I thought I saw Tu Cao yesterday. Of course, my process of thought went like this: Hm. Cute girl. Oh, wait, she looks familiar. She looks like, um, that girl that hung around with Ace. Och, I cannae remember her name. Waitaminute. Ace wasn’t his real name. It was... Roderick. She looks like that friend of Roderick’s, only darker-complected. Is that a word? [ed: it is] Oh, wait, is it really her? [giving her several puzzled looks] Maaaaaybe. [She smiles at me, nudges my arm, goes around, and up the stairs to the main floor of Penn Station.] Wow, nice smile. Kinda presumptuous. Um, oops, gotta catch my subway. [Six hours later:] Roderick... Romero. Tu Cao! Damn. I should have given her my card. (No relation to the Sky Cries Mary lead) 6:06:16 PM    comment []

Are there any vector graphic maps? I mean, come on! Is there anything more kludgy than hitting zoom a couple of times to get a completely different picture on Mapquest or Yahoo! Maps each time for the same coordinates? It’s insane. 5:27:39 PM    comment []
