Hoi An, Viet Nam
The old city of Hoi An is a Unesco World Heritage site. During the American war both sides agreed (in an alarming moment of clarity) not to bomb the shit out of this city. This place was a major international trading port from the 15th to 19th century. As a port of call for Dutch, Portuguese, Chinese, Indian, French, American and Japanese traders everything came through here. The mix of architecture is wholly unique a result. Apparently 800 structures of historical significance have been designated. If the tailors shops we frequented were historical then we probably saw most of them.
We were up at 5am the first day and having come in at night had no idea what the town was about. We wandered down the street and hit the market as people were setting up. The outdoor market was where it was at; a cacophony of sights, sounds and oh yeah, smells, though the fish area was surprisingly tolerable. It was total sensory overload at first, not only because of the action but everyone wants you to buy something. Most of these pics are all from the market in the old city, where we stayed. Whats missing is the noise, a constant soundtrack of chatter and horns and movement.

1st Annual PG County 100 Yard Sprint
June 2, 2006
DASH FOR DIGNITY SET FOR SATURDAY
EXCUSES vs CONCERN FOR OTHERS MARK PRE-RACE PREP
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
June 2, 2006 - Race fans are tittering with excitement over Saturday's "Dash for Dignity" between local drinker Gabriel J. Klein and hunger opponent Todd Zwillich. Friends have branded the event as the "Jew Foot Race for Freedom", though Zwillich is promoting the race as the "Dash for Dignity", noting that both Klein's and DC's dignity are on the line.
Klein and Zwillich are scheduled to face off at 2 p.m. in a 100-yd sprint on the undercard of the 1st annual Bao-derdash race in Prince George's County, Md.
The undercard race was hatched earlier this week after Klein challenged Zwillich while drinking wine.
Both contestants agreed to race on Saturday, though it was only hours after the challenge that Klein and his fiancée and live-in spin-doctress SuperBunny launched what Zwillich charged is a campaign to establish excuses for possible defeat. Klein himself announced Thursday that he planned to play in a rugby match Saturday morning, further evidence of a pre-race media strategy designed to cement public sympathy for a potential loss, Zwillich said.
"In ancient Greece, military commanders wore brown pants to fool their troops into believing they were not frightened of battle. Klein is clearly attempting to don modern-day 'brown pants' by proffering excuses before the race. But excuses and brown pants have something in common: they both stink!" Zwillich said.
The race has sparked a flurry of wagering in DC as well as in the betting shops of Las Vegas and Atlantic City.
Many bookmakers favor Klein because he is a regular participant in the "Bootcamp" athletic program. Others point to Zwillich's clear stride advantage and lust for speed.
But on Friday, Zwillich--a staunch enemy of hunger, pediatric cancer, and insulting kittens--announced he would give race fans an additional reason to bet on him. Zwillich said that if he is victorious, he will match all winnings in a donation to the Capital Area Food Bank.
"This race may have been borne of bluster, but there's no reason why DC shouldn't benefit. A bet on me is a bet against hunger. A bet for Gabe is a bet for brown pants and wine," Zwillich said.

No Wonder the Line at Starbucks is So Long
So this afternoon while visiting Starbucks for a, new for the summer, blackberry green tea frappachino blended creme, I overheard my coworker request her java chip frapp be "double blended". What the hell is double blended? I had never even heard that before, yet the barista didn't even flinch. She enlightened me on her coffee neediness and dislike for clumped ice chips.
Thus I was determined to come up with the longest possible coffee order.
Here was my decaffeinated concoction:
grande, decaf, triple shot, soy, sugarfree, vanilla, 8 pump, latte, extra hot, with whipped cream and chocolate shavings in a venti cup
But apparently I'm travelling in a foreign land because I got totally schooled by my Starbucksaholic co-worker in proper cafe lingo and received this translation:
Venti, organic non-fat, half-caff, quad shot, 8 pump sugar-free hazelnut, extra hot, with extra foam and chocolate shavings, latte
i dare you to top that.
