If programmers had to make a plane - This is what I do every day! Sort of.

I am not an adventurous eater. Hell, I'm fairly reserved in my choices of food. My friends who know that I can be picky sometimes ask for a list of things I eat and a while ago I put together a list of the "Patrick Approved Veggies" which had only 8 or 10 entries. I'll have to recreate the list one day. That being said though, I do love sushi. Well, simple sushi. I like rice, fish, and sometimes seaweed. I steer clear of the more complex options, or ones with unusual choices.

However two nights ago K picked me up from work and we went to grab a bite. She had heard of this sushi place right near my office from a friend of ours and sure enough - that place is awesome!

Bikkuri Sushi
1915 E. Colonial Dr.
Orlando, FL 32803

I don't know how many of you live in Orlando, or how many of you like sushi, or how many of you live in Orlando and like sushi, but if you fulfill the last of those - you have to check this place out. It's good sushi and it's very reasonably priced!

Now, if you want to know more about sushi as a whole, there is a fantastic resource on the Internet called Sushi FAQ and believe me, if you have a sushi question, that document will probably have an answer.

I've got a new design up, it's a little brighter than the old one. And by a little, I mean a lot. But I like it, so everyone else will adjust. From here I want to begin integrating the RSS from my other sites, such as ManaNation and even WhatTheCast.

Episode 20, recorded on November 5th … remember, remember … Brian, Patrick and Stephen talk about everything from Will Smith to Ron Paul. It’s definitely not affected by the writer’s strike, because nobody could have thought to write this down!

Normally this sort of link would just be relegated to the Asides, but to put it bluntly - this moved me. I've always been a large fan of Lessig's and hearing that he spoke at TED caused me to immediately put work aside and seek out the video. This is, perhaps, the most eloquent speech I have ever heard concerning the problems with modern copyright.

Please, if you have 20 minutes, watch this video. And I do mean watch it. Listening does not do justice to his presentation.
