Taichung city worker safety

Everyone knows what this machine is called. The guy driving the saw told me a tree fell on it. What key part of this electric bread knife is broken off? HINT: While driving it is important to your safety.

Tinnie Winnies

Something for the wee ones and their homework. New school dress code. Just Kidding. The students were actually having a DRESS rehearsal for school Drama. By the way I made a seperate blog to put pictures of students and better topics. The addresses is Why_would_I_tell_you@blogspot.R.U.C

I really hate to post this

It shatters all kinds of positive imagery I have of Canada built up from photos of Kevlar's kin killin' and brandishin' animal parts at the lake.

One surprise in the figures is that Canada's emission record is far worse than even the United States, where the Bush administration has refused to ratify Kyoto.

Mr. Bramley said the United States is "actually ahead of Canada in just about every area" of environmental policies used to curb emissions. And he said the record of individual states "is far ahead of any province in Canada."

All I have to say is:

IT RUBS THE EMISSION CONTROLS UPON ITS SKIN, OR IT GETS THE HOSE AGAIN!

Deep Thoughts.....

I was around Pj's this afternoon. Handed in the football pick sheets. Told him I watched the Indy game at home this morning therefore I wouldn't be in to watch the game tonight. He informed me that I won this weeks pool. That's great, thanks. Then he said " you should still come around tonight though, you won, get face or whatever." Hmmm.... Did he mean save face? I wonder how many football pools I would have to win in order to win back the face lost at sports day? In fact, do I really need to worry about face if I'm down at Pj's?

Personal Ads F.A.Q.

Why are the women in the ads fairly good looking? Why don't you ever post ugly women?

As a rule, I only bust on the pretty people. As an ugly person myself, I don't find it humorous to make fun of someone's appearance unless they are reasonably hot. Then they're asking for it.

Why are the chicks so young? Is Red A actually Gary Glitter in real life?

Because when I filled in the form many years ago, I selected a reasonable age grouping. But Yahoo apparently thinks I never age and/or that I could still have any chance with these girls.

Isn't this sort of creepy and probably a violation of Yahoo's use agreement?

Yes. But is it Gary Glitter creepy? No.

How about Chaon level creepiness?

Yes, but in a healthy heterosexual way he could only dream of.

I wonder if the guys' ads are even worse?

Probably. We need a ringer to go in the system as a girl to evaluate the male ads in a sensitive yet critical manner. Let me know if you are interested and I'll buy you a butt load of heteracil if you can pull it off.

Thanksgiving Personal Ads

Girl No. 1 hi guys
She claims she is "Shy at first, but warm up quickly" but she lists the activities she's interested in as:

Whether it be sexual or going out for drinks and just hanging out. Im up for either.

'Warms up quickly' means sometimes you don't even have to get a drink in her or hang out at all apparently. "Well, officer, it all happened so fast."

Also, you have to be TALL and not shorter than her. That's very important to her. She's 5'4" so I guess Seth Green and a fair percentage of Hmong villagers are out of luck.

Girl No. 2 Sexy Single and Lonely
In her own words:

Also, I am sorry to say, but I am a shallow person. I like my man to be attractive. If you do not keep yourself in a good condition, shower daily, regular haircuts, no scruffy beard,clean clothing, then once again, dont bother.

Hmmmm, fair enough. But shouldn't she warn us that she likes raunchy Halloween costumes? Oh, and yeah, she will black out your face with photoshop if she doesn't like you. Be warned!

Girl No. 3 fun girl looking for a fun guy

Yet another girl that probably doesn't need a personal ad.

Rockin'

My efforts to build a New Brunswick rocket chair have not been so successful. It passes the sitting test. The rocking lacks that grandma chair smoothness. This chair fails to fool the childs knowledge of whether Dad is standing or sitting. I will have to look for the book of rocket rocker science,

DwAYNE sells X-box

Recently Dwayne sold one X-BOX to a man named Dug. Dwayne was over heard saying " Now that the pesky video game box has gone south, I have time to create a post." Well by the powers of grey skull, it worked on Pimp. Shit talk Shit talk shit talk I wish there was something more intelligent to say. Anywho I am going to place a link in the side bar ( just for shits and giggles). Aaron why didn't you tell us chalk lines can be used to stop ant invasions.

