C-I-L-L my landlord

So the building manager/landlord went into my room twice yesterday. I guess I should feel thankful.

1) The manager/landlord and one of my managers at work went into my room to receive the delivery of my washing machine. It was very nice of them to stay there while it was installed!

Very nice, indeed! I just wish I had known....especially after being told that no one could get into my room...

2) Then, later, the manager/landlord went into my room to leave a package sent from Mongolia. To the best of my recollection I don't know a single person from Mongolia and haven't been in my new room long enough to have told anyone my address. Of course, the package wasn't for me, probably for the previous resident.

I'm expecting my manager/landlord to go back into my room today to retreive the package...

Dark and lonely on the summer night.
Kill my landlord, kill my landlord.
Watchdog barking - Do he bite?
Kill my landlord, kill my landlord.
Slip in his window,Break his neck!
Then his houseI start to wreck!
Got no reason --What the heck!
Kill my landlord, kill my landlord.
C-I-L-L ...My land - lord ...Def!

{Thanks to a colleague of mine who found this on the Internet for me.}

Bad news!

When I saw the papers this morning I thought I would be able to c-i-l-l my landlord. According to the Korea Herald: [S Korean president] Lee prepares to pardon 1.5 million.

That would have been good news because I could c-i-l-l my landlord, then get pardoned for it. Unfortunately, he is only pardoning people convicted of economic crimes.

Sweet food

I love sweets. Sweet food. Sweet women. Sweet drinks.

Based on the recommendation of a friend I tried 고구마 돈가스 (go gu ma ton ga suh). It is sweet potato pork cutlet. Love it. Only problem is that the place I went in Myeongdong served it with cheese sewed in.

Michael Vick ain't got nuthin on me!!!

After football player Michael Vick admitted that he had been running a dog-fighting business I wrote that he was an idiot. If he was going to engage in such activity he should have gone to Indonesia or somewhere else. He certainly had the money to do so at that time. If he knew then what he knows now then he would have spent $10 million to run his dogfighting ring in Manila. Today I did something that probably not even Michael Vick ever did: I ate dog meat. I never expected that I would do so. It is a bit scandalous because Koreans don't just kill the dogs and eat them. Rather, they will beat them to death while they are still alive. That allegedly is to get the adrenaline flowing which allegedly makes the meat more tender which allegedly improves a man's stamina. I had told a friend that I wanted to give it a try. But as we sat down to eat I said: "I want to try this but don't give me any details until after we are finished eating." It just looked like regular me...

A defector and a refugee join South Korea's National Assembly

Two North Korean refugees will be joining South Korea's National Assembly. They have taken two different paths to get to this point. The defector : Thae Yong-ho was part of North Korea's elite. He was educated to represent North Korea, going to the best schools and having the best tutors the North Korean system could pay. He was working as a diplomat for North Korea when he escaped. He was intimately aware of the flaws with North Korea's system, as an insider expected to lie for it. He could have continued with the easy life of a diplomat. The refugee : Ji Seong-ho was starving in North Korea when he was injured in an accident, he passed out while on a train and ended up getting run over by it. He lost a leg and suffered in many ways. After he went to China in search of food, he was arrested, tortured for a week, had his crutches taken from him. He later escaped, hobbling across China and SE Asia. North Korea had become unbearable for him, living with only one leg. A ...
