My friend mentioned Brass Eye so I checked it out and… man Korean needs a TV show like this… I SO would love to work on such a show.
@JamesTurnbull No link I can find… I read it in a volume from the collected writings of Jung ages ago. And happy birthday to you, early…
@CS_sean Heh, thanks. Funny last hashtag. 🙂
@jasonsanford Thanks!
@SurfsideJack Thanks! I actually qualified a long time ago, but my firs application got lost in the aether, and then I got busy… 🙂
@JamesTurnbull Um. Now you know one story, at least. Good advice, as long as you can afford a period of unemployment.
The new secretary: why’d they hire someone with a penchant for missing class, and doing half-assed work? She already seems bored!
Clarkesworld #42 is up, with a weird little story of mine included among other great stuff! http://is.gd/9wIHT
@JamesTurnbull Remember how Jung congratulated his panicked neighbor on job loss? When he happily found a new one, Jung advised therapy.
@JamesTurnbull huh… may be you should both get one?
@metropolitician Can’t buy anything from the music store without one.
@metropolitician Well, I think I’ll be picking up one this week, since I lost the iPod touch in Indonesia. Wish I had a US credit card, tho.
@JamesTurnbull It said that the IMF was in ’93, and had lots of other details wrong. I was just being mean and sarky.
Here in Jakarta, there’s a major demonstration on downtown… no idea what it’s about, but they’re purposely blocking traffic on main roads.
@czilka Yeah, no kidding. This time, it was very likely a coconut milk curry. Grrr.
@JamesTurnbull BTW Ha, tosser move. “I’m Korean-[Australian]. Here are some utter and complete inaccuracies about Korea.” Great blog concept
Am rather rottenly food poisoned, by the way. Which makes for an interesting last night in country.
I’m probably *not* going to be swallowed up by a tsunami, if you were worried. But my flight may or may not be delayed tomorrow night.
@JamesTurnbull thanks for the info, saw the same elsewhere… hate KT’s service but ah well… wonder what the 3G is like.
@JamesTurnbull I hear non-Koreans can actually get an iPhone now? So that’s the replacement. And a recently sold story shall foot the bill.
@JamesTurnbull Not a scam, just impatience and a short memory and distraction and an Xray clogged by a granny’s boxes. Argh. But…
@JamesTurnbull …inaccuracies, so I just called him on placing the IMF during 1993. Er… Yeah, no, homey.
@JamesTurnbull Hmmm. I wonder if he deleted the blog after the comment I left? I wrote that I couldn’t be bothered pointing out all the
@easy2537 Whee! LHC! It’s the end of the World as the Know It! (Haha. Not.)
Back in Depok. Lost my iPod. Traumatized. Fucking airport security. And some Chinese granny with 14 boxes to be scanned. Forgot it at xray..
@JamesTurnbull The green soju bottle article: wow, how many facts can someone get wrong? Ahem… IMF’93? Smoking? Cross chest? Argh.
Goping out for a swim in a bit!
@easy2537 What’s happening in late March? 🙂 Anyway, looking forward to seeing you!
@jeremiahtolbert 🙂 You should email me your postal address, though. Hint, hint… (Tho I’ll wait to send you anything till I’m in Korea!)
@easy2537 Oooh, I should meet you guys and discuss Launch Pad a little bit with you guys. It was similar in some ways, different in others.
Today is a lazy day of hanging about, enjoying this somewhat overpriced Japanese resorty place.
@mslongjr live? Oh me oh my…
@easy2537 Yup, in Bali till Sunday night. How are you? Did you go up to the Sobaeksan again? Or just enjoying Seoul?
@jeremiahtolbert Actually, it does, but more about that later… 🙂 In a good way, I promise.
@jeremiahtolbert Heh, but, Jer, the fact I’m in Indonesia has no bearing on the ice and snow you’re enduring, does it? Heh…
@CS_sean Ah. I have another friend with the same FIL/MIL situation. Hm. No train runs to that town, I’m guessing? Bottlenecks are de rigeur!
@JonathanStrahan LOL That’s fair, though I am far from the yucky part of Bali. 🙂
@CS_sean …but: why did you drive *anywhere* Seollal weekend? I thought only newbies did that?
@CS_sean Which is one reason I rarely wish I had a driver’s license. Driving in Korea is either way too slow, or sociopathic.
@CS_sean The special place is called Depok, a suburb of Jakarta. A short visit to Bali was the last I could do to alleviate the pain. 🙂
I am in Bali, and probably you are not. Nyah-nyah. 🙂
Starship Sofa podcast for a Hugo? Why not? http://bit.ly/9Eg8Kj
@mslongjr I’m gaping at that link… wow. Of course someone invented the chicken nugget, but,… wow.
RT @mslongjr: @gordsellar Stop, you’re making me hungry. And reminding me of “Nugget Man”: http://bit.ly/z5Lk9
@easy2537 Happy New year to you, too! How are you, man?
@mslongjr Those you get at McDonald’s with the new McDeadly Meal…
@JamesTurnbull Oh, yeah, Vatican2 affected pretty much everything in the Church in some way. “How can we stop losing folks?” Change it all!
@mslongjr yeah, it does, actually. Ha. Free CD by _____ in every box. (On the back: enter to win a Glock!)
