tonight's web search

started with reading sfgate, then had a fluid lead to me buying a Kurt Haley print off of ebay and ended up with a naked clown calendar.

There was a logical flow to getting to each page, I just wish I could recall what that was...

I think this means its time to turn the computer off for the night.

with a cherry on top

Had mediocre chinese food tonight for dinner at a place around the corner from my hotel. Its raining pretty hard, and I have work to do tonight so I didn't want to travel too far. I hopped on yelp, yelped (is that a verb?) the neighborhood and decided on the Chinese place.

boots on, raincoat buttoned, umbrella out. Got to the restaurant. People are very friendly and the place is busy. I order vegetarian spring rolls and orange tofu. Around the restaurant are pictures of various politicians posing with employees and owner.

I'm not the biggest Chinese food fan. I enjoy it from time to time, but definitely don't get pee pants over it. I wouldn't say I was a Chinese food snob, until tonight. We are spoiled living in the Bay Area, and take the Chinese food for granted.

I had, easily, the worst spring rolls of my life. it had this flavored tofu in it that was awful.

The orange tofu was much better. In fact it was on the good side of okay. Not pee pants good, but good. it was served with a pile of shredded iceberg lettuce and a maraschino cherry on the top of the lettuce pile.

Leaving the restaurant, I look over to the wall of photos, and notice one of Hilary Clinton. My immediate thought was not "oh hey, its hilary and she ate here!". My immediate thought was "she apparently didn't have the spring rolls".

I'm a Chinese food snob.

On a mission

I love Saturday Night Live. An avid fan since I was a kid, I have a vast knowledge of random quotes from the show dating back to the 80's. I'm trying to locate a video of a sketch called "Jackie Rogers Jr.'s $100,000 Jackpot Wad"

Here is the transcript:

I've gotten teases from YouTube but each video has been pulled.... HELP!!!! Some of my favorite (most random) SNL quotes are from this sketch!

By the way, this website is pretty awesome: http://snlarc.jt.org/

Awesome

So excited... I forgot what it was like to be hopeful going into a new administration.

No on 8

I'm not an outwardly political person. I have my beliefs and my issues I advocate for, and after 3 years of law school, I certainly hope that I can argue/advocate my position on an issue effectively if called upon. I respect people's opinions and evaluate their viewpoint and knowledge in determining my own. However, one point of view I cannot get my arms around is those of people who will vote yes on Prop 8. After all our history, and progression, it amazes me that there are people out there who will deny others the choice to marry based solely on their sexual orientation. Our country and laws prevent discrimination on gender, disability and race, but yet will allow discrimination on sexual orientation? It makes no sense to me. Vote No on Prop 8.
