Strippers At Funerals? Only In China...And They Going To Ban It


Came across this interesting news article from the BBC. They reported that they are going to ban a local rural tradition of hiring strippers at funerals.

Why strippers at funerals? Well the local people in Donghai believes the more people that attends one's funeral, the more honoured that one will be in the sending off to the after-life.

But where's the honour in that? Just because a bunch of sex-craved drunk passer-bys attends your funeral, does that make you more honourable? Man, I swear, although I love my heritage, there's are also something which makes you think again. I certainly don't want a stripper at my funeral to attract people who I don't know in my sending off!

But my mates in UK may disagree and think otherwise. Maybe this will catch on in other places and become fashionable?

Amelie finally back in Taiwan!  Have missed her for three months, but have been busy at work, not had chance to catch up with her.  However, Amelie did some catching up herself...with her favourite Mister Donuts! You must cut down on those foods!

Going Japanese

After a bit of a battle in the bathroom with Amelie, she chose to go Japanese tonight. Chien took some pictures, and I thought I'd like to share them. Enjoy!

Goodbye P-100

I'm just going to upload the last ever set of photos from our loyal Sony P-100. I will update this post tomorrow. Yup, the Sony P-100 is a gonna. It ain't gonna rise from the ashes, this time... For now here are some photos taken today around Taipei using the Sony P-100 before the evening's accident, which involved Chien-yu, her foot and the hard marble floor we have in our room. We now got a good excuse to get a new, better digital camera. Its going to have to be a Sony one though, because I invested in a 1GB memory stick. Need to make use of that as much as I can! Sigh, money, money and more money.
