My Masterfiece

February 1st, 2006 · 11 Comments

checked my weight yesterday and I’ve gained a bit in the last week. When you’re not fasting, you retain water, so I expected a small uptick. I’ll be checking daily to see what the real number is. I’m not alarmed. As long as I make it back to SF without having gained too much, I can call that a success.

I think my wife is trying to set up my friend Igor with her friend Betty. The language barrier is huge. Odds are not in favor. I put down $50.

went to a huge Asian art exhibition - they turned a whole river park into a museum, with floating creations of cloth, wire, and light. It was spectacular. Each country in Asia had a contingent. I don’t know who won, but I think, in the end, we all did. And that’s… one to grow on!

There were also close to a half a million people there last night. It’s kind of hard to have 100% fun when you’re always checking your pockets and your camera. After mine got stolen in the Dominican, I do everything but Duct Tape it to my hand.

what the hell is the tape for?

When looking for a quote to put on your fake DVD cover, next time try and understand what it means, OK?

apparently this is a crossing for men and their flying girlfriends.

I have no idea what a masterfiece is, but if it’s the way Dismas and I use that word, I’m glad I didn’t touch this box.

we now pause for station identification.

not just any yatch - a DYNAMICAL yatch.

More wrinkles than an elephant’s sac.

UPDATE: I used to have a picture of a kid peeing in the middle of an alley at the top of this post. I got a few comments like, “Okay, dude, why the kid penis?” but I usually don’t remove things once they’re up. I’m not afraid of making mistakes. When I wrote this post I was exhausted, tired, and it was kind of funny to me at the time. Recently, a couple of pederasts left some nasty comments about it and it had to come down. I’m all for free discourse, but once again, the NAMBLAns ruined things for the rest of us.

    The man with the tape on his eyes. Why?

    Probably severe drooping eyelids from the onset of old age. One of my folks had surgery to correct the beginings of the same thing. It’s pretty much an outpatient thing in the US. In China, it’s probably not as widely available - hence his solution.

    Not really an amusing photo unless you’re into pathos.

    Dynamical yacht is what is meant. That is a term in the yacht business apparently.A 10-man one must be a pretty big deal.

    Also, cross-wrinkled neck means that fellow spent a lot of time with his head back looking up. Catching water dripping from a trickling source?

    Regarding the “most boring” quote - I’ll give them a point (out of ten thousand) for at least using a review of the movie in the box!

    Seriously, thanks for the laughs. Stumbled across your site, and have not stopped laughing. I really want to know about the sign. I think it means, “If you run fast enough, your girlfriend will fall.” Who knows?

    Those tapes are for the losers in Mahjong. Instead of gambling with money, they use tapes to show who is losing.
