Not Helpin’ The Cause
I just know that this animation was made with a couple of geeky E.S. majors (is this repetitive?) from UCSB. Funny, I now feel like eating some milkfed veal stuffed with foiegras. In a related note,maybe I don’t need to go to Korea, maybe I only need to go to Panda Express to eat dog.
Oolong Sky
Shanghai was a great place, but the smog was thick, thicker than that of L.A., reminiscent of the muddy contents of the erlenmeyer flask that my high school chemistry teacher used to demonstrate how particles stay suspended in colloids (like jello or anything that you add to an agar/water mixture).

All everyone was asking was “so, when do we eat it?” and when I told them that we don’t eat jack o lanterns after we carve them, they replied “Hmmmm… I think that … Continue reading
