Chewin in the Chung

Well, I thought I would have some good pictures from Xitou to post, but aside from one kind-of-cool spider picture, all of the stuff downloaded from the digital camera turned out to be either blurry pictures of scenery, drunk pictures of me naked, or drunk pictures of my wife naked. And since there are never any pictures of naked people posted on the internet, I guess we will just miss out on the whole photoblog aspect this week. Unless somebody gives me money.

The Ferret writes about Chistianity and recent political nastiness, and really knocks one out of the park. 599 Comments. For the record, I have never and never will use the term 'Jesus Freak'. Everything else I might say about the post has been covered there in the responses.

I need a good plumber. Do any Taichungers know of a competent plumber who won't do a quick jury-rigged job on repairs? How about that guy that advertises in 24/7? Calls himslef the 'home truck' or somesuch. Did you know that the term 'jury-rigged' comes from 'jury-mast', an improvised mast for sailing to replace one that has broken?
