Tonight I had dinner with Rick, his wife, and her parents. Then we played mahjong.
I had my greatest night of mahjong ever. I don't recall the exact totals of all the hands, because of 'self win,' 'wind position', etc., but the memorable details are there:
I know some of you may find this shocking, but I don't suffer a surplus of faith in humanity.
Just this week in one of my classes I advocated the wholesale slaughter of stupid people, preferably before they breed. It was right about the time I kicked the waste basket across the room.So it has been for me an incredibly rare and rewarding experience to let Mimi Leung paint my guitars however she sees fit. She's an artist (I mean like artartist), which...Read more
I met Mimi Leung a couple years ago when she watched COCKFIGHT's first (and last) gig. She had designed the gig poster, and I was intrigued.Her art both grabs and holds my attention; while the first is no great miracle, the second certainly is. I have the attention span of a chipmunk.

Of course, America is just like Hong Kong in that her Daddy will fix all this. I hope she gets in another accident and dies with the taste of her own blood in her mouth.

The above exclamation is in fact a hyperlink.
Yesterday (Sunday) started off well enough. I had congee for breakfast, picked up my flat (I pay my housekeeper to clean for me, not to clean up after me), and took a shower.
I was meeting AnD artist (and all-around great person) Mimi Leung to talk about something we're doing and also to just catch up since she's been in Australia for a while.
So I went to Sha Tin, the designated meeting place, and since I was there a little early I went into the Tom...Read more