The bond

It's not everyday that you bond with about three hundred people at once. But, yes my friends. It has been done. It started off at about 8am Saturday morning. We all boarded the boat with bright smiles on our faces.....destination....Green Island. (Now before I get on with the story, I had been warned about this boat ride.)
Jamie and I got on the boat, and of course a window seat at the front of the boat was available. Great! Quickly, grab those two seats.
We did, the journey began........
With Taiwanese KTV music playing softly in the background. 20 minutes pass. It begins. Hwhaaaaallll! The boat erupts with laughter from my fellow passengers as an elderly woman lets the first roar of puke fly into the bag. I looked out the window to notice the waves were exceptionally large. 20-30 feet and the boat rolling up and down. My friend might not have been exaggerating at all. 5 more minutes pass. The sounds to follow were absolutely unbelievable. 10 seconds of Taiwanese music. Bwlaaahhhh! again.....bwlaahhhh! Arcgh! Splash! Hurl in the bag. Bwlaaahhhh! Cough! I'm not sure how to express the sounds of gurgling, puking and vomitting I heard, but I can tell you this continued until the end of the journey by most passengers on board. As time went on, the waft of Barf finally got to me. I looked at my darling girlfriend, pulled out my plastic bag and let it fly.
But on this memorable day, as I got off the boat, and looked my fellow passengers in the eye. I knew we had experienced something meaningful together, a common trait, a common bond. We were bonded by barf.

Canadian Pimp Deported

Pimp the local blogger extrodaire was last seen getting on the airport shuttle with Dug. He had muckclucks and a silk scarf in tow.I think he said " If the Eagles can't win, I isn't blogging and I is going ." Dug said "NOTHING".

Some souvenirs to bring home

This is the first of many wooden carvings I came across at a market in Taidong. This beautiful carving is about 4 ft tall. Amazingly next door, was an even bigger carving which was difficult to photograph due to size. If I could just figure out how to get it on the plane it would be a great surprise for Mom and Dad.

This second item was found in a jade shop. Ideal for gift giving holidays such as Christmas. What is it you ask? Well, it's a heart made of pure jade. This finely designed display case can be placed on your mantle over the fireplace, or better yet on your bedside table. Although lifesize, don't mistake this for a real heart. For decoration purposes only.

The latest I could find

for all the looking I did. From Nov 6th an article outlining the Danishers growingly cozy alliance with the GW agenda. And all for the sake of tiny, tiny Hans Island.

Virtual Bands

The marketing geniuses at EMI came up with a virtual rap band called Gorillaz.

Yeah, this is old news to most people since they've been around since 2001.

One obvious advantage of a virtual band is that the nerds that create them have no power and cannot make extravagant demands for, say, a bowl of M&Ms - green only.

Of course, that demand is not so hard to deliver anymore.

H.O.S.P. II - It's all about the guano - Clipperton Island

Discovered by Magellan in 1521, the only atoll in the East Pacific was named for Spanish-employed English pirate and mutineer John Clipperton. Over the years, it has been held or claimed by the French, the U.S. (see Guano Islands Act), the Mexicans, the Brits and the King of Italy. In 1917, the lighthouse keeper found himself to be the last man on the island, declared himself King and went to work on raping the remaining women before he was killed. Currently a French possession, Clipperton has been mostly inhabited by birds and crabs since the end of WWII.

Friday's Personal Ad

I love music. I like to sleep. I dig scrawny pale guys. I dislike mind-numbing, soul-crushing small talk. Please don't talk it to me.

I think I'm in love...but I'll need a time machine to take me back when I was scrawny and pale instead of fat and pale, like some bespectacled slug with a beer in his tentacle. (Cthulun image?)

Side note to Chaon: I had to download Destination Eschaton for some reason. Stop getting me to like your pale, scrawny guy music.
