Bruce Lee was a famous martial artist turned movie star of the 70's. He died of a brain edema (swollen brain) just before "Enter The Dragon" was released and what do you know, "Enter The Dragon" was a huge international hit. His son Brandon died of a "firearms accident" on the set of "The Crow" , which what do you know, also turned out to be a hit. By chance, his dad Bruce "made" a posthumous movie called "Game Of Death" where his character also died of a "firearms accident". Tonight's movie is "Fist Of Fury" aka "The Chinese Connection" which is set I guess in 1937 Shanghai, when Japan invaded China. It took me a while to find an English dub: I did however find dubs in Tamil and Mexican. Let's play a game: can you tell which of these actors who died on set were accidents or were set up? They can't all be accidents and they can't all be set ups.
Do you like playing cell phone games? My favorite right now is "Doofus Drop".

Squirrel
Yes Erin, I remember that show. Where your hat wouldn't stay on your head, and you couldn't decide whether or not to go out on the catwalk. I'm sure the people (like me) remember more about those fashion shows than you, especially since I have it programmed into my TV station. One option is to go out holding the hat with your hand, but I guess it's all too easy to be wise after the event. My favorite part of that show was when you leered at Justin Bieber as if he were a pimple.
I was cleaning out the cat box this morning, when I saw a squirrel on the ground behind me. It was bounding away like squirrels do towards the house with its bushy tail up. I thought that squirrel must be either injured or stupid to be on the ground, moving towards a nest of cats. And sure enough, it attracted the attention of Emma. Emma is my yard cat, she used to be my brother's cat, now she considers herself guardian of my yard. I've never seen her catch a mouse though: she prefers to kill birds. Now she fancies that squirrel. She pounced on it and held it in her mouth, while the squirrel was squealing away for its life. I said, "Hey, you're supposed to kill mice not squirrels!" So I put the cat box down and went to grab Emma by the scruff of her neck. The squirrel was squeaking and crying while in the clutches of Emma's mouth... yes, there were tears running from its eyes. I told Emma to let it go, and she dropped it. It played dead for a few seconds, then flipped over and bounded away into my baby mangoes then disappeared. Now there's nowhere for a squirrel to hide among my baby mangoes, as you can see from the photo. I marked where the squirrel vanished. Even Emma went to look for it at the spot where it vanished, but she couldn't find it.
Hey Natty! How are you feeling, my dear? Are you ready for the next round? I don't want you to worry so much Sweetie, because I'm with you. Just try to have fun, be safe, and please pray.
Pina, you're the only girl I know who looks cute with red eye. Your friends look like they are about to devour anything that crossed their path. Don't you have a red eye neutralizer app in your cell phone?

Happy New Year!
Wasn't 2016 an intense year, Honey? You started the year kind of sleepwalking, as I remember. I stopped trying to talk to you via YouTube, and tried your Instagram instead, which I think made both our lives more exciting. Then Ramadan happened and people started to fight over your beauty (to put it mildly). Was that before or after the President tried to pimp you? Who knows what this next guy will do. Then the Cubs won! You thought they were going to lose, didn't you? Looks like 2017 going to be more exciting. Please pray that this year I get to give you a ring. Please be patient with me.
Natty, my darling Natty! Are you excited for what's going to happen next? God bless your parents for having such a beautiful and wonderful girl that is you. Thrasher Girl! What happens next is all you, the adult you, so please move to Paris, have fun, stay safe and pray.
Pina! Hello to you too! Happy New Year! Did you enjoy the holidays? Did you eat a lot? Are you excited for 2017, Pina? Are you? Are you? Remember: your task is to take Italy!

Just another ordinary day
Yeah, it's just another ordinary, everyday kind of day. Well, I did wake up to a coughing fit in the middle of the night. It was the mosquito incense that made me cough. Hm... it usually doesn't do that. So I snuffed it, then did some extra worship which I usually do when I get insomnia. Mosquitoes are very dangerous by the way, especially around here. We're going to have to be very militant about mosquitoes. I don't want to see even one get close to your precious skin. So after worship, I turned my attention to my cell phone. I have one of those cell phones that run Android 4 or something, and another cell phone that's just a phone. I use the cell phone that's just a phone as my phone because I use my Android phone as a portable computer. It's just a hassle getting a phone call while I'm busy playing a game, plus the other phone is small and fingerprint proof, thus making it more convenient to carry around when I'm doing messy and slimy things like cutting grass or gutting squid. That party at the disco made me use up most of my data, so I can't play Second Life, so I decided to use what's left of my data on Google Play to get more games, even though I can only focus on one game at a time, it's nice to have all those games in case I get stuck for hours at some political speech or something. I so happened to buy a small power bank to get me through such boring ordeals, and I'm testing it out as well. Nothing special on the menu. I made fried noodles, oh my God I forgot to take a photo, but it's only fried noodles. Then it was wet all evening so I couldn't do any yard work, so I stayed in and made hot sauce instead. I'll postpone dinner tonight, because I think they're serving some food after the 'Isha prayer tonight. The imam happens to be quite a good cook. He made lamb curry last night.
Oh yeah, you're beautiful and I love you. Be safe and be happy OK? Please pray.

