MOMA in NY rocks. We're planning on going back in Sept. maybe. The Ft. Worth MOMA is small, but has a pretty good collection.

Hit the Whitney while you're there, too. I think the Bienniel will still be up. We had the curator down here a couple of weeks ago talking and showing slides, and it looked fu(kin' fantastic.

OT for Gene:

Your version of Hero that you sell in your video collection, this is the Chinese version correct? With English Subtitles?

i bought same version last april in NYC Chinatown. it is the chinese version menus and such in chinese, but it does have pretty good english subtitles. you jsut need to know how to set them up with your remote if you dont know chinese.

What we would have done in SF:

Early morning - Chinese breakfast at Silver Restaraunt in Chinatown

Morning: Panhandle park - lots of CMA on Saturday morning - followed by goofing around comparing notes.

Lunch: House of Nanking - if you come to SF, you gotta eat there at least once.

Afternoon - some combination of CMA stuff that needs pre-planning. Maybe just a trip to Alameda Air Force base for workout by bay...

Evening - BBQ w/ my students/training friends/family - complete with viewing of worlds worst martial arts tapes.

Oh yeah, and that death match thing would be in there too

Oh well, next time...

Sounds like it would have been fun (except for that death match part). I'll try some of those restaurants while I'm there.

My Dad's mom lived in Hayward the later half of her life & we visited her a lot.
I liked it when they took me to the Exploratorium (near the fine arts museum?? in SF). If it's still there & you have kids with you, it would be fun for them probably.

slb: broadswords

mks2: We always like visitors, but call ahead. Here's Tony Chen's website House of Nanking, eh? You DO know SF.

jp: We are open on Saturday but I'm not here (although Margie often is ) Also you might consdier checking out the new Asian Art museum, it's very good.

kfy: It is the chinese version of Hero - I wasn't aware there was a US version yet.

[Judge Pen]

Well I'm not tight with Margie like NP is!

If you get down to the armpit of the Bay, you can come by our office. We're in Fremont about 40 miles south. Call first, and if I'm available, I'd be happy to give you a personal tour (that goes for any forum members in town, especially if you bring your wallets )

Meh, if I were in the area, I'd be willing to stop bye and meet some of the staff (including you). And by staff, I mean the got qi? girls. And by got qi? girls, I mean Margie.

I'll do that closer to the time that I'm leaving. Basically I plan to go grab some breakfast, go to the park, visit Chinatown and some of the tourist areas that evening. I'll be sure to check your grandmaster's school out.
