Since I’m Up…
Edit: Let me see if I can get some money with a Google Adsense link on this post 
I got Helen that job yesterday. Worked out just the way I planned. I might even already have someone lined up to fill the spot when she leaves.
I finally saw “The Life Aquatic.” My brother made a big deal of the movie. So did Helen. I thought it was great, but I don’t think I would hype it up to just anyone. I’m sure it’s not some people cup of tea. The movie has a bunch of quirky little scenes that are funny just because. Then it has a couple of kick ass gunning scenes plus a close up of the crazy eyes. Very nice.

Very cool Bin-lan girl! (But overly dressed for the profession) Truly Taiwan. Will they come out with a beetle nut stained taxi cab too?

Man I really want one of those! Can’t seem to find them anywhere here in Taoyuan. Where did you get it and how much?
Have a look at my betelnut girl documentary trailer:
