In het kader van kernfusie op aarde: MAAK JE EIGEN WATERSTOFBOM How to build an H-Bomb From: ascott@tartarus.uwa.edu.au (Andrew Scott) Newsgroups: rec.humor Subject: How To Build An H-Bomb (humorous!)

I had an interesting conversation with my Dad this morning. We were talking about where Koreans put their money. Invariably, they have a lot of real estate and cash. (Cash would include short term investments under one year as well as savings accounts.) The reason? Real estate makes money here. A lot... | 30-49 |
If anything, Korea is a country of extremes. Everything here seems fad-based. I think it may come from Korea's history. It has been invaded a reported 700 times over the years, and each time they got independence I imagine they had to move quickly to get to the next level before the next war or occupati... | 30-49 |
Take a read of this news article from urlLink JoongAng Ilbo about North Korea's opinion on the scaling down of troops in Seoul and Korea (specifically, 3,600 troops are heading to Iraq and by the end of 2005 the current total of 37,000 should drop to about 24,500). North blasts U.S. troop cuts North Ko... | 30-49 |
Ah, the Korean language...it looks so difficult at first, then as you figure out how to read Hanguel (Korea's surprisingly easy-to-learn alphabet of 24 characters) it seems so easy. Then the vocabulary starts. Oh no. Then the backwards (to us) sentence structure. Yikes! Luckily there are many options for... | 30-49 |
If you click on my profile you'll make a not-so-startling discovery...I was born in Year of the Pig, as they say in the Korean/Chinese calendar. But blogger.com figured it would be more appropriate to call it Year of the Boar/bore...thanks guys. Anyways, you may be wondering how a fat, lazy, smelly Canad... | 30-49 |
Last night was pretty fun...mostly because of the company I kept. I recently met a couple of finance-types here in Yeouido (which isn't too hard to do, as it's referred to as Korea's Wall Street) who spoke pretty good English (which is a rarity here not only in Yeouido but everywhere in Korea). They had ... | 30-49 |
urlLink Here it is, the superfantastic phonebox! Today is a great day. Our lovely officegirl Jung Mi (please no letters, that's what secretaries are called here) went to LG Twins building and got me a new phone. I really needed one on account of (i) my old one was all in Korean...which was fine beca... | 30-49 |
One thing I love about Seoul (and I mean this about Korea in general...I just happen to be a little Seoul-centric) is the street sellers. I don't really trust the food they sell on the side of the road (except ice cream) but virtually everything else is fair game for me. For example, to get ready for my ... | 30-49 |
Well, I stand corrected, again. Yesterday I blogged that Coquitlam was an oasis of Whiteness in the sea of Asians that is Vancouver, but oh how I was wrong. We went to the, aptly named, Coquitlam Mall today and put Spencer in the play area with a few other kids. I heard a lady speaking Korean to her boy... | 30-49 |
So I've been in Vancouver a few days now...in Coquitlam, actually. It's really an interesting place; I used to think it was full of Chinese people (not that there's anything wrong with that, but Vancouver's #1 mother tongue is Mandarin/Cantonese, so you'd assume there'd be tons here). Our area is up on a... | 30-49 |
Whenever I see a pregnant Korean lady I really feel for her, because I know that within a few months she will have a 3-5 year sentence to complete and utter child-rearing duties. As with most things Korean, mothers go all out...right from before conception to...well, it never stops. Today I got a taste... | 30-49 |
My wife posed a strange question to me tonight. Apparently this is the new fad in Korea...men are asked 'if your wife and your mother are drowning (neither can swim) and you have time to save just one of them who would you choose?'. Many men say, 'my mother, because I can always remarry...but I can never... | 30-49 |
As readers will know, my favorite airline is Singapore Air (SAI). They have those personal monitors for everyone with on-demand movies, TV shows and games..and some lovely-looking stewardesses, of course. Another thing going for them is their empathy with their passengers. I've twice been bumped up to b... | 30-49 |
When I was in Seoul these last few months I thought my wife had it kinda easy here with 'just' our 2 kids to take care of. Now I know that this parenting thing is pretty tough. The worst thing is they 'tag team' us. For example, one stays up til 3:30AM, the other wakes up at 7AM. One has a nap, and the... | 30-49 |
Korea, especially Seoul, is pretty cool; and Canada, especially Vancouver is pretty cool too. Here are a few things I will (and will not) miss: Things to miss about Korea: being a celebrity (well, a little one, at least...just for being me); 100 kinds of ice cream at the local convenience store (and all ... | 30-49 |
This may be a long blog...got a lot of thoughts going through my head this last couple of days, not least because of my reading urlLink A Mathematician Plays the Stock Market --a very cool book and one that I wish I read before embarking on the urlLink CFA designation exams (wrote 2 of the 3 required ex... | 30-49 |