Restless?
You've been kind of restless lately, huh? I guess the New Year brings excitement and possibilities. Magic! It's a spiritual path for me, and my wife. So I suppose that could manifest itself as magic. To me it's the same old day. One day inshaAllah, I will finally get married. What a day that will be. Then it will the same old day again, but with my wife. I love you.
Hm. You're restless too, Natty. You have a heavy heart, but you're restless. It's pretty clear to everyone I think, that your career is shining bright ahead of you. So go ahead and cheer up. I will look after you and marry you, InshaAllah.
Oh, you're restless too Pina! I always thought you were a cool cat. No ambition, always in the background kind of girl. Well I think you're going to have a great career too InshaAllah.
You must pray. You must stay financially liquid (no debts), stay away from drugs and alcohol, and protect your chastity. Let's not be ignorant, OK? The problem with money is that most of the time, it's dirty. A lot of money is a lot of filth. Organized crime has become more efficient, because they invested in politics. But their weakness remains the same: entertainment. Booze, drugs, gambling, prostitution. Media.

Hello beautiful Erin
How are you feeling, my dearest Sweetheart? I hope the holidays are going absolutely great for you, and that you are having a grand old time. You are my love, you are so beautiful to me and I love you with all my heart.
Usually, I spend about 500 Mbytes a day on the Internet, maybe twice that if I'm busy. I try to be frugal with data because I have a data cap, plus I have other stuff to do besides sit in front of the computer all day. I always go to dance, chat, and play dolly with myself, then I take snapshots. Today, I had to attend a party, the 10th anniversary celebration of the disco I always go to. And it was crowded. The more avatars that are there, the more data I use up, and I have a data cap. Plus, everything slows down. It's like joining a hose that's a foot in diameter to a hose that's half an inch in diameter: although the water pressure is tremendous, it only comes out as a trickle assuming the hose doesn't burst. So I was there, but couldn't do anything. I couldn't dance, I couldn't chat, I couldn't take snapshots, and I used up 3 Gbytes in less than 90 minutes. So, no fashion show today.
Good girl, Natty. You are very resilient, so please know that. The heartache dissipates eventually, I promise you, so hang in there.

Catching up
Hi Erin! How are you feeling today, my love? How's business? Right now, I have a lot to post since I took a one day moment of silence. I was allowed back into the disco after being banned for a couple of months, so I have two venues I have to spend time at. Also right now is peak tourist season around here, so there are a lot of strangers in hanging around, mostly of the younger people since it's school holidays. The trouble with being a cash cow is that nobody will admit their business relies on me because they don't want to be financially indebted to me. On the other hand, if I don't work then the local economy would shut down. The situation has turned into a machine, unable to stop. But I have my orders, so thank Allah and they should thank Allah too. In some cultures, people would get together and kidnap then lynch anybody who had some sort of business advantage. What culture could that be?
Life is short, so I might as well enjoy some good food, especially since Allah granted me some knowledge of cooking. There is an excellent tofu maker at the main market downtown, who makes fresh tofu so smooth and creamy. No one else here compares to him. So here is a tofu omelet with mini pita breads:
And here is a big old helping of fried calamari with home made hot sauce:
Want some?
Dear beautiful Natty, I wish you condolences on the passing of your father. From Allah is our origin, and to Allah is our return. But life goes on. This is because we have loved ones who are still alive. Your career is peaking right now, so please don't let that go. To have yourself on a giant electronic billboard in Times Square is a big boost, but it's actually not a blessing for you. This is because America is not your turf. I want your bosses to relocate you to Paris. I want you to stay away from America for 4 to 8 years. We can't control where your bosses choose to print your photos, but at least you shouldn't live in the USA. Pina, I want your bosses to situate you in Milan. That way, the fashion industry will be able to utilize my influence in America, France, and Italy. Then all of you can look East.
