Occasionally, being food-adventurous has its drawbacks. I went out to the local sushi bar last night thinking sashimi would work with the Atkins diet, and got snookered in by the tiger shrimp tataki they had on the special board. Four limp, soggy gray uncooked shrimp mixed in with wilted lettuce and raw onions, seasoned with a sauce that tasted like dirt and had bits of what I'm pretty sure was cork scattered throughout. Ugh. Though the manager did comp me a beef tataki dish that—while about four steps undercooked for my liking—at least didn't give the impression that someone had found it under a rock in their garden.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I got chicken makhani instead.
Where?

Google is God
I'm not sure how I feel about a deity being a publically-traded company. Generally speaking, godhead + profit motive = something Borgia-flavored, and not in a good way.
Also, if Google is god, does that mean all their employees are priests? Is the company salad bar the garden of Eden??
...man, I could make those jokes all day.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

And what about all those pigeons? Are they holy animals?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Where?
Diwan-E-Khaas II on Nassau and Maiden Ln. I think there might be a Diwan-E-Khaas I closer to you, though.

Thanks for the tip, Tom. I am always looking for some good chicken makhni. One of the Diwan delivers via seamlessweb, I think.

Where would we go to to find the answers to these questions? Hmm....

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
But has Google created anything?
