Below the "No AQ" Line

Once asked to join the gang down at the Breton Bay beach cottage a few years ago, our friend, LL, declined the invitation and remarked that it was "south of the no Asian line". It was certainly true Saturday night at the Happy Dragon restaurant where the only Asians were the ones working there. The entire restaurant was full of "Kaw Dangs" (aka Cuello Rojos), except for me, of course. A yummy meal, but I never thought I'd feel out of place at a Chinese restaurant!!!

One of the big topics discussed today on talk radio was Bob Woodruff. Check out Crusher's Journal for some commentary. I didn't know anything about this story when I initially read Chris' blog and I left a generic comment. After further thought, I wondered why I do feel somewhat ambivalent towards Iraq and that region. I've never been particularly interested in government or politics or war. I haven't figured it all out yet, but know that I do feel sad for the families of all the folks killed every day for a cause I don't fully understand. My friends who are more politically minded will probably provide their thoughts and I look forward to it.

I meant to post the following picture a while ago... it's the iPod case I made that's too small for mine. It still needs to be sewn up. I could probably frog it and salvage a good portion of the yarn to make one that will fit.



That's all for now... looking forward to the BIG GAME this Sunday. Not sure where we'll be, but I'll keep you posted!
