Who's your daddy?
A couple of good news:
1) My brother's How Hong Kong R U quiz has been cited by Northwestern University's HKSA newsletter. He told me more than 50,000 people took the quiz. Maybe he'll be on Jay Leno one day.
2) Euro 2004 is around the corner. France beat England 2-1 yesterday. Zidane scored two goals and Beckham missed a penalty kick. Can anyone tell me which channel it's on? I don't know if we have ESPN at the apartment. We don't even have CNN.
P.S. The 60's Dop Wop song "Daddy's Home" by Shep & the Limelights is actually a response to its 50's counterpart "A Thousand Miles Away" by the Heartbeats. Shep is Shane Sheppard, who wrote both songs, employing the bassline used earlier in Ritchie Valen's "We Belong Together" and the Beach Boys' "Surfer Girl," kinda a lullaby melody. Great songs.
