sailormac, according to Right Stuf's catalog, Viz is releasing the first volume of Death Note in October. I spotted the first four untranslated volumes of the title in Borders today, after scooping up the next "W Juliet" volume.

China King still makes the best sweet and sour chicken (okay, chicken tempura, given I leave off the sauce) in the area. I don't get to that chain all that often, so it's a nice treat. I'm beginning to wonder if honey garlic chicken is a localized phenomenon or limited to certain styles of Chinese restaurants I don't visit. Manchu Wok sometimes has it on a blue moon.

I'm also starting to think my father was right when he said I always wound up working at places at the most "interesting times". My current assignment is overwhelmingly Hispanic/Latin American, so it was fascinating hearing the responses yesterday to the new pope.

Yep, I saw that! I'm actually surprised it didnt' come over sooner, given the raging popularity of the series on both sides of the Pacific. There's talk of an anime now, too.
