Quick Thoughts

Quick thoughts: "I'm addicted to placebos. I'd quit, but it wouldn't matter."

Alex, my four year old, making a pronouncement: " "I can say ketchup now. Ketchup. Also W. W. " Us: How about color yeah o? "Not yet."
Tribes has a cool decor, upscale look, very good mojitos and loud, awful pop music on an impressive tv.
Add another thing to the list I love about Filipinas. They are so short that I'm not particularly short in comparison.
Wild Bill's has some damn good Thai food. Thai food kicks ass, and I dont' eat it often enough.

Swimming with turtles, as I just did at Lau Lau, is invigorating.
Surfacing at Lau Lau at sunset after a dive is equally stunning. I don't appreciate the beauty of this island enough. I also saw a couple of big sharks at Obyan on Sunday.
Tina Sablan won. Thank God. In sports terms, this is drafting defense, not offense. The best thing Tina will be able to do is to shine a great big spotlight on all the nonsense that goes on up there. She might be able to create enough shame to stop awful things. If there are a few more draft picks like her in the next elections, then we'll have an offense. Tina alone can't be the 85 Chicago Bears, but this is a sniper like start into the battle to respectability.
