&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Sunday morning, at the McDonald&amp;#39;s at the corner of Xueqian and Zhongshan Roads, ten thousand Wuxi Expats could be seen waiting in line to get the American delicacy, which, more than being food, is seen a symbol of the human aspiration for liberty.  Waiting to buy the Hot Dogs, the Expats were in a jubilant mood as they formed a slowly moving and dancing conga line waiting to be served.  The fortunate Wuxi Expats who had places in front of the line and were able to buy and consume their hot dogs first, could be afterwards seen performing the Prisyadaka dance arm-in-arm with those who had also finished their hot dogs.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Many Expats, when asked about their jubilation, said it was great to get hot dogs at very affordable price in Wuxi.  One Expat, Duston Short, the Midget Sumo Wrestling champion of the WCE, said he hadn&amp;#39;t had a cheap hot dog in years.  He then bought sixty, and could be seen eating them in all his classes as he taught at English Fungus Language School.  Andis Kaulins, the English Teacher who is not be confused with the Andis Kaulins who is the President of the Wuxi Expat Rifle Association and  the Andis Kaulins is who the President of the Wuxi China Expatdom Elite Expat Association, told the WCE Blog that he remembered there was a place serving hot dogs seven years in the WCE.  &amp;quot;Its menu started out with western-style dogs but quickly evolved into unimaginable recipes appealing to local tastes before it finally went out of business.  Since then, the Wuxi China Expatdom has been a desert when it comes to Hot Dogs.  I can understand the jubiliation that long-time Wuxi Expats feel at seeing hot dogs on the McDonald&amp;#39;s menu!&amp;quot; said ET Kaulins.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Other Expats said it was wonderful to see food, symbolic of the human aspiration for freedom and liberty, being served in the Expatdom.  Wuxi China Expat philosopher Henri Raulston Hume told the WCE Blog that the Hot Dogs were a &amp;quot;metaphysical revelation&amp;quot; to him and that he would order four hot dogs the next time he went to McDonalds.  &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-6842240226356598984?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/6842240226356598984/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/03/wuxi-expats-going-crazy-for-mcdonalds.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/6842240226356598984'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/6842240226356598984'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/03/wuxi-expats-going-crazy-for-mcdonalds.html' title='Wuxi Expats going crazy for McDonald&apos;s Breakfast Hot Dogs'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323725627181770083.post-3532733433395958893</id><published>2012-03-09T18:39:00.010-08:00</published><updated>2012-03-09T18:55:44.976-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Wuxi Expats Lake Taihu Regatta Yachts'/><title type='text'>Wuxi China Expatdom to hold its first annual Lake Taihu Regatta</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lku3f77kk4s/T1q_RqysUOI/AAAAAAAAPio/3Me3MPbhxMs/s1600/sailing%2Bnaturists.JPG" style="font-family: Georgia, serif;

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Duston Short, the game&amp;#39;s organizer, told the WCE Blog that though he and many of the Expats had lived in Wuxi for years, they hadn&amp;#39;t realized how hard it would be to have a street hockey on Zhongshan Road on a Saturday Afternoon.  &amp;quot;There were so many pedestrians, cyclists, buses, and taxis on the road and we kept running into them.  We stood around for twenty minutes at one point waiting for the traffic to go away.  I think we even lost one of our goalies because he was run over by the #81 bus.  Still, we would have kept on playing but we only brought two tennis balls with us, and both of them got runned over and crushed by taxis!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Short said that he and members of the Ontario Wuxi International Expat group (the OWIE group) would hold a general meeting to determine if maybe they should play their games at the New Sports Centre on Taihu Dadao.  &amp;quot;Chestnut Pub owner Wally Droop, and many others, had told us that we should have done that in the first place but we didn&amp;#39;t listen to them!&amp;quot; said Short.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-727735592642671063?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/727735592642671063/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/03/wuxi-expats-from-ontario-canada-forced.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/727735592642671063'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/727735592642671063'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/03/wuxi-expats-from-ontario-canada-forced.html' title='Wuxi Expats from Ontario, Canada forced to cancel Saturday Afternoon Street Hockey Game'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323725627181770083.post-5775365195939150690</id><published>2012-03-09T07:10:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-03-09T07:10:33.927-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Wuxi China Expatdom Civil War takes dramatic turn as the two WCEDVDAS groups declare war on the WCEWCEDVDASCWARS</title><content type='html'>A dramatic realignment of alliances has taken place in what has been called the WCEDVDAS Civil War.  