Sperm Whales

Two sperm whales, Moby, a male and Kalina, a female, were swimming
side by side in the ocean. Suddenly, the male whale spots a
ship in the distance. He recognizes it as the whaling ship
that killed his father. Filled with anger, he says to his
female companion, "That's the ship that killed my father!
Let's swim closer!"

When they were close enough, the male said, "Why don't
we swim under the ship and blow air through our blow holes
and break the ship into a million pieces? That will be
sweet revenge." And the female agreed to this.

So they each took a deep breath of air, swam under the
ship, and blew enormous amounts of air under the ship. The
ship flew into the air and crashed back to the sea and
broke into a million pieces. The pair of whales started to
swim off when they realized that the sailors were not dead,
but floating clinging to pieces of wood in the ocean.
The male whale was furious and said to the female
whale, "They're still alive, but I've got another idea.
Let's swim around and gulp up all the sailors!"

That's when the female stopped swimming, looked at the
male and said, "Oh no... I agreed to the blow job, but I'm
not swallowing any seamen."

Bubble Shooter

Try playing this game on your computer if you're bored. It's a Bust-A-Move knock-off. It's not as good, but you can play for a very long time.

My high score was 81,240. Try to beat that. You better have a lot of time on your hands. I could have done better, but after awhile I got bored of it. Plus, I think I'm blind now looking so intensely at the computer screen for so long.

It's kinda sad I'm playing games like this to somewhat satisfy my videogame addiction. I could be playing Xbox 360 if only Sarah let me play.

At 7th and Fig. for the Farmer's Market during lunch. 

Get outta my picture, fool! 

I'm trying to photoblog, but some security guard guy kicked me out. He said that I couldn't take any photos unless I had management's permission. Nobody tells me what to do!! 

Lunch time is crowded here

Andy and I went road riding on our bikes today. I must say that the Motobecane Nemesis is superfast. I used to bike everywhere on my mountain bike. Now, I feel that they're way too slow on the road. The difference is unbelievable. There were a lot of people biking out here today. We didn't get passed by anyone on the way to our destination. In fact, Andy and I passed a lot of roadies, especially on the way back. Even on the uphills like climbing Santa Fe Dam, I sprinted uphill. Even though I could keep up with roadies on my mountain bike, I could never go that fast before. The difference is like night and day. Of course, I still love my MTB for bombing down mountain trails. Going down fast on a road bike provides unique thrills of its own. One time on the way back, I was slowing down for Andy to catch up to me. When I looked behind, it was another roadie. He passed me. Then, I said to myself, "No way, Jose." I put the bike in high gear and blasted past him without even looking back. I was going about 28 mph on flats while sprinting. I kept going at a fast pace, maintaining an average cruising speed of 24 mph on flats for a couple miles. Then, I slowed down and waited for Andy to catch up. The roadie I passed was a middle aged Hispanic guy who seemed to be pissed off. He kept saying "Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit!" as he passed me by later on. Today's bike experience was a huge rush for me because of the acceleration and speed I felt and also because I passed a bunch of roadies. I feel totally motivated to enter a bike race now.

However, a shocking turn of events happened to me towards the end of my ride. I looked at my arms and they were covered with bumps and hives! I was shocked and scared. What's happening to me?? Well, I think I'm allergic to the sun. Yes, it's true. Whenever I go out in the sun, I start getting hives on my arms. They cover my inner elbow and arms. This is the first time this has happened to me. But, I've been getting it all day. Now, I can't go out in the sun, especially when it's hot outside. I first noticed that my whole upper body started getting really itchy when it was really hot last month. It's been continuing ever since. Now, I'm getting hives. I think it's called Polymorphous Light Eruption (PMLE). Now, I can't even go biking. My favorite form of exercise. This is devastating since I just started really experiencing the joys of my new ride. Will I have to give up my dreams of competing in a triathlon? Why is this happening to me? My body is falling apart these days. I've got numerous other problems besides this new health problem I just got today. This is not a good sign. 

We biked from Whittier Narrows Recreation Center in South El Monte to the end of the bike paths in Azusa.