Big cities are famous for being expensive places to live, some more than others, of course. Here is the latest (2004, urlLink source ) list of priciest cities to live in (sorry not sure how to format a table): 1 Tokyo, Japan 2 London, UK ... | 30-49 |
It feels like I didn't even leave this place, which is a little scary. Things will be a little weird for a bit (as I take about a week to get over jetlag, unlike some people I know who take about 2 days) so postings may be a little sporatic for a bit. As well, work is getting busier...which is fine my me... | 30-49 |
A night out in Korea can seem pretty overwhelming, especially in HongDae, Kangnam Sinchon, urlLink Sincheon , Itaewon, Daehak-ro or any of the other major hotspots in town. Hongdae, Sinchon and Daehak-ro make a name for themselves by being close to the major universities; Kangnam is a place for lavishing... | 30-49 |
Some of you may remember my first article on oh-gyup-sal (five layers of fat pork). Oh-gyup-sal is a one-up on sam-gyup-sal (three layers of fat porl), so it only makes sense that this land of hyperbole would come up with chun-gyup-sal (1,000 layers of fat pork)--and it did. As amazing as it may seem, som... | 30-49 |
Sometimes this place really makes me think. So many things are so different here (language, expressions, people, culture, shopping, driving habits) but, yet, some things are just like home. Take my building, for instance, there are a few guards (we call them 아저씨, ajeosshi, or 'mister') in the lobby...wel... | 30-49 |
A readers will know, shopping in Seoul is a little different from back home (assuming back home is a Western country like Canada, the US, UK...). For one thing ( urlLink more things here ), you can haggle at almost every 'store' (and some for sure at every place that is not a store, but like the picture b... | 30-49 |
Recently I downloaded Go-Stop (a traditional Korean card game, played almost exclusively by men, Yahoo!'s version is urlLink here ) to my phone. (There is one called Sexy-Go-Stop too, for those who are into Anime.) Well, I've been playing it (the clean version) so much that my battery dies sometimes whe... | 30-49 |
Over the last few weeks I've been to a couple of Western movies ( urlLink Troy and urlLink Spiderman 2 ) and a few Korean ones as well: urlLink 여친소 (Yeochinso/Windstruck) ; urlLink 올드보이 (Old Boy) ; urlLink 공공의적 (Gong-gong-ui Jock/Public Enemy ; urlLink 와일드카드 (Wild Card) ; and urlLink 범죄의 재구 | 30-49 |
In any developing country (and I believe Korea is 'developing' and really only started on the road to a real economy with the onset of real elections in 1994) there can be trials and tribulations for those who lead (politicians, heads of business) and follow (workers, students). Don't get me wrong, Korea ... | 30-49 |
This urlLink Korea Times Business Section editorial speaks of Jwa Seung-hee's (president of an economic research institute for the Federation of Korean Industries) 10 mysteries of the Korean economy. #1 Western-style economic reform has eroded the dynamism of the Korean economy. #2 Seoul has become big... | 30-49 |
urlLink Paris Lovers...what a happy couple. Looking at Korea one can see something of a Leave it to Beaver mindset when it comes to relationships--especially in the minds of 20-something girls here. One could compare it (as I will) to a monk living life in a temple and then having everything change... | 30-49 |
Just so you know, this blog isn't about being political. If anything, it's about as apolitical as you can get for blogging. However, there is something that I wanted to comment on: you can use it to form your views or not. Oh, and I talk about some of the important points in here, so if you're going to se... | 30-49 |
Korea is, as you may have guessed, a hyper-competitive place. Once a store, restaurant or whatever they always make a big deal of it. One of the best ways they have to get attention is dancing girls. Ya, you heard right. Girls in cheerleader-like outfits dancing up a storm to hiphop in front of a balloon a... | 30-49 |
I was going to hold off on writing this until I had a ton of pics of some of the public urlLink washrooms they have here, but I had a pretty brutal experience in one today so I figured that was a sign or something. Here's a restroom to avoid: near Line 4 at Seoul Station Subway...unreal. As soon as I wal... | 30-49 |
Ah, urlLink the monsoon season has ended and thus begins the urlLink dog days of summer on the peninsula. I promised myself that I'd never be in Korea (and especially in Seoul) for this, but it looks like I'll be here for about half of August. Oh...my....God! It will be so hot. Many Koreans take this... | 30-49 |
urlLink Samsung has a new phone ...with a THREE megapixel camera. LG and Panitec/Curitel have similar ones out as well. The only problem is the things are about 700,000 won (600USD). So, I'll wait a bit until I get a new phone/dica (digital camera, as they abbreviate it here). For now, I'm having fun ... | 30-49 |
