Theme, “bi-monthly lifestyle magazine that focuses on stories about contemporary Asian culture,” celebrates the re-launch of its website by giving away a Giant Metro Suede Bike worth $800. All you have to do is give them a bike tour of your city. The site redesign is clean, simple, organized and just beautiful.

A charter bus carrying Vietnamese worshippers on a pilgrimage ran off a highway overpass north of Dallas and plunged onto a roadway below early Friday, killing at least 14 people and injuring more than 40, authorities said.

Stand-up comedian Bernie Mac passed away at 50 from pneumonia. Damn.

Lam Truong’s new album Ngay Hom Nay flops again. No coming back for him.

Michael Grunwald’s “The Tire-Gauge Solution: No Joke“:

The Bush Administration estimates that expanded offshore drilling could increase oil production by 200,000 bbl. per day by 2030. We use about 20 million bbl. per day, so that would meet about 1% of our demand two decades from now. Meanwhile, efficiency experts say that keeping tires inflated can improve gas mileage 3%, and regular maintenance can add another 4%. Many drivers already follow their advice, but if everyone did, we could immediately reduce demand several percentage points. In other words: Obama is right.

Going to check my tires today. It’s been a while.

I am using HelloTxt to send my text messages to Twitter, FaceBook, MySpace, Pownce as well as Visualgui.com (the right column underneath the search box). Pretty cool little tool. Blogging is so old school nowadays.

My mom, sister and sister’s kids are visiting us this weekend. The rough plan is to take them to Korean BBQ, the National Aquarium, Eden Center, and in particular, the 5th Annual Asian Festival.

On energy plan:

Senator McCain’s energy plan reads like an early Christmas list for oil and gas lobbyists. And it’s no wonder – because many of his top advisors are former oil and gas lobbyists.

On tire inflation:

Last night, after all that, Senator McCain agreed that keeping our tires inflated was a good idea. Which makes sense, because NASCAR, which knows something about tires, said the same thing, so did the AAA, so in the coming days it’s going to be interesting to see this coming debate between John McCain and…John McCain!”

Have to love that McCain vs. McCain joke.

T.I. gets his King pimp on.