The two WCEDVDAS organizations, originally at war with each other, shocked the world by declaring that the Wuxi China Expatdom WCEDVDAS Civil War Appreciation and Reenactment Society (WCEWCEDVDASWARS) had become their common enemy, and that effective immediately they both would fight future Wuxi China Expatdom Civil War battles against it.  The WCEWCEDVDASWARS which had been neutral in the war, saying it had appreciated the efforts of the two WCEDVDAS armies, then declared it was prepared to fight a war of self-defense against the two WCEDVDAS organizations. &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Wuxi China Expatdom Dick Van Dyke Appreciation Society and the Wuxi China Expatdom DVD Appreciation Society had originally gone to war because of a booking conflict, that was never resolved and involved Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society President Harry Moore who had been scheduled to speak at their grand conventions on the same night.  The WCEDVDAS Civil War had been proceeding splendidly, noted observers, with many record-breaking battles involving tanks, battle ships and old-fashioned cavalry, resulting in record memorabilia sales revenue for the Wuxi China Expatdom International Expeditionary Force, the exclusive supplier of WCEDVDAS Civil War memorabilia.  But then the WCEWCEDVDASWARS began to reenact the battles and take supplies needed by the two WCEDVDAS armies to fight their original battles.  The WCEWCEDVDASWARS so ruined the logistical supply chains of the two WCEDVDAS armies that a major battle, which was to have been a tribute to the battle of Marathon, had to be postponed.  The WCEWCEDVDASWARS then staged its reenactment of the battle, that was to be a tribute to the battle of Marathon, before the original battle had even taken place!  This was a humiliation that was borne by the commanders of both WCEDVDAS armies causing them to ally themselves against the reenactors.&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The dramatic realignment of alliances has angered the WCEIEF which has seen its sales of WCEDVDAS Civil War memorabilia plummet.  The WCEIEF is contemplating supplying logisitical and military support to the two WCEDVDAS armies. &amp;quot;We had planned on the WCEDVDAS Civil War lasting another week!&amp;quot; complained WCEIEF commander Karl Malden, &amp;quot;and so we have hundreds of millions of dollars of WCEDVDAS Civil War memorabilia, in our warehouses which is now obsolete.  We will start producing lots of WCEDVDAS -- WCEWCEDVDASWARS Civil War products of course, but we don&amp;#39;t know what we are going to do with the stock we already have!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Many fear that other Wuxi China Expatdom Appreciation Societies will be dragged into the conflict.  An extensive network of secret alliances has been formed over the last year, so observers are unsure on which side of the civil war many of the appreciation societies are.  One such organization, the Wuxi China Expatdom Mary Tyler Moore Appreciation Society (the WCEMTMAS), has pledged logistical support to the WCEDVDAS side.  Another organization, the Wuxi China Expatdom Appreciation Society Appreciation Society (the WCEASAS) has reportedly sided with the WCEWCEDVDASWARS.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Many of the appreciation societies are apparently waiting to see with whom the Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society will side.  However, WCEFAS President Harry Moore is reportedly in seclusion rehearsing his honeymoon with his new bride Mrs. Miss Moneypenny Moore so his endorsement may be a long time coming..  An endorsement by the WCEFAS President, who is also a WCE Archduke, will result in a lot of legitimacy for the side endorsed.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;Again!&amp;quot; says, Wuxi China Expatdom historian Edward Gibbon, &amp;quot;the fate of the Wuxi China Expatdom rests with Harry Moore!  I speak for all Wuxi China Expatdomites when I say I implode him to make his allegiance in this conflict known!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-5775365195939150690?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/5775365195939150690/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/03/wuxi-china-expatdom-civil-war-takes.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/5775365195939150690'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/5775365195939150690'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/03/wuxi-china-expatdom-civil-war-takes.html' title='Wuxi China Expatdom Civil War takes dramatic turn as the two WCEDVDAS groups declare war on the WCEWCEDVDASCWARS'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323725627181770083.post-4751336507373179996</id><published>2012-03-08T18:35:00.002-08:00</published><updated>2012-03-09T07:27:48.871-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Wuxi Expat Family longtouzhou park families naturist naturism'/><title type='text'>More and more families choosing to live in the Wuxi China Expatdom</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VS6MS-tHTpc/T1lseqTKuSI/AAAAAAAAPhg/hCtp8fkEC-U/s1600/family_nudism-737928.jpg"&gt;&lt;img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VS6MS-tHTpc/T1lseqTKuSI/AAAAAAAAPhg/hCtp8fkEC-U/s400/family_nudism-737928.