Forward thinker, Muriel Cooper
AIGA > Muriel Cooper: "'We were in this big room with these teletype machines doing Fortran and there was nothing visual about anything. You had to translate any idea you had into this highly codified symbolic language that didn't make any goddamned sense to me, and I was crazy.' " A lot of people at the lab were lucky enough to have had some influence from her. Reading this article makes me wich I had been around the field earlier.

A weekend in Arizona
This weekend, Jim and I joined Shwang in Arizona for Janet's wedding. It was great fun! We got to see a beautiful bride get married in both American and Mexican custom. Later, we also climbed Squaw Peak in the Phoenix Mountains Preserve, Phoenix, Arizona. Squaw Peak!
For Thanksgiving, my folks came to Boston, so it was very nice to see them. We definitely did Dim Sum and ate at the Hong Kong Eatery, for a taste of the old homeland. :) It was funny that we had a table of four sets of roomies. We also got to have dinner at 'tucci's with Sopps, Shen, Nick, and Zahra.

True Spin: My new favorite show
Doesn't everyone want to know why artists write their songs? It's nice to know the meaning behind the lyrics, like the Police's Every Breath You Take, Duran Duran's Rio and U2's One. My favorite show for the moment is VH1.com : Shows : True Spin. I want to know who Gloria was, and why She Works Hard for her Money! :)

Volkswagons are nice.... and versatile
Autos: "You get an extra point if you can say it. The hot new Volkswagen SUV is called the 'Touareg.' It's pronounced 'tour egg.' The 'a' is silent.
What does it mean? It borrows its name from a nomadic Saharan tribe. Word has it that VW wanted to name it the 'Colorado,' but that had already been trademarked by General Motors. So instead of naming it the Arizona or the Delaware or the Minnesota, it went with the name of that old Saharan tribe."

I just bought my plane tix
I'm going to go to Miami for Xmas, and then on to London for New Years! I can't wait to see my friends Jackie and Barbie, hang out with my cousin Joyce, and go to the beach. My friends Rich and Virginia are also going to be there, so it should be a blast. Now, onto the Christmas shopping...
For New Year's, I'll be joining the Gouldstones for their annual bonfire. My mom may come, too! Should be an exciting time! :)

Howtoons
Two guys associated with MIT -- Saul Griffith and Joost Bonsen -- have been working on a new way for kids to learn about science and engineering through one-page comic strips. Howtoons. Reminds me of a certain someone who always had some scheme going on, be it gigantic dinosaurs or ballistas.

A cool costume, by Ari
A Cool Halloween Costume worn by Ari. I think he got plenty of good licks. Funny bit about Mary Chung's not delivering. One wonders how they stay in business! There's a joke about that...
