found this electronics outlet through some price searching site. looks to be only a couple of blocks away. i doubt its a user friendly store but looks better than wholesale liquidators on broadway.
Andrew Tyndall on McNeil/Lehrer tonight.
hain celestial is half the packaged health food market.
snow?!
majors to start movies available for download on dvd release date but the price structure needs work.

we ate awesome octopus in fried dough (aka arepa) in a fish market (shack) which is only open on weekends when the locals head to the beaches. buy beer from the small bar two doors down and grab some stools at the counter facing the water. great water views. it’s on route 987 near the marina on the way to seven seas/las croabas beach.
possibly the best chicken we ever had we bought from a man on the side of the road near our house. wow. lots of roadside pig and chicken being cooked, but again only weekends.
in fajardo, we had one *amazing* meal of fresh yellowtail snapper for lunch, but another meal there was just ok. they’re closed wednesdays and our best meal there was lunch on a thursday. maybe they spend wednesdays fishing?
in luquillo, we had a lot of fun on a friday night at victor’s place, right on the town square. some locals making music at the bar, great bartender, she makes a good rum drink. the food was mostly very good, some just ok. get the conch asopao (sort of like gumbo, traditional pr dish).
avoid sandy’s at all costs, which for some bizarre reason is supposedly the most popular luquillo restaurant. OUCH.
one place we wanted to get to but by the time we found out about it ryley was fairly burnt out on restaurants was in the mountains. supposedly pre-9/11 they used to get a lot of people flying in on heliocopter to eat the locally grown produce and meats. closed mon/tues. the views are supposed to be some of the finest as its in a mountain park. name is La Piedra in Aibonito, 1+ hour south of San Juan
another place that gave a good vibe going south on the east coast is truilo’s seafood in the area of punta santiago. heavy garlic but very classic and full of locals. we read about this too late to go but i bet its yummy, and the drive is fun and "local", pigs served roadside on that road
As for San Juan food, we dont know, I would just Google arround, lots of new places some I bet are good, some I bet are not, cant help...
peace

Any advice on things to do, places to eat in Puerto Rico? We're staying east of San Juan, near El Yunque National Park, but I want to get into San Juan.
we recently bought a new painting. this guy was a baker by day and an obsessive creative type by night. i think all of his paintings were made in a day. i also love the photos of his wife, marie, some of which you can see on the feigen website. and check out the chicken bone chairs. a second one we bought:
i'm all for synthetic corks for wine, but i can never get them back in the bottle, and i've spent some infuriating minutes trying to shove one back inside. must i invest in some kind of goofy wine stoppers so that my vino keeps?
going to see john waters perfom a one-man show tonight. no word yet if foam dispensers will be part of the act.
is it just me or has google removed "cache" and "similar pages" from their search results? similar pages was worthless but i liked the highlighted results from cache.
maybe im just predisposed to foam, but this might be a fun device to have around.
barber shop now on usa
this is probably the best show for kids i've seen
the bushes cant even be magnanimous without trying to find a way to line their pockets. the word "shamelessness" would be ashamed to be associated with the lot of them. if only theyd turn around, im sure theyd turn to salt. barbara may already have. someone ought to lick her and find out. on second thought...no, one thought was already too much.
heres my linkless tv ticker except for this preview of next years pilots.
