Listening to the chatter and watching the wild gesticulating of some arcane academic point.

Nom'ing on delicious USDA angus prime beef brisket at Bak Kung 2, which I think is in the old Soot Bull Jeep 2 location... the beef tongue was also pretty awesome but a tad too thick. Garlic marinated pork belly and chicken hearts were also pretty damned good. Ban chan and marinated galbi were just okay, but honestly it's hard to complain about galbi!

Note that the parking spaces closer to Bak Kung 2 seem to be bigger, the other half of the lot, the spaces are tiny. Eek.

Tried to hit California Donuts after, but we saw the 70+ person line from a block away and said hell no. Went to SK Donuts instead, where they had maybe a half-dozen people in line, and still got our Fruity Pebbles donut, Homer donut, classic glazed, and of course their own version of cronuts!

Took the plethora of donuts to a triple birthday party that night-- Mia, Dylan, and Tyler's! Watched a lot of non-Geography dorks argue about map projections while the Geographers nodded knowningly and all kinds of other antics. Happy Birthday, Mia, Dylan, and Tyler!
