最近政府弊案吵的沸沸揚揚, 最近又爆發出行政院長謝揆打電話給不斷報料的立法委員邱毅, 主動"溝通溝通," 卻又引發了"皇帝娘"風波~ 姑且不論到底謝長廷有沒有講"皇帝娘," 或他為何在這敏感時刻打電話給這麼敏感的人物, 聽到他對邱毅所說"誰說謊就死全家"的毒誓所做出的回應, 我只能說謝院長大人,您屌啊!
if you don't know what he said, 他的回應是,

邱毅所發的毒誓是假誓,因為網路都說「全家就是你家」

.......O_o

Oh yeah~ I finally ran into Kevin, Cindy and Randy over MSN!!  I was bitching about the results of the Golden Horse Award (Oscar of Taiwan) with Kevin while trying to figure out how to open Cindy's real Xanga and talking shit about Randy AND talking to Randy about penis all at the same time.  Man, I had a GREAT time!

Though I've been ingesting lots of freshly fried chicken steaks and tapioca milk tea thus taking in a crazy amout of saturated fat that has probably make itself comfortable around my arteries and my already-existing love handles, I haven't gained any weight!  But like what I told Kevin, the only reason for the miraculous lack of weight gain is probably that all my muscle has, alas, dissolved into pure lipid...great, just great...   

Panasonic has launched a portable karaoke system in the form of a microphone with a removable SD card.  I am not sure if it's only in Taiwan or not, but if it is I wouldn't be surprised.  I think the Taiwanese's devotion and craze over karaoke deserve to be studied under anthropology, karaoke has transcended into a part of the culture.  On the weekends, we don't do baseball or soccer, we do karaoke!  If you got a wedding, toss the microphone instead of the bouquet!  If you got a death, don't be sad, Buddhist chanting along with karaoke will certainly send your loved one into the Land of Perfect Bliss!  It is a world surrounded by karaoke chain stores and full of people like William Hung, who are way too convinced by the lies of their friends and loved ones and way too eager to believe that one day they will hit it big and become the next superstar (you should've seen some of those karaoke competitions on TV, I mean, I was utterly speechless... I would rather get a paper cut on the eyeball than to finish listening.  Yes, they were that painfully bad.)  Maybe the National Defense Department can research into this phenomenon and perhaps collaborate with Panasonic to develop a new offensive system with the Chinese slogan, "¤H¤â¤@¤ä³Á§J­·,¤j®a¤@°_¨Ó½m¥\,¥x®ü¦w¥þ¾a§A§Ú,¤Ï§ð¤j³°«Ø¤j¦P" and the English slogan, "A microphone at hand keeps the Communist away" (this is for all of you English readers).  

I think I am way too self-conscious about everything in my life, and I know it is a limpid manifestation of my sickening insecurity.  I am very self-conscious about my English, something that can be excused by me being a fob but ultimately it points back to my insecurity, and that's why it takes so damn long for me to post (not that anyone cares).  I am very self-conscious about my looks, my weight, the way I am perceived, people's opinion of me, and everything else, ranging from the very big things in life to every useless detail in a day.  If insecurity can power life, then I think I will be immortal, forever trapped in such maddening powerlessness.  I think it's only appropriate to end with the monologue about the immortal,

"I am a Watcher, part of a secret society of men and women who observe and record, but never interfere. We know the truth about Immortals - in the end, there can be only one. May it be Duncan MacLeod... the Highlander."

I loved that show...
