Last weekend we did another Lion Dancing performance at Floata restraunt.

The Master's son, a person who most of us do not really look up to, but he's a great lion dance drum player tho, was sitting with us.

The reason we don really like him cos well he's freaking old and he like's to hang w/us during performances and dinners.

Our old master, offered one of our female students father some money to have his son marry her daughter.

Haha...This is a guy who is about twenty years older than her, not only that, he had a devorice cos his ex-wife refused to wash his feet every day!...haha...

One year we were at Vancouver Island performing and the Master's Son kept on sitting with us for breakfast lunch and dinner. So I devised a plan to Serve the master with food first then after that every man for themselves.

We were like Pirannas in the water eating a leg of lamb. We leaft the Master's son a couple strands of noodles or a piece of green onion.

The next day durning dinner we see the master's son walk by and we welcome him w/open arms to sit with us. He refused cos he said he would not have anything to eat. Our plan worked!

Well last week durning the dinner the MC said that there are prizes to be won and they would come by the table and drop the prize to the winner, all we had to do is just to raise our hands.

So they did call one of our numbers, I raised my hands and I saw them confirming that they were coming with the prize.

Well the master's son was excited and he got up from the table and said " So why isn't there any one going up to p/u the prize?", I told him someone is coming to drop it off for us. "DEW!" (fuck in chinese), he picked up the ticket and marched to the front, as he was marching to the front stage, the prized was dropped off to me.

A couple of minutes later he comes back and said that they have dropped it off to our table.

I yelled at him in Chinese and said, " We know,I told you already, You're such a fucken retard!"

His buddies (the biker, and boat master) on our table laughed at him. "He's got you there!"

The wife is making me FAT.

It's a double standard world these days. Women are getting away with lots of things. Men just don't give a shit.

I remembered watching a TV commercial when a old lady made a comment on a man's ass.

Wow...imagine the opposite happened...A man making a comment on a woman's ass.

Or females in a strip club pulling down the guys pants and rubbing his nuts...That's ok cos they're just having a little fun...If a guy did that in a strip bar...He would of been tossed out.

My old boss she had a mug...on it, it said "Evolution of Power" on it it had a picture of a man's foot, then a picture of a man's shoe, then a picture of a woman's shoe. I was looking for a cup that had the same thing but at the end, after the woman's shoe it would have a man's shoe again.

Do you think I would get in shit for that? OF COURSE!! But for her it's just all for FUN! Bleah..

The wife is making me fat cos whenever I'm pissed or mad...I eat...I go out and eat by myself...usally need comfort food...Chinese, Japanese food is my comfort food. And I eat a shit load.

When I do something stupid and piss her off she doesn't speak to me for days...And when she does something stupid she just say oops and that's it.

There should be a men's rights group out there

Yesterday we had a dragonboat meeting...We were chatting w/prospects who might be dboating w/us.

There is this Sit Com I use to watch and it kinda reminds me of my wife and I. It's called "The Kings of Queens", but my father in law does not live w/us (Thank God).

Just the things the guy does and say reminds me of me and the how his wife takes it reminds me of my wife.

Well yestday I was talking to this guy and laughing and joking and stuff...he said to me..."Do you know what?", I'm like "What?" You remind me of a TV show.

I'm like "Really? Which one?" He goes on, "Have you seen the Sit com King of Queens?"

I laughed out loud...I said " You know...I've always told my wife that, but she's only seen couple of epsoides of the King of Queens."

The world will see how beautiful this city is and how crappy we drive here.

We had a multiculture thingy going on at our work place. It was great for five bucks we got to try food from 10 different countires.

I stayed away from the Chinese food and Pizza and had food from fried tuna balls from Brazil to smelly noodles from Persia.

I didn't see any Candian Steak or Poutine from Quebec tho, or the American Burger haha...

I think Canada is soo multicultural it's cool!

What is the story about the American Speed Skaters? I was watching TV last weekend, and I think there is a African American Racist skater (Shani Davis) that got Gold that just hates white ppl. What's w/that?

I'm not racist, I just don't like them all equally, that includes Chinese.

Yesterday was my wife's bday and we took her side of the family out for dinner.

Older chinese generation hates to spend more than $10/person while eating out. They expect a meal for a king for less than $10.

They just bitch and complain bitch and complain til you, and your wife will no longer have a appitie for any food.

Couple of years ago we took her family out for All You Can Eat Hot Pot. For $15 per person I personally think it's a great deal. Don't hafta wash the veggies and prep all the food and the best part is at the end you do not need to clean up. No dishes to wash no table you hafta worry about, no garbage to worry about.

