Caught the closing ceremonies of the Olympics on Sunday night. It was quite a show with China participating with a show of martial arts, Chinese culture, and really pretty girls with very short short skirts. My girlfriend noted just how short they were. Somehow those skirts cheapened the performance in my opinion.

Anyhow, other thoughts: I went to dinner with echangster the other night at a new Taiwanese restaurant on 8th Avenue between Clement and California. Man, the chicken dish we ordered there packs a wallop. Basically it's fried chicken pieces packed in a mountain of red hot peppers. Our tongues were burning and no amount of water seemed to quench the fire. See echangster's xanga site for a pic (he hasn't put it up yet but I was assured that he will...)
