Hong Kong

We finally got internet access in our apartment so I can post some pictures!

Remember how I always said I wanted an apartment with access to the roof, so I can have a bbq and get a great view of the city...well, I got that too. Okay, so the view isn't that great...

How about this:

Or this:

One cool thing about HK is that they have a really nice mall called Pacific Place. It makes the Pacific Place in Seattle look like K-Mart:

Last, but not least...this one's for you, mom:

Maybe you should get that on a shirt: "Joyce...give way!"

Free Mitch Hedberg Information

According to my new friend, Tracksy, a number of people have found my blog by searching for phrases such as: "sorry for the convenience", "sorry for the convenience escalator" & "escalator temporarily stairs" They were no doubt searching for one of Mitch Hedberg's funniest jokes, only to find my lame, updated twice a month, blog...sorry for the inconvenience....

So, I decided to at least post some links to Mitch Hedberg information who might have landed at my blog by mistake:

Have fun...blog temporarily mitch hedberg portal...sorry for the convenience.

bada, ba ba ba...I'm lovin' it...

As many of you know (that is the few of you, that read this blog) my wife and I will be moving to Hong Kong soon. Everytime I tell someone new about our move, I get the same reaction: "wow...huh...Hong Kong?" I try and tell people that it's not a 3rd world country, it's actually very developed. From as far as I can tell, it will have just about all the western conveniences we're used to...McDonald's for example. As I was thinking about this, I remember hearing how McDonald's in different countries serves different menu choices. So, I decided to check this out, to see what would be available in HK (thank you, internet) :

I'm eager to try these (and yes, this is in HK$, price is more like $1.30 for 4 piece):



This looks kind of interesting...they really like there flat bread, I guess:



Thank goodness, now I don't have to have them shipped to me...

Okay...so they can't all be winners:

For other non-HK McDonald's...I couldn't help sharing the following:

McDonald's Pakistan:

McDonald's Germany..."Big Rosti" Is that a burger with bacon and a hash brown pattie? Cam, you've got to tell me if that's it and if so, is it any good?:

Very funny joke

This has got to be the funniest blond joke I've ever read!

My Beautiful Wife

Beth has been getting on me for not posting to the blog for a while...so, it's only fair that I post a picture of her. This is still one of my favorite photos of her! Despite the fact that there's a line running through the picture due to the crappy camera I was using at the time.

Ok...so this isn't a photo of mine, but I couldn't resist posting this...it is too funny! I wish I knew how to create videos like this:
