Tidbits

  • Sleepover at Ikea - Maybe this is the only way to get to the $1 early enough…

  • A ramen bath - Japanese spa with special baths resembling instant noodles.  I wanna play!

  • Old age homes for dogs - 1) Old dogs don’t like to be abandoned at strange places.  2) Playing with young puppies will probably cause the older dogs to die faster due to exhaustion.

  • A remote-controlled pigeon - Oh the poor thing…

  • An article on a brilliant method of teaching grade schoolers about bats and rabies.  I smell a lawsuit.

  • Will trade beer for Crumpler bags.  Tempted by the beanbag and messenger bags…

So I ended up going to Pico last weekend afterall.  I’m glad I did, as it was a lot of fun, and the house was still standing when we got back.  We left Friday night, and got back Monday night, if you would call 4am arrival times “night”. …

China: The Joys of Food

November 04, 2006 | Photography, Travels |

The common things that people say about China is how cheap everything is, including the food. However, it is also my experience that no matter how cheap the food is, and how much variety there are, you just can’t bring yourself to eat it. Or perhaps your stomach can’t…
