In a total gag, I participated in a charity fund raising spelling bee, a la the Putnam County Spelling Bee on Broadway. There were about 40 people in on this. I survived the word “treatise” but got knocked out on the word “chauffeur” – needed to buy a vowel. I would have done much better if it were a vocabulary bee, and not a spelling bee – I think I knew the meanings of all of the words. Oh well – it went to a good cause.

Gong Xie Fat Tsai!
Definitely wishing everyone a happy Chinese New Year. A big deal here (Taiwan gets 9 days, including weekends). I’m typing this from the Taoyuan International Cathay Pacific lounge.
It’s mad on the highways due to the exodus of people back to their home towns from Taipei. Boarding soon and I’ll be arriving in Ipoh just after midnight. Tired, looking forward to it and being with family for recharging.
Just ended one of the most grueling stretch of 6 weeks in my professional career :s. I need the R&R. Instead of the 20 degree weather, KL is more like the hot hot hot :o.
You all be well. Say hi to AS for me. I didn’t get a chance to meet up with him since Jan.
What’s the PowerPoint?
Got this on a mailing list that I am on. Sort of Zen…
