Today’s Question: So, like what’s YOUR perfect day?
Interesting tidbit– I met a fellow who was contemplating opening a gelato shop on Fourth St. in Berkeley. He told me the tale of why Mondo Gelato is now called Gelateria Naia. So Mondo Gelato had three shops– Beijing, Vancouver, and Berkeley. The management of the Berkeley store, in true Berkeley fashion, staged a coup and broke free from the parent company. They basically took over the store, closed it, and re-opened under the new name. They had to vary the recipe for each gelato, but otherwise kept things the same. And now it is Gelateria Naia. That is neat and disturbing, all at once.

I can’t pinpoint “perfect.” But I’ve known many many great days. I’m thankful to experience any day that brings me carefree happiness. ~PK

according to certain roomies, in the original spiderman comix, peter parker obtained his powers not by a spider bite but because his parent’s both had superhuman skills–peter’s powers were just more skilled and refined. if both his parents had these powers then, obviously, he’s not a hybrid. therefore he is not sterile. this scientific survey has been brought to you by me, to you. laters.
