I may have mentioned before that I really LOVE watching real life car chase/crash videos on youtube. I don't like them in movies, however. But I love real life footages. www.shine.cn/news/metro/1904082640/Keep an eye on the Shanghai newspaper, every so often they will show video such as this...wreckless driving. Moped riders have the misconception that if anything happens it’s always the vehicle drivers fault and they will get a big payout (if still alive). Well, in this case it is. But a couple of weeks ago they showed two incidences where the moped riders ran the red at an intersection and the driver had no opportunity to avoid the moped rider and they got crushed to death. In those cases the police ruled the moped riders were at fault, and the vehicle drivers did not need to payout.

I just remembered a joke. Can't remember who made it. But let's say your president says he's shutting down the border. No one can come in because there's no room. Umm...Wyoming! And we have North Dakota and South Dakota! No other country has even one Dakota!

During my breaks from Chinese study, I've been watching a lot of random stand-up comedy on YouTube. People I've never heard of. Instant entertainment.

Woke up this morning because my right calf cramped up. Hate it when this happens. You need electrolytes. I never cramp. Never. Also, you may have been dehydrated. Water and fruits will take care of this. Drink and eat frequently. Bananas, avocados, beans, kiwi, yogurt. All of them. Just open your mouth while looking up at the ceiling and throw those suckers in.

Bill Hader is my favorite "celebrity." I can watch him in anything. He's the only guy who can make me tear up from laughter. He also laughs a lot at the most mundane things. I don't know if this is a nervous tic.

Purchased an ERP-like software to help track PO's and such. Entire software is in Chinese, so they requested we purchase a separate server installed with Windows Server 2012 R2 and SQL 2012 R2...in Chinese. <gulp>
Found out we can install Windows Server 2012 R2 with multiple display languages...can add English. Crisis averted!

Was doing a search on Milos, Greece, and an image of Milos Sweet Tea popped up. Which reminded me to post that Milos Sweet Tea is pretty good. Had it the last time I was in Florida, taste real not like the bottled Lipton, Nestle and others.

I don't know why I was so riveted watching this seizure-caught-on-dashcam drama play out in real life:
Reminds me of that Tom Hardy movie Locke where everything happens in a car and you can only see the Tom Hardy character.
