Fast Times in San Fran
Once again, long time, no post. Yet, the dam of thoughts have overflown and I couldn’t resist another post. 1. A glimpse of Asia in San Francisco.

In fact support and…… Continue reading The War in Iraq

Master James, I got your new phone number and phone-mail. One of these days we are going to have to drag Horacio away from his girlfriend, find Naoko and get to Karaoke. It’s been too long. Anyway, I was extremely bored last weekend, and came up with an idea. I made a website where international young…… Continue reading E-mail to James 1.14.2004
