Loose Change 911

[Torrent Link] 911 Loose Change I would never really classify myself as a conspiracy theorist. I remember reading the Operation Majority crap when I was a kid and being totally engulfed in the idea that there was a world of things happening that we, the public, weren’t allowed to see. Secret things like alien presence …

AIDS In China

Right, so I’m becoming a little too accustomed to posting about stuff I’ve read on other people’s sites, especially the ever interesting and insightful EastSouthWestNorth Blog. But if ideas had to be original, we’d all be in short supply. As such, I just finished reading “Being Alive Is Not Just An Instinct“, ESWN’s lastest post/translation …

A Lil’ Somethin’ For Everyone

If you come to my site for news about me… I’ve finally settled into my new routine. Teaching at a primary school as opposed to teaching at a private language school does comes with some differences. 1) More kids. At Future School I was teaching class sizes ranging from 5 to 19 kids at various …

Inboxinated

Hey, always in a rush to add little gizmos to my site that make it just the coolest thing since sliced bread (and you thought it was sliced bagels!), I’ve set up a Daily E-mail Update. So, if you like reading my site, keeping posted on what’s going on with me in China, but can’t …

Do On To Others …

Right, so does anyone else think the world is just stupidly retarded these days? And I don’t mean to throw the term retarded out there to offend anyone with special needs, as they are certainly more abled than the planet at large. I just read about this case in Afganistan, where an Afgan man is …

Worth A Thousand Words…

The Humanaught’s Photo Gallery So, it’s finally up. It’s not complete, it’s got a few kinks, and there’s no Dalian section (bit ironic I think)… but my photo gallery is finally complete enough that I’d thought I’d put a link on here for it. Check it out, and leave some comments about what you think.

Putting The Rough Back In The Diamond

Maybe about a year ago I was talking to my friend Matt about “old nobility” versus “nouveau riche”. To be honest, being from a country with a limited amount of direct history, these two terms were, well, foreign to me. I mean, I’m sure Canada has some nobility attached to it, but most of the …

New Apartment: The Tour

Download the video (if it doesn’t play above). Hey, so I finally got around to taking some photos, and even making a little video, of our apartment. It’s pretty sweet. For 1000 RMB ($142 CAN)/mo. we have a 2-bedroom, approx. 100 sq. metre place. Seventh floor, but hell, I need the excercise. [LEFT] The livingroom, …

2008: The Year of Manners

For anyone that has been to China, and certianly for those of us that live here, one of the hardest things to deal with is that many [not all] Chinese people seem to have a complete lack of any sort of manners. Near every day walking to or from the bus stop I pass no …
