May I amend this...

Although I haven't posted here for quite some time now, I recently came across a profound quote by G.K. Chesterton during our Lawyer's Christian Fellowship meeting today:

In a question posed by the Times Newspaper of London asking, "What's Wrong With the World Today?",

His reply:  "Dear Sirs, I am".  Sincerely yours, G.K. Chesterton.

Me too Mr. Chesterton...  me too

I'm so... "what's the opposite of shame?" of you little rudiger....

Random 121

What's the opposite of shame?  Pride?  No...  that's too far...  How do I feel about rudiger?  let's just say, "I feel less shame"... 

Rudiger had her first gig @ the prestigious 'den' @ Mac Hall yesterday night.  I had to battle thousands of screaming young boys and girls just to get a seat... 

OK, OK...  In all seriousness, I'm so proud of you little rudiger...  in fact, so proud of you that I've kept my end of the bargain upon hearing how well you performed:

I'll return your pet sea-lion tonight, 'Alive and Well'.

love,

your big brotha...

And the Award Goes to...

ME!

Here is a 'foto' of me as Shoeverine (Wolverine's illegitimate half-brother).  Instead of claws on my hands, I fight crime with my shoes.  Tragically however, due to the biohazardous nature of the shoes, I've had to amputate both hands after donning the costume.  How does such a heroic man type this page you ask?  Let's just say that my little sister, little rudiger trieu is typing this as we speak.  However, I will no longer take any further questions about how I go to the bathroom.  Little rudiger also refuses to field any more questions.

However, I'm extremely proud of winning the award for the "Costume that obviously had the least amount of help from parents" that nite.  You win some, you lose some...  in this case, it was my hands. 

Also, upon hearing that I received the aforementioned prestigious award, my half-brother Wolverine (on the left) went into a jealous rampage.  However, I emerged victoriously and the latest reports indicate that Wolverine is still in a coma somewhere...


Pursuant to my last post, "what happened to my hands?"

To Rudiger's relief and tremendous joy, my hands have miraculously grown back and I no longer require her 'assistance'.

Long story short about how my hands grew back:  I attended a Joel Olsteen Prosperity worship service in the US and where my hands grew back after fervent naming and claiming, or 'blabbing and grabbing'. Sure, it's only been a few months, since the fingernails have yet to grow back, and I have to get used to these wretched hooves.  However, these hooves enabled me to compete in the latest of my wacky adventures:  Loveboat challenge, 2007.

A group of Chinese men wanted to show the Japanese that we too could heartily compete in eating contests.  Sure, we originally had 10 contenders, but 4 of them perished at sea whilst falling overboard the 'SS Loveboat'.

Out of the final 6 contenders, I came in 3rd.  2 others were disqualified because they couldn't finish their boats.  Whilst some may think that third is extremely disappointing, I'm glad I came in third instead of second because if I came in second, I would have won the award of 'first loser'. 

Here are some snapshots of that gruelling event:


Above:  the contenders priming themselves before the 'main event'.


Above:  My friend Ken finished his loveboat in half an hour or so.  Look at his mocking smile...  The runner up finished their's 17 hours later.  (Think about it:  The race began @ 2 PM)...  Some of also lost our jobs, dignity, and the restaurant insisted that we never come back again.

These preceding pictures are a telling indication of why it was the best 25th of February in the history of mankind.
