I had sushi today at a place called Yuka. It was a last minute decision after discovering that Tomoe doesn't open on Sundays. The sushi was okay. Edible. The pieces were easily the largest pieces of raw fish on rice that I have ever seen and the wasabi was the most potent wasabi that I had ever tasted. Both those facts don't necessarily make for a great sushi eating experience but they're both good for laughs and they don't hurt... not too much anyway. My main problem with the place was the warm rice that made the fish warm. Warm sushi can be a little disconcerting.

Season 2 of Project Runway started on Wednesday. It looks like the show hasn't lost its magic.

Magic in a reality show you say? Yes.

The reasons I love Project Runway:

• It's a bunch of people doing what they love to do
• They're good at what they do

In other Heidi news, she helped host the the World Cup Final draw and the results are interesting.

The U.S. has no chance of proceeding past the first round even though the former national team players on ESPN insisted that the U.S. had a chance of going all the way. The host on ESPN nearly cracked up laughing as did I. But then again, they did make those comments prior to seeing their division. The U.S. is grouped up with Italy, The Czech Republic, and Ghana if I can remember correctly. Pwned.

Korea seems to have a reasonable chance of progressing although it won't be easy. They're grouped with France, Switzerland, and Togo.

Brazil is grouped with Croatia, Australia, and Japan. Wtf. As if they needed help destroying the rest of the world.

Argentina looks like it could make another early exit after their dismal performance in 2002.

Fun stuff.

June 9th, 2006, the magic begins.