It's been a while. Been busy. Was entertaining a British friend of mine (originally from Manchester, now in K.L.-Kuala Lumpur) who has basically been ruined by Asia. You see, once a Western guy comes here he can hardly go back to life in the West...you'll know if you're here. Two other Aussie brothers ... | 30-49 |
Ok, you're probably looking at that title and wondering what the heck the connection is. It's tenuous, but here goes. First, these are four countries I likely will not drive in (although I did drive in the Philippines, or Phil, but that was in my younger days) the first three because of the amount of nutti... | 30-49 |
I'd like to thank my bud Peter in Vancouver for the picture below. It shows me that it's urlLink not just Koreans that are into voyeurism (although the Swiss version has one-way glass so people can't see in, and the Korean versions have none such discretion, it seems). urlLink Is it me? Or does s... | 30-49 |
Last night I saw urlLink Silmido . Man, it reminded me of The Dirty Dozen. The (true) story is: the North sent a platoon (31 men) of commandos to Seoul in January 1968 to kill then-president/dictator Park Chung Hee (he was later assassinated by a cabinet member in 1979). Their plan was thwarted, but the S... | 30-49 |
Yahoo! Finally, after being in Seoul for almost 2 years we closed our first deal. I had almost given up on this place/market, but looks like we've go our foot in the door. Never give up is the motto here. Reminds me of a client of mine I had in Vancouver. I knew he was quite wealthy and invested in my area... | 30-49 |
urlLink As promised yesterday , last night I saw a Korean horror movie: urlLink 분신사바/Bunshinsaba . First, though, there was time to kill before the movie so a little sam-gyup-sal was in order. We went to Don Don Restaurant in Jong-no (downtown) where there was an interesting concept. It's on the fourth ... | 30-49 |
Seoul is a pretty good place for outdoor activities, as long as you live in the right part of town (which I do, thank you!). There are a few parks around but 2 of the largest are Olympic Park (a massive place that I lived near for 6 months when I stayed with my in-laws when I first came here...they were ri... | 30-49 |
신촌 (Sinchon, an area of Seoul near 홍대/HongDae, or the university district) is a pretty cool place. From Yeouido the subway is pretty inconvenient, but there's is a bus that goes there and cabs are a cheap and fast option as well. A few times, though, especially in this warm we... | 30-49 |
There are a few ways to beat the heat here in Seoul. One is to simply stay at work, but with the government-imposed urlLink 5-day work-week coming into effect (and since I can't really figure out why I'd work 7 days a week) that isn't a very viable option. You could go to the beach, but it tends to get a... | 30-49 |
Just in time for Mel Gibson's urlLink The Paparazzi movie, here is a candid shot of Tommy from urlLink 하나둘셋/hana-dool-set (1-2-3) fame! urlLink It's Tommy! Actually, he's on the snippet-show urlLink 'Wake-up' where he and a Korean girl (and a lovable muppet-like fr... | 30-49 |
Korea's pretty funny sometimes. Take a look at urlLink this article about changing the age of majority from 20 (already a year younger than the U.S.) to 19 (the same as British Columbia, Canada, but higher than the 18 that is prevalen federally and in some Canadian provinces). Here parents are commenti... | 30-49 |
Ya, I'm off to Canada/Vancouver again soon...ah, to be back in the land of fresh air, real mountains and diapers. Luckily, I think my oldest boy is out potty-trained now. Not sure, though, haven't been home for about 2 months...and a lot can happen in that time. Now that we've done a deal here my boss/CEO... | 30-49 |
Ah, finally...someone else I know is coming here from Canada for a visit. First was my cousin, Lars in May of 2003. He came at the perfect time. Weather was getting warm, but not unbearably hot and urlLink Children's Day and Buddha's Birthday were celebrated (day off) during his time here too. That was c... | 30-49 |
I think if I'm going to claim 여의도/Yeouido as my new hometown I should know something about it...and by extension you should too. I've got a little more to add to my urlLink background on it thus far . As you may know, ~do can mean two things in Korean. One is: province, such as 경기도/Kyunggi-do. The other ... | 30-49 |
Being gay in Korea is like being gay in the U.S. military...in 1950. Let's just say that it's not near as lovingly embraced as in the West/US. Gays marrying in Korea? C'mon! There are no Korean gays! Of course, if one is gay one can hardly be Korean. I'm not trying to piss of PCers out there, this is just ... | 30-49 |
It's hard to think that we have less than a week together. Then, it's over. Most of my friends will fly away together leaving me without wings... aimlessly hobbling around trying to find replacement wings and friends. I almost don't want to go to school. I don't want to say good bye. We can say we'll ... | 13-17 |
What you are about to read is a “Quick Write”. A “Quick Write” is an activity we did in my eighth grade English class. Our teacher gives us a topic to write about.

