- Saturday night I was sitting in Jose's in Palo Alto patiently waiting for
- my dinner: a plate of shrimp (or so I thought).
-
- Then the waitress brought me a small bowl-type dish with what looked like
- an alien space creature inside it. Just like the giant shell thing in
- Star Trek NG that they called "Tinman" or something like that. I ate it's
- entrails with much reverence and hoped no-one would notice that my throat
- was glowing.
