*passes a Marlboro to Tiff*
here ya go, you deserve it. I've been smoking a lot this week, it really is a nice stress-reliever during busy times.
Delph, I am honored to be known as a spicy Asian! Not many people in real life consider me Asian, even though I had Shanghai dumplings for dinner. Tiff knows what I'm talkin' 'bout!
Ellie, not quite yet. I've gone over the material but I need to have my boss schedule me a test. I did just find out I'm working the 1st preview of that new Jewish play with Jason Biggs/Molly Ringwald on Friday, tho! That's exciting to this fellow of the Asian Persuasion!

I live in California. The city I live in is known as "the mixing pot" because it is the most racially diverse city in America. Take that, Tiff! Updated On: 11/9/04 at 01:44 AM
Oh, you live in Hell-Ay? (Sorry, Ted Casablanca moment.) I've got relatives there!
And yes, Matt sweetie, I know what you're talkin' bout the Shanghai dumplings, because I'm having them for dim sum on Wednesday, and you'd better believe I'm excited.
What play is this you're working for?? Molly Ringwald?
(And I'm seeing Les Mis for the first time on Wednesday night too! Whee!)
where in cali? before I moved out to NY, I was a student at UC San Diego, which is roughly 50% Asian. and before that, I was growing up in the heart of Silicon Valley, where my high school was almost 80% Asian. that's why it's such a thrill to be one of the Tiff/Matt Asian Dynamic Duo here. just tryin ta buy a BMW!

Tiff, it's a play called MODERN ORTHODOX, directed by James Lapine. I'm not familiar with it, but my manager says we're expecting massive crowds for it. Jason Biggs, Molly Ringwald, Craig Bierko. u need to not be in Canada anymore so u can partake of this fine theatre scene. seriously, you guys must get tired of Colm Wilkinson at some point!

My high school graduation class was 80% Asian. The suburb I live in is 73% Asian. I swear to god, my neighbours are people I let into the country fresh off the boat! - er, airplane!
Dude, I just saw a honger with a BMW with a freakin picnic table/spoiler on the back. A DDR machine and a bubble tea couldn't make him more Asian.
I cannot WAIT until Chinese New Year. It's the only time Ireally identify with being Chinese - getting unearned money does that to people.
Sorry, Delph. I'm sure you're very nice and ivory. Where in CA are you?
No, I don't live in Hell-A, thankyouverymuch. I live in Sacramento, the capitol of California. And yes, I HAVE met the governator.
Sacramento...that's the capitol? I thought it was something that starts with a C---Carmel?
You met the Governator? Sweet! Did he say the line? "Ahl be bahk."
CHINESE NEW YEAR!!! GUNG HAY FAT CHOI or something like that. wait, Tiff, this is important... Cantonese or Mandarin? I'm only representin' the people of Canton, the noble workers who helped build this country. as opposed to just hanging out in taiwan, waiting for sun microsystems to have a job opening.
I have to brag that I get the best of several worlds. I'm half chinese and half Jewish, but was raised half-ass Catholic. So I get Chinese New Year money, Hanukkah presents, and Christmas presents.

I do recall a rather taciturn Malaysian...

Carmel is a beautiful city on the beach. Nice for vacations.
Arnold didn't say "I'll be back" but rather explained to me the importance of education and how his mother whacked him over the head and on the ass with a wooden paddle when he was a child. What a weird man.
Malaysia's the country - Chinese is the race. Like, you could be American but be black. That kinda thing.
Dude, I'm all over Canton. None of that traditional Mandarin crap, bro. Makes things tough ordering at a Shanghainese restaurant though.
You're half jewish AND half Catholic AND half chinese?! WTF? So the next few months are hte best time of year for you!
yep!! good times are ahead for me! and my birthday is January 9th! same day as richard nixon.
**gives Tiff a traditional Cantonese high five and another cig**

What the hell is a Cantonese high 5?
And BTW, sorry if I abruptly sign off. The net dies at exactly 11pm. I'll explain later.

Oh sorry - forgive my ignorance, I'm American.
I'm a half-ass Catholic too!
Did you make your first holy communion?
That was my highlight.
just go along with it dammit! I don't know enough about my culture to actually reference something that exists, so I came up with the cantonese high 5! u happy now? now all the white people know!

So...you're a half cracka, a half Asian...does that make you a banana or an egg??

I may have to get a new screen name... it would seem that I am no longer the insomniac of bww.com. Or else I can just learn to go without sleep altogether and stay up with you kids.
My ethnicity is eurotrash, in case that's still the topic of conversation.
