    Hey Ed, nice post! I wish I could have an opportunity to have lunch with John like you did, I dont know him much, or maybe at all, but what I have gathered in our conversations, he is simply a cool guy!

    Nice Blog!

    John was having a rock fight, but later found out that it was a group of baby pandas he was throwing rocks at! EVIL~!!!

    Gdog, that looks like Kam Do to me. I’m surprised those goofs are still driving in this weather. Don’t you know that Vancouver (and by association, Richmond) shuts down at the slightest sight of the white stuff?

    Reminds me my past travels in Tibet. When we went hunting for baby seals, they swallowed all the bullets and spitted them back at us at such a rate, so we played run and hide game. And pandas did not even have teeth. But we all came in one piece and mommy said that was good.

    The rock fight was a long time ago. And I can assure you I never killed any pandas! But I’m sure some humans got hurt.

    [...] I apologize in advance if I cannot blog consistently since I will be busy with school projects and final exam preparation. My goal for this blog is to stick with posting about one post a day. That translates to roughly a minimum of 30 posts per month. So far, including this post, I will have written 28 posts in total. Given that there are only 30 days in November and I started blogging on November 5, 2006, I think I have done pretty good. I was reading Ed Lau’s interview of John Chow and John had this to say for bloggers, “make a commitment to do a certain number of posts each day/week and stick to it.” This is perhaps the single most useful advice any successful blogger can give to another blogger. To be honest, I completely agree with John. I feel that if I am to run a successful blog (in terms of readers), I should continually and consistently keep updating. Hence, it is my goal to average at least one post per day. [...]

    [...] I have decided to handle the blog’s income a little differently from now on. Instead of giving all the money to charities, it will be divided between a trust fund for Sally and charities. Some would say that is a bit selfish of me but hey, as Ed has stated, I am the root of all evil. Besides, the blog donations are on top of what I already give to church and charities. [...]
