The Dude would most definately make that scooter look cool. Not to mention it probably goes about a billion miles on what I spend to fill up my Suburban. Hmmm, maybe I will add one of those to the Christmas list.

Just picture me on it now!

Man I been on SMF way too long, When I saw the baby tank I didn't think of the 5:00 traffic, all I thought of was heat the barrel to white hot, bend it skyward for a vent and make a mobile smoker out of the thing. I am seeking help even as we speak.

These pics are boring
So tonight im headed out for turtle soup and some pictures of Orchard road... Maybe get some Lady Boy photos

Anyway. I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving..

This is a fresh fruit stand down by the office.. I bought some Jack Fruit from here and liked it LESS than the Durian so if you have had Jack fruit the durian is better

The House of the Runs


This is the place where I eat lunch when at the shipyard. This place just looks aweful, they serve about 700 people for each meal but I really like it. Its all local food and its cheap. around 2 us dollars for more than I usually care to eat. They have a lot of vegatables and curry of some kind. The best is the muton curry with these chewy bread pancake looking things. Heres todays lunch and some of the boys I work with. They are the ones in Orange...Tonight is gonna be Turtle Soup and Frog pouridge so I will make sure to get photos....Later Taters...Forgot to mention that there is an Indian dealer and a Chinese dealer. I usually hit the Chinaman..

Mi Amigos


Indian food...Shrimp with way too much bread, fried fish, muton curry

Chris,
Just found this thread, I'm in Qatar at the moment, most of these things I can relate to as I live in Thailand. The picture of the Durian that you posted at the first looked like Jack Fruit. In Thailand they have about 10 people die a year from eating the Durian. When my wife eats it she eats another fruit of some kind to "cool" herself off, as the Durian causes her to have hot flashes.

The amount of fruits in the Asian area is umbelievable. The Thai food is the hottest in the region, those little peppers about 1/4 to 3/8 inch long with set your mouth on fire, and you will not taste the rest of your dinner, or anything for about the next 3 hours.

They cut up meat worse here in Qatar than in Thailand, at least there (Thai) you can reconize some of the parts, here it's like they put it on a chopping block and stop cutting when it's in 2" pieces.

Well you succeeded in making me homesick, I'll be here for 4-6 months more.

Charlie

This Thread just keeps getting better and better. Question though, about Saaid, Osama, Barak, ALX, and Fidel were you counting from the Left or the right. Is AlX wearing his hardhat like he should be or is he the Shifty looking guy with the beady eyes that has that criminal look, 2nd from the right? I'd watch that guy if I were you.

Lighten up ALX I'm just kidding...

I actually got a misty feeling when I learned that One of the guys bears your name too.

Several of the shops in Vancouver's china town have really weird smells especially as you enter them. Some are really bad as if you accidentally stepped into an outhouse. Some shops have the most wonderful spice smells and aromas that you can imagine. I went into a Chinese pharmacy in Richmond BC. to see if they had After-Bite for a Hornet sting I got at a fruit stand. The pharmacist took a look at it, grabbed an onion, cut it in half and pressed it on my sting. Instantly the pain disappeared. He charged me 20 cents for the onion.

Caning or not that is a cool looking cop shop.



While my wife and I were having lunch in the local University college lunchroom. We met two delightful young girls from Beijing who's assignment for their English as a second language course was to poll the Canadians on Campus as to what our Christmas Holiday meal consisted of. At first they were painfully shy asking such personal questions of total strangers. But it was probably my incredible charm that eventually won them over....... ( even I don't believe that whopper )
They were dumbfounded to learn that most Canadians eat Turkey on special Holidays. Both looked at us and shook their heads and said nooooo! Obviously not believing us.
Their guess was Beef , Pork or Chickens , certainly not Turkey. They even asked if we were kidding them. One said they had never even seen one.

Later we learned that the whole class had the same assignment and the next day were taken to a Turkey farm and given the whole spread with all the trimmings.

CheapChallee .... hint....Qatarview???
