My New Year's Resolution for 2004... buy more video games!

Haha... I'm planning to get the following games in March:
-MVP Baseball 2004
-Halo 2
-Fuzion Frenzy 2 (best party game on Xbox)

I played Mario Kart last night with my mom, sister, and brother-in-law for about 3 hours.

I wish that game was on Xbox...

You know how a frozen pizza comes with a circular piece of cardboard on the bottom?

When I was in elementary school I used to draw all sorts of strange things on those pieces of cardboard... create my own wheel of fortune, draw a baseball stadium, make my own game with it... now I can't imagine doing anything with it other than throw it away.

Why is it that our imaginations reduce to nothing when we get older?

I haven't done any Christmas shopping yet.

My sister and brother-in-law told me what they want, so I'm gonna go with them to get it when they come to Orange County tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get something for my parents then.

I went back to the restaurant that had the men's restroom sign with a boy urinating in a toilet. I made sure to check out the sign for the women's restroom, and yep, that sign was a picture of a little girl sitting on a toilet.

I wonder how many other public buildings use these signs.

Some of my class people played a 2.5 hour game of Cranium on Friday night. It took so long because we had 5 teams. Sammy Sohn and I won, haha... (Isabel was on our team for most of the game.)

I was somehow able to avoid embarassing myself in the charades, humming, drawing, and sculpting categories. Club Cranium saved me... whenever there was something really obvious that I didn't know, I'd just point to the other teams who knew what to do.

Something happened to my blog on Thursday. I published my last post at the time it says on Thursday, and it showed up on my post template, but it didn't appear on the site until I published this post.

I just got home right now. Since I have to go into work tomorrow, I wasn't planning on turning on the computer.

But subconsciously I did... it took me about 5 seconds to realize that I had turned on my computer.

In fourth grade I remember having a large hole in the sole of my left shoe. One time while I was playing tennis, a few inches of my sock spilled out of the hole.

That hole was so big I could've pulled out my entire sock from the bottom of my shoe.

You know how there's a little stick figure sign in front of a men's bathroom in a public building?

Well, I went to a restaurant with my co-workers last Friday, and the sign to their men's bathroom had a picture of a boy urinating into a toilet.

I didn't get a chance to see what the sign for the women's restroom looked like, but I probably don't want to know.

Betting odds for the 2004 opening day shortstop of the Boston Red Sox, as of this moment in time:

3-2: Nomar Garciaparra
2-1: Alex Rodriguez
4-1: Miguel Tejada
20-1: other

About 6 months ago, I dropped a glass cup on my left big toe, and there was internal bleeding underneath my toenail. My toenail turned black.

As the months have gone by, my nail has grown and now half my toenail looks normal. The outer half is still black, but it's been elevated above the normal half.

It wouldn't take much effort for me to rip off the outer half of my toenail at this point. I thought you'd all like to know.

There are no right or wrong answers in an interview question, but my co-worker's explanation is provided in the comment below.

Today's interview question comes courtesy of one of my co-workers:

Suppose you have 3 walkways in an airport. One of them goes from the entrance to the gates, and the other goes from the gates to the exit. Which direction would you want the 3rd to move?

You don't have to know anything else about this airport in order to get at the response I'm looking for-- so it has nothing to do with if the airport is a hub, where the baggage claim is, or anything else.

I'm not sure if this is true, but I heard this today at church:

Until very recently, women always had the buttons on button-up shirts suitable for left-handed people who dress themselves.

Legend has it that rich women used to have their servants dress them. So it was easier for right-handed servants (who would stand on the opposite side of the shirt) to dress the rich women if the buttons were set up that way.

Men have always had their buttons suitable for right-handed people who dress themselves.

Today marks the one year anniversary of a tremendous battle in FiCB blog history...

A pair of records were established:
Andy Chon: December 4, 2002- 212 hits.
Roy Chung: December 5, 2002- 208 hits.

I wear a sweater, warm-ups, and socks when I go to sleep, and I use 2 blankets. I'm still too cold.

I'm going to wear 2 pairs of socks tonight and see if that makes things any better.

Everytime I go to Subway for lunch, I have a dilemma. The 6 inch sandwich is too small, but the foot-long is too big.

If I get the 6 inch with chips I'm not fully satisfied.
But if I get the foot-long, I'm forcing myself to eat 3 inches that I don't really want to.

I don't really want to save the last 3 inches for later because I'd be too full to eat it as a snack before dinner, and I don't think I'd want it after dinner.

Georgia Dave apparently gets the 6 inch with chips and a cookie... I guess I should try that.
