off for summer break to ulleung island

leave a cold one in the icebox for me...

off to the east sea to see what the furor over independence island between korean and japan is about.

or, could it be that i'm going to research rumours that these (ulleung island (울릉도} and independence island {독도}) possess the type of water critical to a can of cass beer's claim that it "provides ultimate refreshment" with a "fizzy and crisp taste"?

be back next week, when the calendar has dropped its julius guise for the guise of the more daft of the caesars--augustus...

p.s. just after writing this, i learned that the "dok" (독) in "dok do" (독도) does not mean independence, but means, instead, isolated or remote. something to do with how it is written in chinese characters. so, instead of going to independence island, we'll be going to solitary isle (as its really too small to be considered a full-fledged island)...
