June is DEAD

Friday, June 30th, 2006 by bigjoe

Whereas (1) Joung-Mo is getting his yearly Massachusetts auto inspection; (2) Willie is giving a much-dreaded presentation; (3) Christopher is nurturing his visceral hatred of blogs while buying golfing supplies; (4) Elina is growing people; (5) Twiggy is undoubtedly hatching a dastardly plot involving fish oil and dried fruit; (6) Jen-Jen is still missing and presumed married; (7) Joey is wasting time waiting for things to download; (8) Use Your Illusion II is a great album; Be it therefore resolved that this post is only here to annoy chekmate if he reads it.

TOKYO DRIFT!!!

Monday, June 26th, 2006 by annie

Wow, chekkie is posting on (well, commenting on, and therefore reading) mantisblog, finally!

Mokang was in SF yesterday, then left. Everyone loves coming to San Francisco! Then everyone leaves San Francisco. I guess it’s just that kind of place. Anyway Mo is still gay, which explains why he was in town for the LGBT celebration weekend. Sadly we missed the Dyke March. So sad.

TOKYO DRIFT!!! was surprisingly slightly worse than expected due to blah characters, painfully bad lines, and an even more painful slow start. Skip to the second half and it will be okay. Or skip it altogether… for whatever reason it’s actually much worse than the first two. TOKYO!!!

DRINK, DON’T DRIVE!!! YAY!

The longest…

Saturday, June 24th, 2006 by willie

So this is suppose to be the longest day of the year.. but like most blogs/posts/online shitbag editorials, im not going to check that shit out and just assume that its true. Lost Dogs rocks.. by far the best thing out in the last ten years, sorry Chekkie, youll still have to listen to old Sarah. USA futbol sucks. I like the new formum pretty, coolio. Whats the dilly yo. Shit, was playing SC last night and it took me a fucking hour to beat 2 comps ( terran and Zerg) on rosewood.. which reminds me of the good ole days… so .. any takers are welcome! Peace out.

Freeze Dried Strawberries

Monday, June 19th, 2006 by twiggy

Pros:

  • Taste like candy. Yummy.
  • Low calorie. A big 3 cup serving is only about 130 calories.
  • Does not go bad.

Cons:

  • Kind of bad for the teeth. If you snack on them… acid eats the teeth and they get stuck in your teeth too. It’s been a 3 out of 4 person occurence of teeth sensitivity after heavy snacking on these things.
  • The freeze dried-ness of them also makes them fragile and prone to crumble. Now that I’m at the bottom of my first can I must figure out a way to consume freeze dried strawberry powder. Still tasty but not so convenient as a snack.

I bought big cans of strawberries here: They are cheaper than “Trader Joe’s” by bulk… go with the case of freeze dried strawberries.

dae-han min gook!

Shit. This here is mo and I am just getting up around 3pm local time. Do you know what Koreans get like when the World Cup happens? I can safely say I will never ever witness a group of sports fans more fanatical again. I went in front of city hall in Seoul around 10pm last night to get a space to watch the 4am(!!) game against France - completely insane! (TONS of hot k-girls here btw, if that’s your thing). It’s also cool to see how nice and organized everyone is about something like this - in the US you’d have cops yelling at everybody and probably idiots getting themselves hurt. Here you climb over everyone like crazy, and in the end everyone picked up the trash around them and left. Anyway, though the odss were against us, our “everlasting energy” came through and korea tied the score in the 81st minute…the place went totally b**f*** nuts! This is like 5:30am mind you, after getting there 8-10pm for most people, and I for one hadn’t been eating or drinking much all night cause going to the bathroom would take an hour. Whee!

Those pics were great btw…that was a really fun trip. We must do it again sometime (sell the kid! sell the kid!! heh)

San Francisco Pictures

Friday, June 16th, 2006 by bigjoe

Hey hey, we’ve put up all the pictures (or nearly all the pictures) from the San Francisco trip. They’re in the photo album. Most of the omitted pictures were near-duplicates or totally failed shots. There were a couple that were removed for “content” reasons. We’ll put those up for your amusement, but they won’t make it in to the album.

These include Mo’s and Chek’s photos as well as Elina’s and mine. Right now these can be identified by filename in the “San Francisco 2006″ album but not in the “Our Wedding” album. When/if we add captions, we’ll credit them a bit more nicely.

Good times, good times…
