Some quotes:
"Anyhow, I feel like Asian men ultimately need to start excelling in the general HUMAN battleground in areas we have traditionally been weak in here, like athletics and sexual/emotional pursuits. Here's a great example of an Asian guy who has done just that, without sacrificing any of his stereotypical Asian intellectualism, either:" "The real payoff is not monetary, but increased respect from men and increased lust from women."
ahahaha
guess i was also on http://www.yalestartups.com/news.php ...yeah that's been sorta weird, YEI printed out my article and put it out there so that every time i walk out the door i see my article

| so yeah...i'm still here on this thing because there is somehow still more track related stuff in my life
an e-mail from a guy in yale sports publicity:
"Good to see you last week.
As I mentioned, we're starting to tape video interviews with various
Yale Athletics individuals (coaches, athletes, alums). For now we're
posting them on YouTube (www.youtube.com/YaleAthletics) and blip.tv, and embedding them on yalebulldogs.com.
We tape every Tuesday night at Mory's between 7:00 and 8:00. Let me
know if you think you'll be free on an upcoming Tuesday to talk about
what you're up to (and reflect back on your career at Yale). Dinner is
included." yes, free dinner...time to get a sales pitch ready for my company haha...
"The questions will be generic ones about what paperG does (your chance to
give your best sales pitch) and what your experience as a Yale athlete
was like. If there's anything in particular you want to talk about (or
don't want to talk about) just let me know in advance. You can even
suggest questions. "
while i'm at it, i might as well have them ask me "are you single?" ...haha i'll have a singles ad and company sales pitch all in one

"You have to understand that the white media is trying to portray Asian
guys as emasculated nerds who can't get laid b/c the white man sees
Asian guys as a threat to them. imagine all the white women drooling
over an Ivy League educated Asian guy with supermodel looks (such as
Yul Kwon). Don't you think the white man will feel threatened by a
smart, Ivy League educated, but physically fit and good looking Asian
guy. White women will be all over him."

No, not ridiculous at all -- the article could
well attract potential students to Yale and
to computer science. Besides, we're proud of you.
Best,
