Peter Pan is a bully, The Chicken Run ROCKS
Boston.com / Business / Peter Pan is a bully: "business, using vans to drive his fellow immigrants to their jobs in New York City. Business booms. Pretty soon Pei Lin Liang is running cut-rate, no-frills bus service between Boston and New York. The appeal could not be simpler: $10 one way.
The customers love it -- and not just Asians, but anyone looking to save a buck, particularly the young. What Southwest Airlines did to the economics of air fares, Liang's little bus line, Fung Wah Bus, is now doing to the established order of the I-95 bus business. And in an era of overpaid chief executives, Liang, who speaks little English and lives in New York, still drives a bus regularly."
Go Fung Wah!

Fourth east and The Rock
Tonight we saw The Rock (1996) at LSC. Vimal organized it, and we had rice krispies desserts while chatting to Slugfest. Familiar faces and good entertainment. What more could you ask for? Also got to see the first episode of Monk on the projection in the Goodale Lounge. It was good, a bit sad. Can't believe Vimal and Kathy and gang have graduated! Has it been 4 years already???

Good luck HelloMoto
HelloMoto qualifies for the Vendee Globe race by coming in 5th at the Transat. :) Can you imagine 5 months at sea??? Good thing there are satellite phones. :)
Hellomoto Racing Yacht Sets Sail
Today we got to get a close look at the Hellomoto boat. Hellomoto Racing Yacht Sets Sail and came into harbor in Boston last weekend. Moto had a reception at Rowes Wharf. I think its quite exciting that these young people can dedicate their lives to this sport. This race was a 14 day solo race, and the only contact with others was an Iridium phone. The boat was very pretty and besides being nicely painted, seemed to have lots of cool tech. There were at least 8 solar panels and 3 anemometers. There were also catamarans and tri-cats in the harbor, which were quite interesting to look at.
Dinner at the Union Oyster House
So we're sitting in Faneuil Hall, eating fish and chips at Union Oyster House, Boston. Apparently it's America's Oldest Restaurant. The food was good though. Good dinner for a nice night.

Santiago Calatrava Website
So I walk past the Gehry building almost every day, and I wonder, why couldn't we get something from Santiago Calatrava? I remember walking under his bridge in Valencia, and his beautiful Metro stop. Beauty and engineering....

My friend Ian Gouldstone, has a blog now. It's called 'ello, me duck! and is much more cool than mine! :)

How to Remove Comment notes from BlogSpeak Javascript Errors
I take no responsibility for people who don't back up their site. I would save a backup copy first, and then remove the comment stuff from BlogSpeak(because it generates javascript errors).
First, log onto your Blogger.com account. Go to the Blog template and delete the lines that have anything to do with blogSpeak. Also need to delete the stuff having to do with $BlogComment stuff.
Most obvious is the line that starts with "script" and has blogspeak in the line.
Next is the ItemPage section that has "BlogComments" references in it.
Delete beginning from <ItemPage> to <ItemPage> of that section.
