My head is still spinning. I had a disturbing conversation tonight with a Taiwanese gentleman in his seventies. He told me that the Taiwanese people are so afraid of losing a war with mainland China and being conquered that virtually every household has specific drugs on hand that parents can use to kill their children and then take to end their own lives rather than live under Chinese rule. He seemed completely serious but I'd never heard of that. Can he be right that a whole nation has a sort of Masada complex? I knew the Taiwanese were hard-core and sort of like Asia's version of Israelis, but that's just horrible.

It's so funny watching my pit bull try to play with my cat. The cat is just being a cat an laying on a cardboard box that he found, and the pit is trying to get his tail and nip at his ears. Eventually the cat gets so annoyed he gets out of the box and chases the pit down the hall.

ER- That's interesting because trade and so forth has opened up a great deal in the last decade.

It is easy for people to believe that everyone around them shares their outlook and is just as they are: seeing things the same way, thinking the same thoughts, living the same way.  That degree of uniformity seems extreme and unlikely without some sort of enforcement.  I would think it is very possible this person was projecting his view on his whole nation.  Also very possible he was exaggerating in order to make a point; or just messing with you.

Have you ever listened to a song that you haven't heard in a long time, and when listening to it, you remember why you stopped listening to it? I'm having that moment now.


Also, please three more karma.

A) Buddha taught that desires keep one earthbound.
B) Buddha claimed he transcended all desires and became the Buddha.
C) All accounts of Buddha's life demonstrate he clearly retained desires.
D) Buddha was a fraud.

Today, while flipping through channels on one of the TVs in the break room at work, I came across this Twitter hashtag on Fox News: #TheBlob. I watched eagerly, but there was no mention of flesh-dissolving space phlegm, so I was quite disappointed.

You're right on that one. Still hoping for that Blob re-remake sometime this decade, by the way.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
