Tuktukousine? Limotuktuk?

I'm better. I'm not good, but I'm better. Still have lingering chest congestion and an occasional cough, but I think I'm not far from a full recovery *crosses fingers*.

I've also come up with a few things that might be blogworthy. Well, worthy of this blog, anyway.

I think at some point in the past I mentioned how Koreans are like Yoda: the grammar structure of the language tends to put things in order not unlike Yoda's speech patterns.
Well, I realized recently that if Koreans are Yoda, then Chinese are Chewbacca: you can really only understand them if you are A) a protocol/interpreter droid, or B) Han Solo (i.e., you have a really good friend who is one).


Anyway, there's a building near where we live that has some broken windows (pic only shows one, but there are more). They've been like that for as long as we've been here, but no one seems to care. I can't imagine that the building management wouldn't want to have them repaired. Fix your damn windows!

I guess it's for when you need to have someone pedal you around in style.

I want to see the person who pedals that thing...legs must be huge.

I'm glad you're feeling at least somewhat better. Boo for ass-kicking illnesses that last a long time. :-(

I'm with Puck. I can't even imagine dragging half a car behind me on a bicycle. Crazy!

That bike thing is the back end of a mini clubman, so I know it would be light, but that is... impressive?

Feel better.