But though out the whole night all we heard was...15 BUCKS?? Let's see 15 bucks x 5 people that $75!!! For 75 bucks we can buy lots of food for the week!

That's all we heard was whining and complaining. I took my dad out to White Spot once and he bitch and complained on how expensive the $8 burger was.

My cousin is having a wedding at the 4 Seasons Hotel...I guessing a four course high class meal with superb service...I told her that my wife would love to come and would really enjoy the meal...but the old folks will complain...

Word to the old...If you want your kids to take you out to eat more often...STOP BITCHING and just ENJOY THE FOOD!!! If you're bitter and wonder why your kids do not come and visit...think about it first...

Well cos I missed a couple of days of blogging...

Why do white guys get the Azn girls?

The Answer...

Yellow Fever

As I get older I can feel that it takes a longer time for me to heal. Last time I had a cold was I think about four years ago.

I remember I use to feel the cold coming and it would hit me on the same day, I would rest for one day then I was able to head back to work or school the next.

Now it's totally different...

I feel it coming on one day, then the next day I start to feel an itchyness in my throat, then it kinda hits me cos I start coughing, then boom head aches, and runny nose, coughing.

The healing process is long too...I'm still feeling the itchy throat and still coughing but I feel much better not. Might be my diabetes tho, but it also could be my *sigh* old age.

My wife just hit her big 30 today!

I wanted to go out with the wife yesterday night but I was still under the weather last night. I cooked dinner ate w/our homestay student and watched Figure Skating on TV.

I don't think for Valintines day we need to spend a hundred dollars on flowers and another hundred dollars on dinner and drinks to be a special romantic day.

When I was in bed a couple of days ago...I was thinking...wait there are ppl who read my blog daily...I better put something up cos they'll wondering what had happened to me.

So I dragged my laptop to my bed and typed something out quickly.

I get away with lots of things, that I do, that's why I love my wife to death.

Oh BTW...I was just at Supermarket...for those who are getting married this year...Heart shapes chocolates make a great wedding favors...get them now cos they're cheap after Valintines!!

sorry just feeling under the weather right now...I'll post tomorrow...

You know you're old when...You go back to your old high school and you see all the new teachers and they're your age.

Yesterday night one of our Kung Fu student invited me to her talent show at my old high school. Of course she was performing the Kung Fu set she had learnt.

I'm thankful I'm not a teacher...Because when I was watching the talent show when the cheerleaders were performing, all I could think of is that Kevin Spacey movie "American Beauty".

I can't help thinking "I'm that dirty old man that I dispised when I was in highschool." then I though..."I'm going to jail."

Kids these days are not the same when I was in highschool...they're just well more well developed and are dressed differently.

At the end of the talent show the teachers were performing...at that time I'm like...are those kids are they teachers? OMG I'm old they're all teachers.

Sigh...to be young and single again...

I had to dust off my sunglasses today ... Wow the weather here in Vancouver right now is awesome!

No kidding... here's a live cam link to our city Vancouver.

Vancouver, the 5th most expensive place to live. Why? Cos we have the mountians and waters.

Before 1986 my dad bought a brand new house in Vancouver for 115,000. Now...haha..I was looking at the Realestate news paper...$750,000.

I wished my dad had bought more places. We spent over half a mill for our place about 4 years ago. Now it's worth about $900,000.

What we need is more people and bigger roads in Vancouver.

I'm so tempted to sell it and move out of this place and live somewhere cheaper. Newfoundland?

Tuesday, February 07, 2006

1987 The Americans had entered a Free Trade agreement w/Canada. We both agreed to no tarifs for any trades with both sides of the country.

So now what happens if we sell our wood to the US?

That's right Tarifs. WTF? Bush is a big bully

Over 5 billion dollars in Tarifs we've been paying when we ship to the states.

Gee I wonder why so many other countries hate the USA and want to start wars.

I was watching TV last night and saw on the news and Bush said "Americans are addicted to Oil." It's more like they're addicted to any that gives them a right to steal and make money.

I'm not saying all Americans are like that but your leader makes you SUCK!!

Poker is a game of patients and bullshitters.

Made 10 bucks playing poker this weekend... Three buy-ins of $10 each...

I love to watch poker on TV and that is how I learn...but watching and playing is totally different.

There is sooo much emotions in playing...Is she bluffing? Should I bluff? Oh shit she called my all in!

There are bluffing tells...but there is reverse physcology...But the rewards are huge if you can read the tells.

Playing poker made me realize that no everyone is trust worthy...I wish I can play w/a buch of Christians sometimes. I have friends who play w/poker players who play in Casinos, I have friends who work in a Casinos, I have friends who just play on line, I have friends who just have good cards...