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5717720475930114338" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;More and more families are choosing to live in the Wuxi China Expatdom according to Bob S. Grant, the President of the Wuxi China Expatdom Families Council (WCEFC).&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"No longer is the Wuxi China Expatdom a place for English Teachers and cheating Engineers to sow their oats!" said Grant, a Claremont, California proctologist turned English teacher.  "Thanks to the wise rule of his majesty King Gorzo the Mighty and the efficient administration of Prime Minister Mango, the WCE is now a place for families.  The previous  King of Wuxi, the Ayatollah of Mordor, besides being a threat to the idea of personal ablutions was also an absolute menace to honest and moral people raising families!  It takes great discipline on my part to not utter his name and not spitting on the ground!…. Anyway, my wife Clare, a former tax attorney who also teaches English now, and my two children love it here.  There is nothing we like better than to stroll the parks of Wuxi, China and browse through a copy of the Poolside Harry Moore.  And if we aren't doing that, we  study the amazing feats of King Gorzo, Queen Ayira: the Chosen One, Chief Inspector Harry Callahan,  Prime Minister Mango, Wonder Woman, Admiral Lloyd Bridges and General Colonel Harlan Sanders — they are are a great source of inspiration for us!"&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"And of course, the Wuxi China Expatdom has everything a family needs to live the good family life.  There are plenty of parks, many churches and synagogues, lots of shopping and great schools!"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"We have told all our friends about the WCE and many have already moved here.  Many parts of California, including our hometown of Claremont, have turned into ghosts towns, as they have abandoned their prosperous middle-class lives and chosen to become English Teaching families in the Wuxi China Expatdom.  Yes!  The WCE is the closest on Earth that one can get to Heaven!"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-4751336507373179996?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/4751336507373179996/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/03/more-and-more-families-choosing-to-live.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/4751336507373179996'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/4751336507373179996'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/03/more-and-more-families-choosing-to-live.html' title='More and more families choosing to live in the Wuxi China Expatdom'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VS6MS-tHTpc/T1lseqTKuSI/AAAAAAAAPhg/hCtp8fkEC-U/s72-c/family_nudism-737928.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323725627181770083.post-4031176562290970934</id><published>2012-03-07T21:25:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-03-07T21:25:22.596-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Wuxi China Sexpat says he has special present for the ladies on Women's Day</title><content type='html'>John Hefner, a prominent Wuxi China Sexpat, says he has a special present for ladies on March 8th, which Women&amp;#39;s Day as declared by the United Nations.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;If they come &amp;#39;round to my place anytime today -- I took March 8th off especially for them -- they can get their present!  Yozza Yozza!&amp;quot;

 &lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;To the consternation of some and the amusement of others, the WCEWCEDVDASCWARS has already began to reenact the battles of the WCEDVDAS Civil War.  They reenacted March 2nd&amp;#39;s Battle of Lake Taihu on March 3rd.  They reenacted March 4&amp;#39;s Armour Battle, the Battle of Xueqian and Zhongshan Roads on March 5th, and they reenacted March 6th&amp;#39;s Cavalry Battle at the Five Kingdoms Park on March 7th.  WCEDVDAS Civil War observers have complained that their reenactments have been so authentic that they have had a hard time determining these days if they are watching real warfare or an reenactment.  &lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Commanders of two WCEDVDAS armies have also complained that they have had logistical difficulties because the WCEWCEDVDASCWARS has already gotten possession of military equipment that they need for the actual battles.  In fact, the battle that the two WCEDVDAS armies were to fight on March 8th, which was to be a tribute to the battle of Marathon, has had to be postponed till after the reenactment is held on March 9th.  &amp;quot;We don&amp;#39;t have any Hoplite spears and shields yet because the WCEWCEDVDASCWARS rented them all!&amp;quot;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Doctor Marcus Welby Scott the Second, head of the emergency department at the Wuxi China Expatdom General Hospital #15, told the WCE blog that on Wednesday evening several Expats from Ontario, Canada were picked up in the area of Nanchang Jie Bar Street, taken to the WCEGH #15 emergency section and are now listed in serious, but stable condition in the pronunciation injuries ward.