Just remembered. The other day, I was walking in Dupont Circle, and I saw this man in a wheelchair trying to cross the street. Thing is, cars are blowing past the stop sign and not letting him cross for some reason. “That sucks,” I think to myself. I continue to walk until I find that he’s on the opposite side of the street from me. I start to cross, and this cab starts edging up on me. I start to slow my walk until I stop directly in front of the cab.

I look at the guy in the wheelchair. He looks at me and starts to cross as I stand in front of the cab. “Thanks man,” he says.

Point of the story is: Stupid Amelie movie.

My only saving grace is that I got to be a wiseass and do something nice at the same time.

Mmmm. Target. Better than a box full of good things. Picked up the first issues of the Mangaverse. Good execution and art on some of the books. There are some that didn’t make the transition very well. Take the Xmen, for instance. Not very good at all. However, the Fantastic Four / Evangelion homage is really very stylistic, if very simplistic. None of the depth normally associated with Evangelion. But all of the giant robots you love.

Forgot my scarf at BajaFresh, I guess I have to go back tomorrow. Anyone up for a fish taco? Anyone?

Off to Target for no reason at all.

Joy! I have found a place to get fish tacos within the metropolitan area. And, by my standards, they’re pretty good. BajaFresh. Who’s up for a gastronomical journey? Who’s never had a fish taco before? Wha? No way. You’re kidding. Free your mind. They are pretty good. Or you may not like it. There’s no accounting for taste, right?
