ShareThe rumors of a mini iPhone years ago compounded into giving China based manufacturers an idea. Build it! The result is an iPhone looking phone with a few interesting features, not shared with big brother 3G. For instance: 2 SIM card slots, minimum 16Gb, and “cute” appeal. Depending on your negotiating skills, you can [...]

ShareEvery so often, a great sign will come along and confuse the hell out of pedestrians. In this case, it’s two way traffic on a single lane. Huh? That seems dangerous given the skill of drivers in HK. Not sure what way to look, so I wait. And wait. And wait. At least I’m [...]

ShareThe only hope I have in life is to dress comfy and hope others are entertained as a byproduct. This ol fella must have similar goals, as I was pleasantly amused to see such a throw back in style in 2009. After discussing, this is what the “cool retiree’s” wear in Xiamen.
Maybe next time [...]

ShareThe past few days have been terrifying. Not only has the weather been fine, but the sky has turned a wierd color: blue. What happened to the usual yellowish gray? Do the world a favor and watch the promo bid on the left sidebar: help cleanup some beaches around the world. Let’s keep this [...]

ShareWhen times are tough, the answer long has been “drink it through”. Some take this literally. In this case, the ingredients of disaster are evident. Half finished beer, food spilled everywhere, alchoma, and a bucket for your spare change. I gave a fiver, because it was a holiday… And 5AM

ShareGrowing up, most of us had our playing with fire phase. Burn candles, toys, cats, and end up with burns or missing eyebrows. Judging from this car, I guess not everyone grows up.

ShareSome days working just isn’t appealing enough. That’s why hammocks and cots were invented.

ShareAlways wondering if graffiti has family? Yeah they do! Just sometimes they look… Distressed.

ShareNot often in Hong Kong do you stumble across interesting graffiti- and keeping with the aesthetics of life in HK, this character has on his watch. Not sure yet if it represents a brain or muscles, or a pink dough monster?

ShareI think the first time encountering raw chicken in a market, I was impressed. This time, grossed out. Raw chicken being picked through like $5 Bras in Kowloon Ladies market. Raw chicken, no sanitation, no gloves, just germs and salmonella. Wicked.

ShareAnother honest product name- this time it’s a food item. Needless to say, if they wanted to sell more of these ugly domes, they could have added a “tasty” or “delicious” to the beginning. It does look like a cowpie, so any adjective would help… Immensely.

ShareLate nights at Pacific Place when there is no one around is not a great time to stumble across this kind of cutout. Not to mention the blinking red eyes. I think a simple banner would have worked fine. Geeze…

ShareI should start out by stating I forgot a frame of reference for this picture. Sure the snausages look long, but the bottom shorter ones are already around one foot. Granted these have probably been on display for months, they get more eye contact from the local ladies than any guy could wish for. Yes, [...]

ShareNothing beats a good thunderstorm to help you sleep after a long day. The rolling bass reverb off the neighboring buildings, or the gentle lull of rain. Oh wrong! How about 12 direct hits within my block? Yeah. Great.

ShareAlways beware of preferential treatment. Especially when in a dark dingy alley way outside the normal tourism zones. For us locals, it’s all fine, just another Tuesday, but for the unsuspecting “lady tourist” it could be… Less fine.

ShareBuy 2 party beers, get one free. If the name doesn’t sell itself, perhaps the fact it is made in China? No? Then it must be the seemingly ‘old’ lettering. Having lived in HK most of my life- never once seeing this beer is just frightening. It may expire before adventurers actually drink it.

ShareOn the quest to find a new gym, I suddenly get hit with the greatest idea. Why look at paying to play with metal circles, when the best muscle workout is climbing. So… After this picture I started my first workout. Added bonus is the thrill of being chased and yelled at. Adds adrenaline to [...]
