Today I celebrated my friend Adrienne’s 19th birthday… We went to eat at Kobe’s Japanese Steakhouse, and I must admit that it was quite an experience. I had never been to a Japanese restaurant before, nor had I ever had sushi, and both proved to be very enjoyable. Our cook–who I believe faked his accent–joked around and was doing tricks with his cooking utensils, and “accidentally” flipped a raw egg into my lap (the egg turned out to be a fake), making for an interesting pre-dinner show of sorts.

Completely unrelated, but nevertheless interesting is this quasi-intelligence test I came across online. You are presented with 33 number and letter combinations (24 H in a D = 24 hours in a day), and the number you can figure out in 20 minutes roughly determines your intelligence. Its accuracy is doubtful, but amusing none-the-less.