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Officer McNulty, of the Wuxi China Expatdom police squad, told the WCE Blog that investigations conducted by his crack team of constables and their gorilla helpers revealed that the Ontario Expats had been drinking and talking about the WCEDVDAS Civil War.  "They spent a least three hours last night trying to pronounce "WCEDVDAS."  They were not dissuaded by other patrons telling them that "WCEDVDAS" was an acronym and that pronouncing it as if it were a word was futile.  When the manager at Dangle's Participle told them to vacate the premises, they left immediately, but were so engrossed in the pronunciation of WCEDVDAS that they didn't pay attention to where they were going.  Several of them walked straight into a nearby canal.  At least two walked right into moving traffic.  Another kept banging his head into a wall that he kept trying to walk into!" said McNulty.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Military Commanders of the two WCEDVDAS organizations involved in the Civil War had proudly boasted that no civilians had been injured or killed in their skirmishing.  When confronted with reports of the injuries of the Ontario Expats, both commanders said that they Ontario Expats couldn't really be classified as civilians.  One commander went so far as to say, off the record, that Expats from Ontario, Canada couldn't even be classified as human.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The WCEDVDAS civil war, which has been going on since March 2, has already seen memorabilia sales exceed those of World Wars One and Two combined. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-7561218575964122137?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/7561218575964122137/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/03/wuxi-expats-from-ontario-canada.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/7561218575964122137'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/7561218575964122137'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/03/wuxi-expats-from-ontario-canada.html' title='Wuxi Expats from Ontario, Canada hospitalized after trying to pronounce an abbreviation as a word'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323725627181770083.post-30026800132594859</id><published>2012-03-06T05:42:00.005-08:00</published><updated>2012-03-06T06:50:43.901-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Naturists Beseech Andis Kaulins To Broker Peaceful End To Civil War</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3CIsy58cpLo/T1YU9Dk40AI/AAAAAAAAAQg/CG0nBtdOVsQ/s1600/Blog_Naturists.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 162px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3CIsy58cpLo/T1YU9Dk40AI/AAAAAAAAAQg/CG0nBtdOVsQ/s320/Blog_Naturists.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5716779816158023682" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;        They came by bus. They came by foot. They came crawling on their stomachs.&lt;br /&gt;An estimated 3 billion Naturists - predominantly English teachers, gathered in the Wuxi China Expatdom today. As the WCEDVDAS Civil War continues to escalate, WCE peaceniks joined with buff-naked Expats from all corners of the Expatdom's far-flung Colonies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;        Their objective was to prevail upon English Teacher Andis Kaulins to &lt;br /&gt;act as spokesman and leader in their anti-war stance. Converging at the intersection of Xuegian and Zhongshan Roads - the WCE's epicentre of greatness, equivalent to Times Square, the multitude proudly exposed their loins and proceeded to Andis Kaulin's Ivy League Varsity Faculty, hoping to persuade him to join their cause, and to employ his peerless skills in negotiating an armistice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;        The Naturist's leader, Rory Calhoun, from the Bengbu Expatdom Colony, said that Andis Kaulins was the best, and only, personage who could restore peace.&lt;br /&gt;"His tact, his diplomacy, his mastery of oratory", said Calhoun, "and his &lt;br /&gt;unmatched conciliatory, sensitive, prudent, suave and artful qualities make Andis Kaulins our chosen emissary. And, add to all that his expertise  with demonstrative pronouns, intransitive verbs, subordinate clauses, peripheral adjectives, inverse modal auxillaries, and, best of all, bare infinitive clauses, make Andis Kaulins The Great Communicator who, alone, can succeed in this mission".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;        But the throng was in for a rude, nude shock. At the granite-columned portal of the Faculty, the Idamizer - Royal Keeper of All Lists, told them that&lt;br /&gt;they were too late. "Andis Kaulins has taken a sabbatical", she explained. "He has removed his pants, taken his board, and has gone to the Beixhing Expatdom to go surfing".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;        The conflict rages on......&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-30026800132594859?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/30026800132594859/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/03/naturists-beseech-andis-kaulins-to.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/30026800132594859'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/30026800132594859'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/03/naturists-beseech-andis-kaulins-to.html' title='Naturists Beseech Andis Kaulins To Broker Peaceful End To Civil War'/><author><name>Dirt  E.

