I was about to say that I’m not going to stay up late to get my new iPad 2, because I have to be alert for grand jury tomorrow, but I was just informed by all sorts of alerts on my computer that there was a huge earthquake in Japan. I’m watching a live stream from NHK and there are huge floods I don’t understand, a tsunami watch, and aftershocks on the live feed. So far I’ve heard from one friend who says she’s OK but her room is a mess.

So everything else I was thinking about doesn’t really seem very important. However, I will say that Dorio on 23rd and Marshall in Portland is pretty tasty on my first trip. I was told by a Greek-American friend to check it out.