Election time has rolled around again. And everyone is spitting their venom at each other in hopes of impressing the public with their 'tact'. Um..what.

Nuts. As usual, Theo and I played with food. Today's creation consisted of USA waffle, ice cream, hershey's choc syrup, QOO Lemon, ice kachang, maple syrup, chilli sauce, butter, tomato ketchup.

in a moment of clarity i looked up the tablature for 'tightrope', by the stone roses. a truly beautiful wonderful song, and one that i have every intention of playing at some point when the mysterious 'band' gets together. acoustic singalongs were never so cool: are we etched in stone, or just scratched in the... | 18-29 |
hiya, i have some observations i'd like to share; like how sometimes it seems easier to go out of your way for people you don't know, and how once you start ignoring the 'phone it becomes easier and easier not to ever pick it up. in recent stealth missions i acquired a popcorn maker; a neat little device that ... | 18-29 |

prozac does not work. go figure. there have been incidents recently that have cheered me (you know who you are) and infuriated me (you know damn well who you are), but i can't help but wonder if that would have happened anyway. the worst is not really knowing; its been a few months now and i thought i had im... | 18-29 |

well now. please excuse my absence, and also the fact that in the near future i may not be around so much. there was this thing, you see, and there was an issue, and so we all moved and we're not there any more. and i'm so tired of running around being responsible that i shan't say much more. urlLink greg , les... | 18-29 |
the humidity of recent days has lead to increased insomnia, but has also lead to the first five minutes of returning home into a game of how fast the vast majority of my clothes can be removed. right now i am wearing only the shorts that earned me the name of 'chicken legs' earlier this year. maybe it is somethi... | 18-29 |
a slow day; getting things done like cutting your toenails tend not to count as truly productive, they are to the working day as shampoo is to the shopping list: something that occasionally has to be done, but more of an imposition than anything else. thesis word count: 650 like i say, a slow day. but, i have ... | 18-29 |
it seems that i am a difficult person to get hold of; or so i have been recently told by more than a couple of people. the main downside to (gasp) not having a mobile telephone was brought back to me today when it transpires that my best friend tried to call last night, and i wasn't around. unfortunate rather th... | 18-29 |
what an entertaining morning! after the insights of therapy and the delight of having already had a shower (joy!), i headed off to the shortest film festival in the world (...ever!). this is run by the people at urlLink nokia who want you to buy their 'phones, and are selling them on the basis of their movie-m... | 18-29 |
and no, i'm not talking about the incessant rain. i actually like the rain; the seven-month manchester winter of grey and mizzle is part of the appeal. i guess i just like wearing coats, and to quote the urlLink otters : the rain soothes the tempest that is my soul. at my therapist's this morning we identify p... | 18-29 |

Ugh finally the only show worth watching on TV has come along. The WB's Superstar USA, ooooh man I LOVE that show.

We always hear statistics stating we are an aging nation, but how does that really affect us?
