There’s something weird about the fingernail on the thumb of the hand doing the thumbs-up gesture. Is the fingernail on the wrong side of the finger? Curiouser and curiouser.

The Korean in the first photo says the rather neutrally toned “Hamggae keotneun gil,” i.e., “the way (or road) [we] walk together.” The English, written in a more aggressively declarative tone (“We walk together!”), is decidedly not an exact translation.
Am admiring the before/after photos. Great testament to your progress.

Lots of green, manicured spaces where you are. I envy you.

No yang without eum, I guess (“eum” is how Koreans say “yin”). And given how you’re significantly healthier than before, I’d say that, for some things in life, at least, you do get to choose. I tip my hat to you for having made many right choices.

I was expecting “Bad Moon Rising.”

It’s nice when good deeds ripple outward. The world can always use a bit more of that. Kudos to you and to Loraine.

A most ambitious meal. I shudder to imagine cleanup.

My condolences to you, to Chris, and to all who have been touched by this tragedy. Very sad news.

Happy, slappy Birthday! Another trip around the angry star. I’d call for wine, women, and song, but given your outlook these days, it might be better to call for darts, beer, and biking.

Most excellent.

Great pics! I went for a long creek walk last night (great, cool evening—a foretaste of fall) and have spent today mostly lazing around. By the way, how far/long did you bike?

Well, happy birthday (in advance…?)! That was one quick year.

When I was looking at your post on my cell phone, the Arby’s photo was so small on my screen that I started to wonder, “What the hell is that thing on top of the sandwich? A cookie?”
For what it’s worth: here are other songs whose lyrics contain “in my life.”
BTW, can you turn off that mind-fucking Facebook feature? Do you want to?

I’m guessing that the saying portrayed in that final picture is “Time heals giant vaginas.”

Love that Onion pic. Speaking of moving in intellectual lockstep: have you seen rightie artist Sabo’s take on Google’s “diversity” problem? Here.
In other news… how long do you think it’ll take you to reach your money-saving goal? (I suspect you’re actually dragging your feet when it comes to leaving Korea. So stay!)

Sandals inside the house?!? Oh, the humanity!
It is indeed a nice-looking grill. Long and well may it serve you.

An uncommon alignment of the planets this is—the appearance, in force, of Clan McCrarey, standing fast and proud upon the brae, kilts and manly tackle flapping in the breeze, claymores and battleaxes in hand!

They look like good folks.
You sober today?

Things are going from final to final-er. The great leap across the pond is coming soon!

Not just human scum, but possibly ultra-conservative, too! Good God, you’re evil.

I found that everything in that paragraph made sense except for the vague phrase “increase positive behaviors.” I have no idea what that means, and that’s the phrase on which the whole paragraph depends since you’re obviously supposed to have metrics that allow you concretely to measure the increase in those “behaviors”—such that you’ll see a 2% increase over the next two years, and a 5% increase over a five-year term (I guess that’s an average of 1% per year). So what does it mean to “increase positive behaviors,”and how do you measure that? I gather that “MSCS” will do the tracking and measuring… but how?

How did some of those pics (the 2nd and 6th) get flipped horizontally?
I think that’s my kinda Jesus.

We men are doomed to leave behind us a trail paved with “ones that got away.” Some get away because we never tried to chase them. Some get away for reasons beyond our control. Some get away because we play catch-and-release. Alas.

Starting up and running your own bar sounds like a brilliant idea to me. Too bad you’re not interested, but I get your reasoning.
Meantime, may you find the bar you’re looking for.

Am sitting here trying to think of a clever comment. At first, I wanted to write, “Maybe the cosmos is trying to tell you something,” but then I realized that this isn’t about the toxicity of bar culture in general: it’s about the lameness of juicy bars in particular. So scratch “cosmos” language.
I guess the practical questions are: how far out of your way are you willing to go to get what you want? How close is it to the nearest town or city with non-lame bars? And can you bike there? And would it be safe to bike back home after drinking?

And the Army goes rolling along
Great pics!
So when is Yongsan finally going to be emptied out?

«« Back To Stats PageWelcome back! As for poundage: I need to get DOWN to 225 pounds.
It’s good to know that, when you do finally settle in the PI, you’ll feel at home at least to some degree. It’s nice to be a known quantity.
