C. Buddha's Hasty Musings

Month: February 2007

  • The First Element of Pimp (Thai Dub)

    First step: Take your ride to get hand washed and waxed (approx. 100 baht / $3). Thai car washes have concrete ramps for bidet-style cleaning. Your car will thank you. The key here is the wax, you’ll see why later. A cheeky rooster at the car wash is most auspicious, Keanu. The next step of…

  • MS Tech Support

    Heh. I need every chuckle I can get. (from dad)

  • Bye-bye to Bozo

    It may just be my current rage issues, but I thought this was the funniest thing: Two clowns shot dead “Acrobats, harlequins, animal trainers and other circus performers staged protests in different parts of the country following the killings, chanting ‘Justice for the assassins of laughter.’” Mind you, the assasin of laughter’s name is “My…

  • “Is something wrong, she said”

    “Well of course there is ‘You’re still alive,’ she said Oh, but I deserve to be? Is that the question? And if so…if so…who answers…who answers.” I’m still alive… I just have no time, at least for a short while longer. The most amazing set of photos have been taken, I just need some time…

  • What’s going on

    I’ve been busy this week helping our program organize International Day, which consisted of student efforts at creating performances, food, and events associated with various foreign countries. This being Asia, the state of Hawaii and “Cowboy” were somehow considered countries of their own. Also, I witnessed the requisite “oogabooga” dance performance done by male students…

  • Tenrikyo Rap

    This is the ultimate realization of one of Cosmic Buddha’s long-standing jokes: 785 Movie I would be really surprised if they got permission to do this… There was a band that played a punk version of some Tenrikyo songs and got kicked out of Tenri high school about 15 years ago. I think T, who…

  • flogging the bishop

    I like living in the third world, for the most part. Thailand is a great country and I like the fact that there’s a lot further to go up than down. Today, however, I experienced a downside to the lack of development when I went to the hospital for a sperm count. Actually, we didn’t…
