Incommunicado

First off I would like to apologize for all of the unanswered e-mails that are sitting in my inbox. But the reason is that I'm fighting a bacterial infection at the moment. Not only a bacterial infection, but the same type that I had last year that kept me hospitalized for 2 weeks. But this one I've been battling for the past 5 days, and I haven’t had the energy to do all the things that I would like to do, or need to do. I think that I picked it up when I went to Kubah, and it rained heavily soaking everything we wore and owned, including my camera.

My camera is broken for the time being, it seems that the water had shorted something inside of it. More specifically the LCD doesn’t get any signal, but the backlighting works. So all I get is a solid white screen, but the camera takes pictures, I just can’t tell what I'm taking them of. Perhaps if any of you (dad specifically) has any idea how I could repair it, or how much it would cost (if not more than the camera) I would gladly appreciate it.

With that being said I finally uploaded some pictures from last week. So I everyone enjoys them until I have the opportunity to do some other fun stuff.

Observations from far away!

REPOST: i was made aware(due to my friend) that my blog wasnt allowing people to post, and i noticed alot of dead traffic to the comments page, so im resubmitting this, and maybe i can answer some peoples questions

There are bound to be quite a few long, pointless, and perhaps funny entries in my blog soon to come. Being that at the moment I don’t have a single thing which is of any interest to write about. But perhaps in the flurry of words that streams out of my head and into the electronic vastness of space, someone might find something of use. But the more likely situation is that im going to impale myself with my own sword, and require many stitches, as well as a mop.

That being said, should I meet my untimely demise, I have only a few wishes before I go. The first being that I wish to have my middle finger preserved as well as it can be, and to have it mounted on a plaque then gift wrapped. Then I would like for it to be presented to the world leaders at as large of a UN council meeting as can be found, as a gift, one final testament of my good will towards thier kind.

Anyhow, I am taking this great opportunity that free time has given me to write about my particular observations while I’ve been abroad, if anyone has any requests, they can send them by e-mail or by comment on this blog and I should very quickly write a blog entry about what my observations have been so far. It could in fact be about anything; the weather, sex, politics, or the strange Asian shortage of fingernail clippers (if anyone finds any in Kuching, please provide a location where I could buy a pair for myself.) I encourage everyone, and anyone to give me a subject to write about, and my blog is an equal opportunity informer. So regardless of how well I know you, your questions will be all treated equally.

Now we return you to your regularly scheduled commercials.