Nearly 8,000 super tanks, 36,000 guns and mortars, 5,000 planes and twenty amphibious aircraft carriers were involved in the battle.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Wuxi China Expatdom International Expeditionary Force Commander Karl Malden, whose organization is the exclusive official supplier of WCEDVDAS memorabilia, said the size of the battle should be great for their sales.  "The fact that the battle wasn't one-sided and that there were several counter-offensives during the day, coupled with many controversial command decision by commanders of both armies will mean the official computer simulation of the battle, available on apps for both the Iphone and Android phones, will be very popular.  As well, we have bobble head dolls of all the commanders of today's battle including WCEDVDAS commanders Erich von Manstein the second and Nikolay Vatutin Junior.  We have managed to collect all the debris from the 2,400 planes, 2,000 tanks, and 4400 guns destroyed in the battle and are taking bids!

 He located his eventual bride after asking a few Security guards and street-side hawkers for directions to a W.C. before finally having locals take him to &amp;quot;her.&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;I wasn&amp;#39;t smitten with &amp;quot;her&amp;quot; at first!&amp;#39; said Ostrowski, &amp;quot;She was old, stinky and nausea-inducing, but I had to go and I did my business in her!  A week later, I found the knowledge of her location useful as I found myself wandering Nanchang Jie Street at five in the morning after having had drunk too much and being abandoned by a local girl who I had thought was to accompany me home!  That second time, feeling lonely and not wanting to wet my pants, I  went to &amp;quot;her.&amp;quot;  I admired the relief she gave me and the fact that she hadn&amp;#39;t abandoned me -- I felt an emotional bond then and there.  I also started to take in &amp;quot;her&amp;quot; exoticism.  Heck!  I found myself liking &amp;quot;her&amp;quot; odour.  And it carried on from there!  One thing leading to another, as it were.  Even when I was in a bar with a urinal, I found myself eschewing the short trip for the out-of-the-way trip to &amp;quot;her!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ostrowski told the WCE Blog that he had filed an application for a wedding license with the Wuxi China Expatdom Marriage Bureau.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Gabriel Conroy, spokesman for the WCE Marriage Bureau, says he may not be able to grant a wedding license to Ostrowski. &amp;quot;The Public Urinal belongs to the locals, and we would be infringing on their sovereignty if we permitted Ostrowski to marry it.&amp;quot; said Conroy in yet another exclusive interview with the WCE Blog.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ostrowski is the twentieth-second Wuxi Expat to have announced a desire to marry a Wuxi, China Public Washroom.  Earlier this year, twenty one members of the Occupy Movement applied, but didn&amp;#39;t receive permission to marry the urinals at the Chestnut Pub.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Drinking Associates of Ostrowski say he has threatened suicide if he cannot marry the Public Washroom.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Wuxi China Expatdom is the only jurisdiction in the world to permit Human -- Inanimate Object marriage.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The WCEDVDAS War, itself, got off to a smashing beginning as the two WCEDVDAS navies fought a opening skirmish on Lake Taihu in which they both claimed victory.  Neutral observers have agreed that 5 carriers, 1 destroyer and 1 cruiser were sunk, and that 398 aircraft were destroyed in the Battle of Lake Taihu, but have widely disagreed about the numbers lost by each Navy.&lt;/div&gt;

Long time Harry Moore watcher Andis Kaulins, not be confused with the English Teacher of the same name, or the Wuxi Expat Rifle Association President of the same name, said that either "President Moore was unaware there was a conflict or he was again displaying his calm, virile, sunny and optimistic manner under pressure for which he is famous!"&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After the release of the ambiguous statement, millions of media men searched every nook and cranny of the Wuxi China Expatdom hoping to locate President Moore.  He was eventually found by CNN at a local Kedi buying tea-leaf eggs and a Snickers bar.  When asked about the booking conflict, Moore told CNN that the conflict was the fault of his secretary Miss Moneypenny.  "That naughty secretary!  Every time I spank her for this, she calls me "Tarzan", her "Big Mountain Lion" and "Harry dear", and you know, I just don't have the heart to spank her in a rough way!  I just pat her gently!  This afternoon, I will go round to her place -- I like to let her work at her place or mine -- and we will consult, passionately, I mean sternly and seriously, about how to resolve this conflict!  She has suggested that I toss a coin!  But I don't know where on my person I left my change.  Thankfully, Miss Moneypenny says she will help me find it!"&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The two WCEDVDAS organizations are both holding their grand convention tonight and both have Harry Moore scheduled as a Keynote Speaker.  They have threatened to go to war if Moore speaks to the other organization.  Thousands of tanks, amphibious aircraft carriers and infantry have been seen massing on both sides of Xueqian Road in Downtown Wuxi where the organizations are headquartered.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-7246010986188139709?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/7246010986188139709/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/02/wuxi-china-expatdom-film-appreciation_29.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/7246010986188139709'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/7246010986188139709'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/02/wuxi-china-expatdom-film-appreciation_29.html' title='Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society President says he will speak to the WCEDVDAS on the evening of March 1.'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323725627181770083.post-3459977950408246030</id><published>2012-02-28T23:29:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-02-28T23:29:33.586-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Wuxi Expat from Ontario, Canada doesn't go to work on February 29</title><content type='html'>Duston Short, English Teacher and the Wuxi China Expatdom Midget Sumo Wrestling Champion, didn&amp;#39;t go to work on Wednesday, February 29.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;Wednesday, I normally go to work if I am not sick!&amp;quot;

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;There have reports of heavy infantry and tank movements,  military aircraft flyovers and camouflaged amphibious aircraft carriers parked along Xueqian road where the two organizations both have offices.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In response to the rumors of a WCEDVDAS war, panicky Wuxi Expats have been stocking up on canned foods, DVDs and Tsingtao Beer.  As well, the Wuxi China Expatdom religious community has held prayer services for peace at the million churches, mosques, synagogues and temples in the Wuxi China Expatdom.  Wuxi Sexpats, in turn, have been extra active with Bar Girls and have set up a sanctuary for them which they say they will keep open whether there is a war or not.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The eyes of the Wuxi China Expatdom will be on Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society President Harry Moore the evening of March 1 when he is still scheduled to deliver a lecture to both WCEDVDAS grand conventions at 700 p.m.   Unfortunately, the conventions are being held in different parts of the Expatdom making it physically impossible fro President Moore to speak to both organizations at the same time.  By only speaking to one, Moore would offend the other of the WCEDVDAS groups and both of them would see it as a &lt;i&gt;casus belli&lt;/i&gt; to attack the other WCEDVDAS.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Nabors said it was love at first sight when she laid his eyes on the Big Buddha.  &amp;quot;I came to Ling Shan expecting to fall into a tourist trap.  Instead I fell in love!  Despite what Let&amp;#39;s Go says about the Ling Shan Big Buddha, I was instantly entranced!  I broke through security because Ihad to fondle, grope and caress all 100 meters of him from the top of his head to the bottom of lotus pedestal on which he stands.&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;

