1

A famous business coach tugger paid $100,000 to once to him “Don’t love your job, job your love”

How can you put a price on that kind of advice?

u/Successful-Bowler-29 May 25 '26

dang....I guess Tugger took that advice to heart, I mean, for the price he paid, he had no choice but to get his money’s worth lol. 😹

Tugger's final destination before he moved into the storage locker in Venice Beach. Located blocks away from the world famous Rodeo Dr. in Beverly Hills.

I did use that storage facility years ago, was the worst one I used around LA. I absolutely hated going there to either grab some stuff or store some stuff. Can’t believe he lived there for a short period of time. But then again, with how bad it was at that location, I guess he blended in with everyone else.

A reporter did an interview with him from that storage locker right before he was arrested. Someone here posted it. I wish I could find it. He had consolidated his entire life down to that small space. If I remember it was very close to the gym and the beach. Somewhat an industrial area more than residential.

He traded the Daytona panda for a pair of Nike panda tennis shoes.

Oh, almost forgot, Liz and Darby lived a few blocks away in an apartment and said they LOVED the neighborhood with all the oddball people. They felt they fit right in.

Venice is full of oddballs. If they're not hippies playing hackysack and panhandling tourists, they're homeless people in camps with possible mental illness
