More on Shaq-antics...

A person e-mailed me informing me of a petition that has been started demanding that Shaq issue a sincere apology.

Sign it if you get the chance... I think it's important to represent that the entire Asian American community is offended by what he said - not just a small, vocal minority.

Random note:

My friend Chris sent me this article about a book that claims the Chinese discovered America in 1421! Seems almost like just crazy fiction, but the books author, a former commander in the British Navy, seems to have collected some compelling evidence - wrecks of Chinese junks in America, anthropological evidence of Chinese-speaking peoples in America pre-dating Columbus, and evidence of flora/fauna specific to China that was deposited here in America. Interesting stuff, maybe I'll pick up his book after I finish the stuff that is on my reading list now.

The next time somebody tells me to "To go back where I came from" and "AMERICANS (AkA white Europeans) were here first", I'm gonna laugh my head off...
