Bruce

This is Bruce (Vinzons of Pearl in his certificate)... he was around 2 months old when I bought him for my mom. His job is 1) to entertain my mother, and 2) to help mom stay physically active even while at home.

Bruce is a brave assassin, but his efforts only go as far as Scrappy Doo, barking at the largest trucks, and always ready to pack a power punch. We may be the same man in many ways, but sad thing is, we don't look good when together. Six-foot guy walking this footlong ain't that manly so I rarely take him out.

Soon he will meet with Tina's chocolate toy poodle (Ginger?) and Alvin's white (April). In the meantime, it's etiquette bootcamp for our little Rambo.

Masterpiece

In one of my YM chats, I tried to create an artwork using the Doodle IMVironment. It had 16 crayons, 3 levels of thickness per color, and no soft edges. I just used a PC mouse to draw this thing and with some perseverance, I covered the whole canvas with my so-called work of art.

Today I look back at a fruit of my genius...

...the elements I put together didn't make sense at all. Boy, tree, rock, dark sky, bright sand (How do you survive there?). What the hell was I thinking?

Star TV's funniest

If you enjoy watching Hong Kong action comedies on Star Chinese Movies channel, these faces should be familiar to you. (Richard Ng Yiu-Hon, Eric Tsang Chi-Wai, Charlie Chin Chiang-Lin, Sammo Hung Kam-Bo and Stanley Fung Shui-Fan). I want to thank them for entertaining me on those weekends when I'm stuck at home, and for helping me learn a bit more of Mandarin.

Their movies were dubbed from Cantonese (?) to Mandarin, and then subtitled in English. Chinese subtitles are acceptable for differences in diction and accents, but this one is blown way out of order --> Subtitled Arab

Welcome!

I did some blogging about 2 years ago, but left it hanging back there in Blurty, and now I decided to move to a new home -- Blogger.com! It's neatly tied with Picasa software from Google, so I can upload and post new items as soon as I pick the right picture.

I've had lots of great experiences which I wish I had shared in writing, but I was too busy back then. Now I'm trying to reclaim the time I lost to start documenting again about whats new and ongoing with Chard's busy life. For the items past, maybe I'll touch them as I recall related events.
