Oh, Foo

There is nothing to eat where I live. There is a s-wanky restaurant under my building called Rice which has some really good um, fru-fru dishes. It's just not the sort of thing I want to eat all the time. To get anything else I have to walk a few blocks to Brooklyn Heights where on Henry Street I have a pretty good choice of eats.

So, they have been opening all these new stores on my block. The thing is they are pretty useless to my stomach (a frame shop?). Imagine my excitement when I saw they opening another new store under my building.

I guess I am guilty of stereotyping because I saw a bunch of Asian people coming in and out of it this week and hoped it was going to be a (Chinese|Japanese|Korean|*) restaurant. I walked by tonight and there was a sign in the window -- “Coming Soon: Flower Shop” "frown"

Thank You

Props to Peter Jackson for not giving in to idiotic pressure and keeping the title The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers instead of changing it to something less "9/11 offensive."

I don't understand why people are trying to erase all traces of the WTC. It was a wonderful structure that met a horrible end. That does not mean we have to edit it out of every TV series opening sequence and pussy-foot around anything that even alludes to it.

That said, I will be in line for LotR:TTT Saturday night.
