Chinese fast food. It's okay if there's absolutely nothing else to eat, but it's targeted at Americans who want the "Oriental flavor" but not the authenticity.
[snapback]93986[/snapback]
Westernized Chinese food, eh?

I figured it was Chinese from the "Panda" bit, but I just wanted to make sure they weren't serving pandas. Then again, you never know. Maybe pandas taste exactly like chicken.

Since you work at NYT, I'm guessing you're near Manhattan (or the environs). If you're near midtown, there's this awesome stand called Chicken and Rice (open all hours) Have you heard of it?
It's a great place to grab some Indian Food (and there's always people flocking to it)

1: My first quote - let's see what happens
2: My sig has "joshua" in Hebrew first, then "joshua" in Greek and then "arche" in greek. Basically just my name in Hebrew and Greek and the original language screen name arche. I just wanted to show off my dead language skillz

Well, it is my understanding that Russian lettering is based in part on Greek & Hebrew letters, so I'll let you off on that one

I used to hate my name, but now it's nice. I like it. Especially when I read the book of Joshua in the Bible because he does so much smiting

Note: I just noticed that my total post count makes up 1% of total forum posts. That makes me really sad

Futurama.

Here's a piece from the ambush against the people of Ai - emphasis added - (Joshua 8: 21-25):
QUOTE
And when Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city, and that the smoke of the city ascended, then they turned again, and slew the men of Ai. And the others came forth out of the city against them; so they were in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side: and they smote them, so that they let none of them remain or escape. And the king of Ai they took alive, and brought him to Joshua. And it came to pass, when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness wherein they pursued them, and they were all fallen by the edge of the sword, until they were consumed, that all Israel returned unto Ai, and smote it with the edge of the sword. And all that fell that day, both of men and women, were twelve thousand, even all the men of Ai.

It's Duel
Masters 
And yeah.... I don't know why I like it.. it's kind of hilarious.. (like anything dubbed in Finnish would be.. nice to make fun fo their voices)... I don't think it can be even taken seriously (I mean the whole plot)
The card game.. I really wouldn't know how to play it.. I feel so dumb

But it's very entertaining.. (and has a few bishie characters..)
other thoughts on that..
-I can't believe how much it reminds me of Yu-gi-oh!
-a "duel"
very similar to the "first" one Yugi had with Kaiba...(complete with mind crush and oponent falling down on his knees)
-Shobu with his hand on his deck.. "I must believe in myself"
-a boy, who's father owns a game shop.
The list goes on....
And other thoughts:
-My Mum seems to really like vacuum cleaning..
-at least it drowns the noise of the comp

- i was supposed to work on my portfolio stuff because i've ditched art class for the past 3 days and my teacher will kill me if i come to class today with my picture unfinished...but i ended up coming home and going to sleep on my bedroom floor, and i vaguely remember my dad waking me up and prodding me towards my bed.
- tiiired. gotta work on portfolio stuff now, damn it all.
- funeral's today. i'm not going (my friends took all of my black clothes, anyway), but i wish it wasn't so damn gloomy and foggy outside.....
