Quote of the Day: Ask No Questions, Learn No Lies
MyLuc and I saw "Batman Begins" last night. I really enjoyed the movie. There were some parts that were just so cheesy that I had to laugh out loud. And o'course I had questions to ask MyLuc but he was so involved in the movie he just waved his hand...ask me later. I don't know how many of you have seen the 10 minute trailer but MyLuc downloaded it so I did see a bit beforehand of what the movie entailed. The swordplay on the ice reminded me of the swordplay on the lake in Hero. *shrug* That's me...I have to connect scenes.
We went for sushi afterwards which is our norm. All you can eat and it's normally around $20-$30 and we're stuffed. We ordered...errr...actually MyLuc let me order. We ended up with 5 pieces of Amaebi, Tuna and Salmon, Four Tuna Sushi (on rice), 6 each of California Roll, Kappa Maki (Cucumber) and Dynamite Roll and Prawn and Veggie Tempura. I also ordered an Ebi Sunomono. I normally would have ordered Gomaee but this particular restaurant doesn't have it on the menu. We ate it all. Well actually, MyLuc finished partway through and just sat back and watched me it. It was quite disconcerting and I almost finished...almost but not quite...I couldn't eat my portion of the Tuna Sushi - too fishy (weird eh) and one of the Amaebi, it had too much masago on it. *shuddeer* fish eggs on prawn *shrug*
As I read the above I realize I know a whack about Sushi and Sashimi and all the other things you can normally order in a Japanese restaurant. It's weird, before I moved to Vancouver in 1997 I hadn't even had sushi, thought it was gross and now, I have cravings at least twice a month...which of course get satisfied when MyLuc and I have date night (movie and sushi) and we meet up with his parents and sis n' her fiance for sushi. My Mom wouldn't even....it's too funny but I can't eat cooked fish...or barely and here I am chowing down on the raw stuff. Times and tastes sure change over the years.
I had to add this next part..it was sooo cute...and sooo true:
7 reasons not to mess with a child
A little girl: was talking to her teacher about whales.The teacher: said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small.
The little girl: stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.Irritated, the teacher: reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible.
The little girl: said, "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah".The teacher: asked, " What if Jonah went to hell?"The little girl: replied, "Then you ask him".

A Kindergarten teacher: was observing her classroom of children while they were drawing. She would occasionally walk around to see each child's work.
As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the drawing was.The girl: replied, "I'm drawing God."
The teacher: paused and said, "But no one knows what God looks like."
Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing, the girl: replied, "They will in a minute."

A Sunday school teacher: was discussing the Ten Commandments with her five and six year olds.After explaining the commandment to "honor" thy Father and thy Mother, she asked, "Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?"
Without missing a beat one little boy: (the oldest of a family) answered, "Thou shall not kill."

One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother had several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head.She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, "Why are some of your hairs white, Mom?"Her mother replied, "Well, every time that you do something wrong and make me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white."
The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and then said, "Momma, how come ALL of grandma's hairs are white?"

The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture.Just think how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say, 'There's Jennifer, she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor.'
A small voice at the back of the room rang out, "And there's the teacher, She's dead. "

A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the blood. Trying to make the matter clearer, she said, "Now, class, if I stood on my head, the blood, as you know, would run into it, and I would turn red in the face.."
"Yes," the class said."Then why is it that while I am standing upright in the ordinary position the blood doesn't run into my feet?"A little fellow shouted,"Cause your feet ain't empty."

The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a note, and posted on the apple tray:"Take only ONE. God is watching."
Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies.A child had written a note, "Take all you want. God is watching the apples.
