Default Sushi

I saw some nori sheets (seaweed) in the store recently; didn't buy them
(yet) but they piqued my interest. Also I saw on "Man v. Food" the
episode where he ate all those spicy tuna rolls (each one hotter than
the one before) and they looked kind of tasty...

What do you order in a sushi restaurant? And is sushi something I could
make at home without experiencing it at a sushi bar first? I was
thinking something like a California roll -- but not rolled inside out
because that's just silly, put the nori on the outside where it belongs.
Or something like that spicy tuna hand roll, but made with canned
kippers instead of raw tuna -- not so much because the tuna is raw, but
this is 1000 miles from the ocean so fish that fresh seems like an
extravagance for no good reason except to be extravagant.

I may stop by the Asian market tomorrow and look for nori, and those
little bamboo mats. I already have some short grain rice...
