Thursday, January 26th, 2006Last weekend, after getting rejected at the paintball place in LIC for being drunk, we called for a limo to take us back to Manhattan. This video [vimeo.com] of Zach took place while we waited.

Democracy in action - Hamas wins election

BBC NEWS | Middle East | Hamas ’secures stunning victory’
Hamas official Mushir al-Masri warned that Hamas would not hold peace talks with Israel.
“Recognising Israel is not on the agenda either now.”
What kind of world [is Palestine a country these days?] is it when a political party based around a platform of violence can win - strongly - an election for public office?
It’s a sad day for the world and for democracy.
Stephen Starr comes to New York

With 420 New Seats to Fill, Restaurateur Banks on Buzz - New York Times
IN Philadelphia, where the dining scene is a fraction of the size of New York’s, Stephen Starr dominates. He has 12 restaurants there, soon to be 13. His pull is like that of the New York restaurateurs Danny Meyer, Drew Nieporent and Stephen Hanson combined. His openings are guaranteed to attract attention.…
Morimoto, opening Tuesday, is at 88 10th Avenue (16th Street), (212) 989-8883; Buddakan, opening in mid-February, is at 75 Ninth Avenue (16th Street), (212) 989-6699.
Morimoto in Philadelphia remains my favorite restaurant, the $120 omakase still the best meal I have ever eaten. I can’t wait to go to the New York version. I’m concerned about the usual slow start and getting the service to the appropriate, high-quality level but excited all the same. Buddakan is fantastic also and I can’t wait to see if they one-up the size of the Buddha compared to the one in Philly.
