Getting Past the '60s? It's Not Going to Happen


Good flashback on the reactionaries who are so often forgotten. Here's one I'll never get over:

"If it takes a bloodbath, let's get it over with." California Governor Ronald Reagan, April 7, 1970, in reference to using state violence to suppress protests at UC Berkeley.

skinny's been cooking some amazing heirloom beans from this place. yum!
dumpling house on eldridge underwent a reno over new years and i just paid them my first visit. id often go to the dumpling place on allen because it was quicker and less chaotic. its still quicker but the food is undeniably better and the menu is more expansive on eldridge and now theyve mitigated some of the chaos by adding a numbered check system. no more elbowing for space at the counter and hoping to get served. plus they added another storefront so its spacious (by comparison) and the kitchen is much larger so the food prep is faster. all this did not come without a cost however as dumplings are now 4 for $1 instead of 5. normally id howl at such price gouging but ill wait until the move to 3 for a buck.

now ive got to go. my roast pork noodle soup is getting cold.
While sitting at your desk lift your right foot off the ground and start making clockwise circles with it. Now raise your right hand in the air and draw the number 6. Your foot will switch to making counter clockwise circles.

Huh? Found here.

They hired Dr Larry Brilliant.....and what did he do in the past??
Dr for the Greatful Dead in the 60's/70's, worked for WHO in India on a successful smallpox-eradication programme, created Seva (with some help from the G Dead) helped 3M people to not go blind, CEO of two public firms, and was co-founder of The Well.

Looking forward to what they can do!!