said owner Bruce Dragon in an exclusive interview with the WCE blog. &amp;nbsp;&amp;quot;We will have Martial Arts coaches, sages and trainers on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 or 366 days a year, including Christmas and Spring Festival to cater to your martial arts training needs! &amp;nbsp;And there isn&amp;#39;t a style of Martial Arts you can&amp;#39;t learn at Dragon&amp;#39;s! &amp;nbsp;We have the Northern and Southern Chinese styles like the northern fist (北拳) or the southern fist (南拳). &amp;nbsp;And you can learn the horse, bow, drop, and dragon stances, whether in the traditional or modern manner!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;If you don&amp;#39;t have time to study, we have professional Martial Arts mercenaries for hire whom you can spar with or whom you can enlist to help you settle your personal scores! &amp;nbsp;

&amp;nbsp;Every day we hold a world championship Martial Arts competition. &amp;nbsp;Our Marital Arts museum is the biggest museum in the world. &amp;nbsp;We have every Martial Arts movie ever made playing in our ten thousand screen multiplex cinema. &amp;nbsp;We have an authentic to-scale replica of Hong Kong 1972 where Bruce Lee lived. &amp;nbsp;We have one million authentic Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris look-a-likes for you to pose with and test your Kung-Fu skills. &amp;nbsp;Our library and database contains all ancient and current research and thought about&amp;nbsp;Martial&amp;nbsp;Arts! &amp;nbsp;We have on-site plastic surgeons who can make you look like Bruce Lee, Jackie Chen or Chuck Norris. &amp;nbsp;Our souvenir shop is as big as Ba Bai Ban! &amp;nbsp;And as a special treat, thanks to the our&amp;nbsp;physicists, who are world experts in multi-verse theory, we have all the movies that Bruce Lee would have made if he hadn&amp;#39;t died so young!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;On Dragon&amp;#39;s Martial Arts Park grand opening night, Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society President Harry Moore delivered a special lecture about the films made in this universe and other&amp;nbsp;parallel&amp;nbsp;universes by Bruce Lee. &amp;nbsp;After the lecture, the audience began to dance a new dance: &amp;nbsp;the Kung Fu Prisyakda Hustle to the virtuoso musical renderings and&amp;nbsp;vocalizings&amp;nbsp;of Harry Callahan and the WCE Trio.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Originally from Seattle, Bruce Dragon studied philosophy and Martial Arts, spending lots of time in Hong Kong and Hollywood where he opened prestigious Martial Arts Studios catering to the stars. &amp;nbsp; When he conceived the idea for his enormous Martial Arts Park, he shocked many in the Martial Arts industry by choosing the Wuxi China Expatdom to be the park&amp;#39;s site. &amp;nbsp;But &amp;nbsp;Dragon had no doubt in his mind that it was the right thing to do. &amp;nbsp;&amp;quot;There was Bruce Lee! &amp;nbsp;Then there is the Wuxi China Expatdom which has Gorzo the Mighty, Mango, Harry Callahan, Admiral Lloyd Bridges, General Colonel Sanders and Harry Moore -- that&amp;#39;s Bruce Lee to the power of seven. &amp;nbsp;The Wuxi China Expatdom is the world capital of Martial Arts!!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;

Said McNulty: &amp;quot;Beside the million police officers, General Colonel Harlan Sanders of the WCE Land Force has pledged armor and artillery assistance: WCERAF Air Marshall Gregory Peck says his ten thousand bombers will be on the highest alert for as long as it takes us to rid the Expatdom of pretentious French speaking; and WCERN Admiral Lloyd Bridges has told me that if need be, we can use his aircraft carriers and that the 200m cannons of his battleships can easily rain down fire on anyone using pretentious French phraseology where ever they may be in the Expatdom!&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Officer McNulty told the WCE Blog that he was inspired by Harry Moore, the WCE&amp;#39;s Minister of Colonies, who had set-out on a crusade to eradicate all French movies in the Wuxi China Expatdom.  &amp;quot;I agree with President Moore&amp;#39;s contention that French movies have a bad influence on personal character of Wuxi Expats and on the beauty of standard English spoken correctly!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;

