| NOTE ON THE WEBPAGE: la la la saturday, 2/13/99, 3:15pm These are basically my bookmarks. Good for research (pain). Good for procrastination (pleasure). For more Asian American-related sites, see my asians webpage. * It's pretty paltry compared to this. *. Restyled page number two of my website. Just you wait. I'll get to them all.
