Far East Cynic

Someone has blundered……

That’s the title of a book I bought in HK. Its a history of calamaties of the British Army in the Victorian Age.

It also could be the title of a short story about my current existence here in Korea.  The project needs to be done, but the guy who set this whole thing up can only be described as the Joe Sestak of the United States Marine Corps………………

It could be a lot better. However we would have to remove the banner above the building that says “Arbeit macht Frei”.

Phrased another way: Korea blows!

Actually Korea itself is ok……if I had time to see it. The leaves have turned here though and the mountainsides are beautiful. Its just too bad I only see them in the morning and when I go to lunch. Evenings its always late…and dark.

So……I’m not dead. It just seems that way. I did put my pix in the computer so tomorrow I will tell you the story of the engaged couple I met in Hong Kong.  The entertainment value was quite high.

However like the past few days, I’ve spent so much time hunched over a computer, I just don’t have the energy to type anymore.

So I am here………..

And wishing I was back there.

BTW, the MTR ride count was 15. So Deborah wins the contest and a 75 dollar donation to Valour IT will be on its way to them in her name. Guess I just did not get out and about as much as I should have…………………
