This just in! Copies of Vienna Teng’s new album Warm Strangers were spied on the shelves at Santana Row Best Buy! The second full-length album from Vienna Teng was supposed to be released on Tuesday, February 24, 2004. It is likely that some over-zealous employee gave the go-ahead to put…

Stanford University hosted the 8th Annual Collegiate Wushu Championship Saturday in Burnham Pavilion. If this was the 8th year of the tournament, how come I never heard of it when I was studying Tai-Chi as an undergrad? I was surprised by the relative lack of competitors at the tourney. It…

Here are some photos that I took over the weekend. On Saturday, Rae and I went up to Vista Point along Highway 280. We’ve both driven by the exit (actually, there are two of them in between Edgewood and Highway 92), but we’ve never stopped to see what it’s all…

We had our first poker night at Carolyn and Ron’s place in Sunnyvale on Friday the 13th. It was a nightmare for me, as I lost my money around midnight. Siu had been eliminated earlier in the evening, so at least I had company. Bryan, Carolyn, Joon-Mo, and Randy duked…

Man, what a game! Randy and I wanted to see what all the fuss was about the Stanford men’s basketball team, which was 19-0 going into their Saturday matchup against the Arizona Wildcats. Dick Vitale made a rare West Coast appearance to announce the game along with Brent Musberger. Also…

Happy Year of the Monkey! Petrice held her annual Chinese New Year party in Berkeley yesterday evening. Familiar faces from previous parties and other gatherings were present at the festivities. As usual, Petrice cooked up a storm of culinary delights in her tiny kitchen. It was good to see Michael…

Rae’s a Switcher! I helped her set up her new 17-inch iMac on Friday, loading it up with memory and software. It’s a definite upgrade from her old and slow Dell computer. I think she’s going to enjoy using it! Macs are just so much more visually appealing than PC’s.…

I first met Saul Kato at Stanford back in April, 2001. At the time, he was demoing the first-generation Jack product at Stanford Stadium. The Jack was able to beam a copy of its browser application to a Palm device, which would then communicate with the Jack to retrieve relevant…
