… in bed! (o_O);;

December 27, 2006 11:42 pm

One of the more immature things my friends and I usually indulge ourselves in at Chinese resturants is playing word games with our fortune cookies. I only recently became aware of the practice, but apparently it is quite widespread. Per Wikipedia: There is a common joke involving fortune cookies that involves appending “in bed”, “with a battle axe” or “between the sheets” to the end of the fortune, usually creating a sexual innuendo or other bizarre messages (e.g., “Every exit is an entrance to new experiences [in bed]” or “You will solve your greatest problem [with a battle axe]“

Take for example the following:

“You could prosper in the field of medical research.. in bed” — not too bad, worth a chuckle. Things kinda go wrong when you get this as a fortune..

Merry Christmas!

Like the title says, Merry Christmas. Consider this a Christmas card, since I think it’s bad netiquette to send those e-greeting cards via email. It’s a nice gesture, but you’re just signing up your friends for spam!

Believe it or not, it’s a cake, not a log. Mmmm creme filled log..

I think the Wii is going to be a success if it draws a crowd like this all over the world..

Marilyn's Birthday (^_^)//

December 18, 2006 10:21 pm

Things go well, especially when there is wine involved. Thanks to Jen at jdawg.net, I had a surplus of wine, that thankfully went to a good cause — Marilyn’s Birthday. I’ve added photos from her party to the December Gallery. There’d be more but when there is a competing camera in the capable hands of someone like Faithy, it’s difficult for an amateur like me to get all the good shots.

It's good to be elite.

More photos are due, but for now, this is it. Thanks to Faithy, I got an invite to Yelp’s Holiday Party at the California Academy of Sciences. Not only thanks, we had elite access, and got to go in hours earlier than the common folk. With an open bar and awesome food catered by some awesome restaurants, it was probably the best time I’ve had at one of these kinds of parties. Great crowd.

I thought Hondas are supposed to be reliable. (^_^);;

Maybe Asimo just had a little too much to drink.

Sheldon's Birthday Party (^_^)//

Happy birthday wishes to Sheldon, who obviously had a great time. I’m not sure what’s going on in this series of photos. Be careful to not let your guard down. Even Anna will get you. Here’s the gallery.

@ House of Prime Rib, those books aren’t just props, they’re real.
