Seaweed has always been a big food group in my life, due to the fact that Koreans love seaweed and its everywhere in the ocean in Korea. Now, seaweed does have lots of nutritional goodies like vitamins and they are like the ultimate vegetable from the sea, something the land can’t offer with its mass-produced crap.

As a U.S. immigrant who grew up in a suburban neighborhood in Bay Area about 20 years ago, I still remember the first day I learned about Martin Luther King Jr. I couldn’t speak nor write English, yet I still understood what he was about and that the U.S. wouldn’t be so diverse nowdays and “racially” more fair than any other country in the world.

It looks like the new Samsung 42″ PDP TVs are really bugging the hell out of Korean customers… Which is good news for us in the US since all the Koreans do beta-testing for us… (Well, I am Korean too but I don’t live there…) Well, it’s a good thing that Samsung did fix the problem by recalling them but still, who wants to buy a big ass TV and expect ...
