  • Heads up, it’s National Dark Sky Week. Why? So you can see stuff in the sky. Congratulations to my Uncle Jimmy, who just had a gym named after him. It was proposed to the Board of Education back in January (see page 2). Check out page 2 in the minutes. It was approved by a…

  • Man, I always thought only old people watched PBS. Now I’ve joined their ranks. I was watching their special on the Chinese experience in America. Even though I received a minor in Asian American Studies, I learned things I didn’t know before from watching part of that program. So I’m Asian American. Many people would…

    My new desktop:

  • The Oscars

    We watched the Oscars tonight. It’s always fun to watch it with people and comment on everything. One of the things that was instituted was a 5-name rule. Thank goodness, because for the viewers, that’s the worst part of watching the show.

  • You know our world is a different place when MTV conducts profiles on “celebrities” like military leader Tommy Franks.

  • Woohoo! I got my computer fixed, finally. It’s given me so much grief these past couple years. My friend Johnny had to wipe out everything and start from scratch. Now I have to find a way to get the old programs back. Anyways, now that I’m back online for good now, let’s see what I…

  • War

    Operation Kill Saddam has begun. But of course, we kind and thoughtful Americans dare not call it by that name. Instead, we will call it something else, like Operation Desert Protect or something heroic like that. How about Operation Oil Control? I just got the following message from someone on AIM: this is sent to…

  • Coldness

    No matter how high I turn up the heat, or how long I leave the heater on, it still doesn’t feel warm to me. What’s the deal? I wonder if I have cement underneath, since I’m on the first floor. Maybe it’s the draft coming through from underneath the bathroom sink. Side note: Sacrod has…

  • I was awaken this morning and was told that my car window was broken. I knew they must have gone for my stereo. And sure enough, when I got outside, there was glass everywhere and my stereo was gone. It took me a while to file a police report and an insurance claim. Don’t they…

  • If you have too much time on your hands, check out this Splish Splash Video. Side note: No more TV after 10pm starting today. Boo… Hopefully I’ll get more reading and quiet time in at night.

  • I was talking to my friend yesterday and I realized that there’s so many things happening in the next few months. I have to go to BASS, the Bay Area Sunday School Convention, although, I’m not sure which workshops I’ll be attending. There’s also a Navigator’s Seminar on April 12th. I thought that was good…

  • Check out the SF International Asian American Film Festival if you’re in the area.

  • Cartoon

    An energy release for students?

  • Audio post

    Wow, check out that audio post! That’s weird. Too bad they charge $3 a month for that service. Seeing that I’m a cheapie, I probably won’t continue with that after the trial offer expires.

  • It’s a sad, sad day in the neighborhood. I loved watching Mister Rogers, especially the train that went into the land of make-believe. I agree with Cindy and that I think that show was one of the best kid shows ever, better than Barney or anything like that.

  • I finally got a DVD player, so I borrowed a few DVD’s from my friend. I’ve watched The Bourne Identity and Chocolat. I’ve wanted to see these 2 movies for a long time now. I like Chocolat a lot, but one of my guy friends (whose name starts with a G and ends in ordon)…

  • It’s been 3 days and I’m still sore. Last Saturday, I went dragon boating with my friend. I basically went to practice with the Dragon Warriors. Boy am I sore. My arms are fine. It’s my lower back and gluteal muscles that are paying for the past few months of inactivity. Come to think of…

  • For Mimi, so that she can get the hooded sweater for Calvin (too bad they only have those in the women’s section): jcrew.com Enter coupon code RPS-0103. Random quote in my head: (From The Shawshank Redemption) “Get busy livin’ or get busy dyin’.”

  • Rock shopping

    For the past couple days, I’ve been out ring shopping with my friend, who’s up here from San Diego. (The ring’s for him, not me.) Anyhoo, we went to the gift center where he found a rock he liked. He’s getting the mounting made to look like one from Verragio because that’s what the girl…
