I Am Legend

Last Saturday F1 & I nipped out to catch ‘I Am Legend’. I’d been looking forward to it all week, because a) Will Smith action movies are usually pretty good, and b) I was interested to see how the movie would go with just one [human] character. Prior to that we had dinner with Ross… Read more

Gah, I’m old!

Last… what was it, Friday? Yes, Friday, F1, Ross & I went up to some random party at Stanford, of Peter’s. I was looking forward to it during the week, because I was optimistic it’d be good and there’d actually be people my age there. More or less, anyway. In a nutshell is was perfectly… Read more

Strike!

My group went bowling today at the Strike on Wolfe. It’s been there for a while now, and I’ve always been intrigued, but I wasn’t sure if it’d be anything like the Australian ones, or what the clientelle would be like (knowing Cupertino :( )… anyway, turns out it’s much like the Australian ones, excepting… Read more

King’s Head

Last night I went out with the Francisco’s, Ross, Emily, Bob & Kevin, to the King’s Head down in Campbell. It was an abrupt decision – F2 messaged me at 9:45pm or somesuch. At first we were going to go to the Cardiff Lounge, which looked (from the photos & description online) suspiciously like one… Read more

Harold & Kumar go to Dunkin Donuts

Last night Ross, F1 & I sketched out the next Harold & Kumar movie. It starts out when two of our three protagonists come to believe there is a Dunkin Donuts franchise somewhere in the valley, towards which they set off, and many mad escapades are had. As it turns out, however, the nearest Dunkin… Read more
