Oh, about the image splash. That's Vincent price in Dr. Goldfoot and the bikini machine. Yeah, you see, he's turned all these girl robots into bombs. Just your typical 1960's era Hollywood fare.
It’s all about having FUN.
By request, I’m posting some fun videos of what is going on in the rest of the world. You can turn off Drudge, CNN, MSNBC and the rest of all that nonsense. Here’s what the rest of the world are up to.
So grab a seat.
Pour yourself a big bowl of Doritos and some salsa. (Don’t forget the tomatoes, and onions, and delicious cheddar cheese.) Make sure that you are well equipped with frosty mugs of delicious beer (oh, and BTW, never scrimp on the beer. If, it’s not worthy of the money, it’s not worthy of drinking), and settle down.
Oh, and don’t forget your dog or cat, or both if you are anything like me. Make sure that there is enough room for them to squeeze in besides you. Relax. Light up.
I’ve selected some of the more unusual micro-videos from my collection. Some are really entertaining, while others are well… just really strange.
Watch them or not.
Just recognize that our world is a great and wonderful place. It is filled with wonderful, great people, and it is our differences from each other that should be appreciated and treasured, not our bland sameness. Let the sheep be like everyone else. Be the odd-man-out that follows a different beat.
Be who you are.
Please kindly note that this post has multiple embedded videos. It is important to view them. If they fail to load, all you need to do is to reload your browser.
First up, let’s see a micro-video that kind of looks a little bit like me. Well, in style, anyways. And, no let’s not get all too deep about this subject matter.
We are all just having fun playing around.
- Why Do We Like Watching Scary Films?
- Why do people like drama?
- What kind of movies do you like best?
- Do people like comedy?
- Why do people go to the movies?
He’s just like me!
Let’s start with this cool little video, that I jokenly refer to as a reflection of my life. LOL. It’s close… sort of. It’s a collection of clips from one of the top Chinese movies of this season.
The theme that runs through Chinese movies is pretty much [1] massive success after [2] tremendous study and preparation. (Yah. I’ve got tons, just tons, of micro-videos on these theme.)
That differs from many of the themes that you can find in Hollywood. You know the type. You are gifted with luck beyond your control. A meteor falls from the sky and you get magical powers. Or you are bit by a radioactive spider and become enhanced, or you are granted special abilities at birth, or some other kind of nonsense. Hollywood loves to produce those kinds of movies; “the world is outside your ability to control. But you can somehow… in some way… be magically transformed. Somehow…”
I guess is a difference between a traditional meritocracy, and a progressive utopia.
Guess which is which.
- China = Traditional, Single-political party, Conservative.
- USA = Progressive, forward thinking, Social utopia.
Anyways, I love his fashion sense, his cigars, and diving into the pool with all those cute bikini clad chicks. I can easily see myself wearing those fashionable plaid pants, the green sports jacket, and his polyester attire.
Can’t you?
Not to mention being surrounded by bikini clad ladies. Life is too short not to be surrounded by cute attractive women. Don’t you think? (At least, that’s my take on this matter.)
Oh, and don’t forget the pizza, beer, wine and lots and lots of music…
And, here’s another video that is a reflection of the kinds of movies coming out of China these days…
Having the beat…
Well, you asked. You see, everyone needs to dance to their own beat. And maybe you don’t know how to dance, heck you can still move your neck muscles around, eh?
Maybe a bit of explanation is in order. You will note that they are wearing traditional Han clothing. This is a regular thing in China. You honor tradition and you keep the memories alive of the past. You treasure statues, monuments, and traditions.
Again, that is what traditional conservative nations do. They honor their past.
Progressive enlightened nations tear down the past. They ignore or rewrite the past to fit a more “enlightened” understanding. Since China is very traditional, and extremely conservative, you can see this being reflected in their movies made within China.
This is the top movie in China this season…
Yeah. I don’t get it either.
Now who wouldn’t want to have a crew of nappy well-dressed mobsters wearing fedoras (and top hats) and carrying axes. Especially when they perform line dance routines to fight the opposition? I can relate. Can’t you?
Maybe this is how you deal with all that mob violence in cities like Chicago, Detroit, San Francisco or Baltimore. You know the places… those liberal progressive utopias where everyone is equal, just and happy!
Rap God
How about being a Rap God? They’ve got them in China, don’t ya know. It’s sort of like this. Hey! Can you rap in English and Chinese simultaneously?
I feel like I am getting a little too sidetracked on movies.
Let’s check out some other unknowns. Let’s check out the cool and beautiful islands.
Chinese Islands
Everyone knows about the thousands of islands in Thailand and Vietnam. What many people don’t know is that China has many, many thousands of islands as well. All of which are sitting right there waiting for you to explore and enjoy.
And people… that’s what you do.
Let’s continue forward, shall we… Ugh.
I have many more videos, but I just cannot put them into a single post. It will bog down your computer terribly. So to watch the rest of the videos in this post, please continue. The arrow will flush this page’s cache (sort of) and allow you to check out some more cool micro-videos.
I’ve got stuff on all kinds of things. From the HK riots, to eating, drinking, and pretty girls, to sudsy cluster parties. Ho Ya Baby!

Links about China
Here are some links about my observations on China. I think that you, the reader, might find them to be of interest. Please kindly enjoy.
China and America Comparisons
As an American, I cannot help but compare what my life was in the United States with what it is like living in China. Here we discuss that.
The Chinese Business KTV Experience
This is the real deal. Forget about all that nonsense that you find in the British tabloids and an occasional write up in the American liberal press. This is the reality. Read or not.
Learning About China
Who doesn’t like to look at pretty girls? Ugly girls? Here we discuss what China is like by looking at videos of pretty girls doing things in China.
Contemporaneous Chinese Music
This is a series of posts that discuss contemporaneous popular music in China. It is a wide ranging and broad spectrum of travel, and at that, all that I am able to provide is the flimsiest of overviews. However, this series of posts should serve as a great starting place for investigation and enjoyment.
Parks in China
The parks in China are very unique. They are enormous and tend to be very mountainous. Here we take a look at this most interesting of subjects.
Really Strange China
Here are some posts that discuss a number of things about China that might seem odd, or strange to Westerners. Some of the things are everyday events, while others are just representative of the differences in culture.
What is China like?
The purpose of this post is to illustrate that the rest of the world, outside of America, has moved on with their lives. That while they might not be as great as America is, they are doing just fine thank you.
And while America has been squandering it’s money, decimating it’s resources, and just being cavalier with it’s military, the rest of the world has done the opposite. They have husbanded their day to day fortunes, and you can see this in their day-to-day lives.
Summer in Asia
Let’s take a moment to explore Asia. That includes China, but also includes such places as Vietnam, Thailand, Japan and others…