Haha...there is one time I was playing poker with. I asked him where he worked...he said or the Grand Casino...I'm like oh shit a shark sitting next to me. "So do you deal?" "Nope I'm a cook there."

Well this is the first day at my new job. I'm just glad I'm out of the place where I was b4. The upper managment was really bad and I can see it's much better here. Right now I do not have proper internet connection...buch of firewalls and stuff, so I can't upload any images properly, and I maybe delayed in posting...So don't worry about me I'm not dead...just slow...

Like I said before I'm a pretty forgiving person and this place I haven't been for a while, I went back and ate there today. Dim Sum...wow it is sooo much better. I've found out they had changed owners and managment three weeks ago.

Usually the food is great for the first couple of months and it'll prob go down the shitter again. So better eat-up now before it sucks

My wife loves chicken feet and when we take our Japanese homestay students for dim sum we make them eat the feet first.

It's freaking funny watching them try to eat the feet...They think is gross cos they know where these feet has been trotting on when they walk...Yup their own shit.

Mmmmmm Dim Sum...Yummy chinese food that will make you pass out if you eat too much and pass it out very fast.

Well we're going to an All You Can Eat Sushi today for lunch for my leaving...

I think Vancouver is one of the best place to have sushi. I've tried it in Cali, NY, Toronto...they all suck...

Last year we took my wife to this all you can eat sushi place and we had horrible service...Food was missing, food didn't come...it took us about four hours to eat there...it was that bad. We gave them a .75 tip.

Well I'm usually a pretty forgiving person...so a couple of weeks ago I went back there for lunch to see if they had changed.

Well I wanted the all you can eat lunch. The waitress said that because that I'm the only person eating I can't have AYCE. WTF? Ok fine since I sat down and settled on my seat I asked for a menu. I got the cheapest thing I could find, Chicken Udon.

As I wanted to pay for my bill, I found out I didn't have any cash...So I whipped out my Credit Card and the lady said that It was only $6.

I told her I didn't have any cash...She said to me agani like I was hard of hearing or something, "It's only $6". I said "I don't HAVE CASH."

She had the nerve to tell me that if I'm insisted in paying by Credit she will charge me 10% extra. Well I was pissed. WTF kind of rip off Nammer Sushi place is this? I said fine do it. And like most pissed off customers I didn't leave them anything for a tip and took off.

Don't goto Ebisuya in Vancouver on Broadway and Fraser...It fucken SUCKS.

Thursday, February 02, 2006

Well this is the second last day of working here in this department. I didn't mind working here it's just the upper management sucks here.

I'm just sick and tired of being the goto guy w/out the goto pay. I had a chance to be the workleader here but they decided to give it to someone else.

I know they need me here cos I'm the most technical guy with the same pay as the lesser technical ppl.

I told them I want to move on and leave this department. Don't get me wrong but the management is great it's just the upper management that sucks.

I've been told that I'll be leaving my manager...but it seems like they don't want to let me go cos my manager is telling me that I'm still reporting to her.

I was talking to my teamlead in the department I'm going to and he said that I will be reporting to a different manager. This is a F#$%^ed Up!

Sometimes I wish I was single again and just move out to China and say F*&^%^ You all and retire there. Sorry for this bitching session.

I've done something like this b4...but anyways...here's to another chain letter...

Chinese drivers are bad drivers...so what's the excuse for you non Chinese dirvers? Esp if you're a CAB driver...Ummm...don't you drive for a living?

Well yesterday my wife and I were looking for a parking spot to park for lunch, and this taxi driver, well not this guy but kinda looks like him, was backing in and forwarding out this parking spot...He turned out of the spot so I quickly turned in the spot.

The Mofo rolls down the window and yelled out in an Aribic or Indian accent "Hey dat is my spot!"

So I yelled out " ARE YOU A SHITTY DRIVER? ARE YOU A SHITTY DRIVER!! ANSWER ME!! I'M CHINESE AND I CAN PARK FASTER THAN YOU!"

Afraid he might Key my car I found another parking spot.

I didn't give up there..I yelled out to him and pointing to at the phone number on his cab "I KNOW YOUR NUMBER, I KNOW YOU NUMBER!"
He yells out " I KNOW YOUR NUMBER" Walking towards my car taking my plate number.

So what did I do? I called his company and made a formal complaint about this Shit driver.

I told his boss " This guy was tail gating me and he had and followed me to the parking lot, cut infront of me and took my parking spot and was uttering theats at my wife and I."

His boss said he's shut is radio down and is not recieving any more customers for the week, and had apoloziged to me.

I hate shitty drivers here in Vancouver.
