Sunday, Jul. 18, 2004 - 1:25 p.m. Merchandise..... Taiwan Costs..... Photos..... Q&A Thanks to everyone who emailed me with questions about our MERCHANDISE....there is still plently available, SO, I REPEAT! If you enjoy this site, PLEASE BUY MY MERCHANDISE. I now have 40 days left in Taiwan and dont really wanna throw this stuff away. See the "Merchandise" link above. All T-shirts are on sale for a rock bottom $10 US. With international shipping and initial cost this is a LOSS for me. But I dont care, I just want them to find a good home! Sigh. This is almost hilarious. But after I posted an objection to the stupid hanger posts (see last journal entry here), there were posts attacking MY CHARACTER. um, no problem. See why I am not fond of this place. Even the foreigners here who SHOULD know betta, are stupid as fuck. Not all, mind you, but enough to make me cringe. I sold my computer and digital camera today. Makes me feel much better! whew! Now I really CAN afford to go through with my plans for next weekend. I found a little something from my notes that may make you laugh. When I first got here I thought it was fun that there were both western (sit) and eastern (squat) toilets.But even more important than that was guessing if there would be toilet paper in the bathrooms or not. I started to carry around the toilet paper packets like the locals do just in case, but I found myself guessing correctly if there was toilet paper available. I scribbled the following bit when I was on vacation in Kenting late last year. How to know if a restaurant provides toilet paper in their bathroom. By Debra S. (which does NOT stand for squat) Fuccio If any one of these situations apply, you are in wiping heaven. ahhhhhh 1. There are more foreigners in the rest. than locals 2. There are backs on the chairs 3. Your drink is served before or with your meal 4. There are napkins on the table 5. You are familiar with the food in question OR if there is an English menu 6. There are English signs ANYWHERE in the rest. 7. The prices are twice to three times that of the local joint next door. 8. The staff smiles (instead of looking scared and searching with their eyes for a place to hide until someone else deals with you) when you walk in the door. Go ahead, test it out! I think you will find this a good guideline! |
