Giant Robot Store and GR2 News

Chelsea Wong of Giant Robot SF is busted eating pizza on the job. She actually deserves the slice, since she helped the dog below which was left in a car on a hot day. The windows were cracked, but that dog was dehydrated sitting in there for an hour and a half or more. Chelsea dumped a half bottle of water in there, and the big dog never stopped drinking. She’s smiling since she knows she’s spilling a bunch in the car too. The Slumdoglords should get their dog ownership revoked. This is amazing looking. It’s from Rosamunde Sausage grill. This was the special lamb chili dog and was gamey and great. It’s in the lower haight and this was delicious. I saw this also in the lower haight. It’s stencils of koi. I don’t know what’s more serene that koi swimming on pavement. It’s one of the favorite examples of streetart that I’ve seen.

Yes, that’s Melissa Hung past editor in chief who did shit like a publisher of Hyphen Magazine, a non-profit Asian American magazine that’s run by volunteers. It’s fun some of the time meeting a fellow publisher. There are times when you have nothing to say because they’re busy acting like they’re blinging, too cool, or douchebags, this meeting wasn’t like that. Instead we both have the same problems with our publications. Ad sales, distribution, an Asian American audience, and so forth and somehow we manage to smile in the photo. She’s been through the same wars (that you can’t win) as I, but she’s smart enough to take herself out of it. She won’t have the greys and she’ll live a lot longer than me.

Try saying the title like you’re a tough guy. Or if you’re already tough, just say it, and see what it feels like. These look good, don’t they? Chocolate dipped with Strawberry, straight chocolate, red velvet, and Oreo. Not a bad way to start a day. Yes it’s another cupcake shop. This cute shop is in South Pasadena. How many people think of opening a shop like this? I wish I knew what this said or means. Peece? Cherry Blossoms are still falling. It must be the the special weather. These flowers usually disappear much sooner. I feel like it’s been well over a month. New basil.

This is serious gear. It’s what you get when you do music professionally. A home recording studio with crazy equipment. I got to hear a preview of a Linkin Park song that’s going to be used in a huge blockbuster film. This is how they do it. Note to the Russian fans who scour the net for anything LP, welcome. It’s like cribs. This is just the other half of one room. Yes, I beginning to get good at this. Trick shots too The Yogurtland experience. I don’t write too much about milk products, and I don’t know how so many Asians gobble down yogurt, but I can have just a tiny bit. Doing the .30 an ounze method works well for me. I got a small taste that was $2.
