It's like watching Television

Oh, America - politics scandals from your neck of the woods are always so much fun. If only this stuff can last through Election Day. That would make me so happy.

It would also make me happy if Rep. J.D. Hayworth gets hit by a bus, but I would take this Foley thing costing him a seat any day.

Sorry, no China posts today, not much to write about really. International Bank Wire transfers a) suck b) expensive and c) were probably looked at up/down/left/right by the U.S. gov't as it left the states. Yea, FBI... I used my 650 bucks to squander vast amounts of opium on the afghani black market, come find me.

Please Mind the Gap, and the Congressman's penis.

Chinese National Day

So, Comrades, I had planned on writing a lengthy and witty blog entry about Chinese National Day. I wrote it, and I decided, I'm not very good at writing communist propaganda. So, I'll explain matter-of-factly instead.

Today was Chinese National Day, the day the Communist Party established the People's Republic of China. On this day 57 years ago is Mao Zedong's said the famous quote "The Chinese People have stood up."

The holiday is not as important in Hong Kong (because of its Communist attachments) than it is in the Mainland. However, we did have a pretty stunning fireworks show. Thanks to YouTube, I have uploaded for you all to enjoy the grande finale.



Hope you enjoyed that, it was pretty amazing to watch. Happy National Day everyone.

Please Mind the Gap,
Ken
