great picture of that elk. Maybe one of these days I should take a trip to Taiwan to visit you. How long has it been since we met? 7 years maybe?

Wow – I didn’t realize the Lomo community was this strong. Are there also digital Lomo shooters out there?

What a great store, Carrie. I wish there was one in Hong Kong. The “Golden Rules” are priceless and should be followed by everyone!

Comment on Bus Scams in Chau Doc, Vietnam by Rodney

Vietscam. In Asia if you fix a price it’s best to write it down, always have a notebook.Then if they up the price you just give them original agreed price and walk. They going to call the cops? The police are lazy, they only ever do some thing for money, so if they did come, which would be a miracle akin to real pennies falling from heaven, they’d charge the cylco too.
In Phnom Penh you get a bus that takes you to HCM, costs about $15, arrange at your Guest House or another nearby. You get off at the border, go through Customs and Immigration and get back on the bus and go into HCM.
You’ll get the same scam at the Cambodian borders too, going in.

Eric,

Part of the fun of going to a new country is trying things or doing things that you’ve never done before. I tried stinky tofu for the first time in China. A friend of mine bought it for me as a snack and she was so excited for me to try it, I just couldn’t say no. I plugged my nose and ate it and I was pleasantly surprised at both the taste and texture. I’m a fan for sure. If you’re going to try it, I recommend trying the grilled version over the deep-fried version. The deep-fried version comes with a topping that tastes a bit like relish. I don’t really like the taste as much. The grilled version is served with a spicy sauce that is swiped on after they take it off the grill. It makes all the difference.

I agree. I spent some time going through her upcoming videos, and she’s got some truly great moments.

Nope. Their support time dropped the ball too many times and I’m not interested in wasting any more time with them. Good luck, though.

Have you thought about giving IntenseDebate another shot? It seems all the problems most people have been having have been dealt with. I went with ID and it seems to be working great so far….but we’ll have to see with time.
