Finding Me
It seems that a couple of years ago I did some class work while attending UCSB that ended up contributing to this website, but I don’t remember doing anything special. I sure as hell know that Brian didn’t either! Holy crap, I don’t remember compiling this! I am also currently listed on this page. But … Continue reading
24 Days
Until I am on my way back to California! Time is flying, but I want that Alerto’s carne asada burrito now! I wonder: Will I have reverse culture shock when I get back? Will Orange County smell foreign? Will driving on the 405 seem like jumping to ludacris speed? Will Justin or I drift onto … Continue reading
Am I missing anything?

One day Steve went to soccer, and so we (which was usually me and Brian) seized an opportunity to pick on him. We 1. took … Continue reading

It sounded like a sure thing. So I went into a barbershop in downtown Kumamoto, where the barbers are … Continue reading
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.
Diced Burglar With Wu Shu Sauce
While reading Angry Asian Man‘s blog, I ran across this story. It really reminds me of Free Satpal Ram on ADF’s Rafi’s Revenge album. It is probably a bad idea to have a knife fight with an acupuncturist, especially the one known as “The Doctor.” I think that he should be honored for taking care … Continue reading
