Somewhere in the fictional version of New York City, Samantha Jones and Carrie Bradshaw are shedding tears for me. After 9 months of living in Taipei, I’ve just about given up on men in Asia.
I’m not converting to lesbianism by any means, but I suppose I’ve abandoned the idea that I will meet anyone worthwhile [...]

After Taiwan’s Opposition, the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), has won the legislative by-elections, underground radio stations triumphantly broadcast the news of victory. The radio presenters didn’t forget to remind their audience: “Taiwan has succeeded! We have taught the Kuomintang government a lesson!

Do you make jokes while teaching that make you laugh but go over the kids heads? I do and I’ll share them with you.

I got a cool mount that allows me to attach my camera on my scooter. Unfortunately the scooter is a little too bumpy to get great footage on, but I was still able to get a couple observations about Taiwan driving on tape.

Today January 9th, 2010 I arrived at the Brickyard in Kaoshiung for another great event call Black Reign, and the place was soo packed up with people.

A Christmas Story
Here is a little Christmas story submitted by our friend, Manesh.
According to an old and well-known legend, a
week before Christmas, Archangel Michael asked
his angels to visit the earth. He wanted to
know if everything was ready for the
