THIS SUNDAY!



PLUGS:

When next time you get Korean food (store or restaurant) or if you're active in the Korean/Korean-American community or if you want to read a great newspaper that talks about the Asian-American/Korean-American community, I strongly suggest picking up Korean Quarterly (http://www.koreanquarterly.org/Home.html). Not only for all the fine wines of articles, reviews, and event postings, but because there is a feature article written up about "That Asian Thing" by Ms. Martha Vickery (thanks Martha!). Here's the .pdf of the article, but you should still pick up the newspaper! Enjoy:

Next on our list are the great blog posting done by the ever popular, Angry Asian Man and Slant Eye for the Round Eye. Check these out and return to them on a daily basis for your Asian-American updates! Thanks guys!

And last but not least, our good friends at Asiance Magazine has given us a plug under their Daily section. Please check out their website as they focus on the Asian-American women in our society today. (Thanks Jaymie!)

This is your captain's log. The truth is still out there....(uh...been watching a couple of episodes of X-Files and Star Trek...sorry). Hope to see y'all this Sunday!

Hi Jonald, it was great to see you again. I wish we had gotten to hang out longer. Next time!

Please keep Greg and me updated regarding That Asian Thing and any other projects you're working on.