 &lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Tewilliger&amp;#39;s home room teacher Miss Wilkinson says Tewilliger is already his own man and rules the Bethune Elementary playground.  &amp;quot;Bobby is a preternatural polymath.  He already runs a ten million dollar a year plumbing contracting business, written three novels, gotten five female students and four of his teachers pregnant, pitched a no-hitter for the Atlanta Braves baseball team,  discovered material that can be a super conductor at room temperature, and designed and manufactured an amphibious main battle tank that can be driven two miles under the ocean&amp;#39;s surface.  When he walks the playground sporting a monocle, wearing a Gorzo the Mighty t-shirt, carrying a copy of the Poolside Harry Moore and performing the Prisyadka dance, the girls swoon and all the boys bend their head down reverentially in admiration!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Tewilliger told the WCE Blog that before he heard about the Wuxi China Expatdom that he was just a run-of-the-mill toddler who liked to watch Dora the Explorer, pick his nose, scratch his bum and drink too much coca-cola.  &amp;quot;But when I  read and heard about Gorzo the Mighty, Archduke Harry Moore&amp;#39;s many great accomplishments and his novel the Poolside Harry Moore, the revolution that brought down the Ayatollah of Mordor, the Wuxi China Expatdom Royal Navy commanded by Admiral Lloyd Bridges;  the music of Harry Callahan and the WCE Trio, and Wonder Woman; I realized that there was more to life and that a Wuxi Expat was what I had to be!&amp;quot; said Tewilliger, who says he is saying money from his plumbing contracting business to buy an airplane ticket to the WCE.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The record was surprising since on water, the 150,00 ton WCERN Basil Rathbone&amp;#39;s top speed was 70 knots. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For Admiral Bridges, the setting of the land speed record was sweet vindication.  &amp;quot;They thought I was nuts when I first proposed the building of amphibious aircraft carriers.  The critics scoffed and said that amphibious aircraft carriers were too cumbersome to ever travel overland.  They didn&amp;#39;t understand just how revolutionary was my super sonic nuclear motor technology and the quantum friction-reducing metal which I placed on the WCERN Basil Rathbone&amp;#39;s keel!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After setting the land speed record, the crew of the WCERN Basil Rathbone could be seen Prisyadka dancing on the deck.  Archduke Harry Moore, one of the first to back Admiral Bridges amphibious aircraft carrier idea, was permitted to join the crew as they danced on the deck.  Admiral Bridges then made Archduke Moore an honorary WCERN Admiral and presented him with the keys to the ship.&lt;/div&gt;

"Since then, I have been able to fondle, kiss, grope and caress all her 48 floors and   her 136,218 square meters of floor space.  I have run my toes over her glass, steel and concrete.  It is my dream to one day be able to straddle her 92 foot tall spire." said Schram.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;Schram told the WCE Blog that he had filed an application for a wedding license with the Wuxi China Expatdom Marriage Bureau.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;Gabriel Conroy, spokesman for the WCE Marriage Bureau, says he may not be able to grant a wedding license to Schram.  "The Hongdou Building belongs to the locals, and we would be infringing on their sovereignty if we permitted Schram to marry it." said Conroy in an exclusive interview with the WCE Blog.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;Schram is the second Wuxi Expat to have announced a desire to marry a Wuxi, China skyscraper.

Millions of Wuxi Expats had been performing the dance after it had been done in the celebrations that followed Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society President Harry Moore's lecture at Ford's Theater in Washington D.C.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Acting Chief Inspector of the Wuxi China Expatdom Officer McNulty provided details of what might have happened to a packed press conference held at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion of Gambay's Pub in the 1912 Bar District of Wuxi, China.  "To be honest," said McNulty, "we don't know what exactly the Ontario Expats were trying to do!  Many of them had black eyes and broken noses from being kicked in the face.  Many of them fell in the canal behind Dangle's Participle, so we suspect that they were trying to perform the dance on a pier with no fence.  Two of them managed to get run over by car traffic.  Three of them went to the bathroom, tried to do the dance there and so were clobbered by other patrons.  A few of them accidently swallowed their monocles which they tried to wear as they performed the dance.  Many of the others have to go get their monocles surgically removed from intimate parts of their bodies.  And we don't think we will ever find out how Duston Short managed to swallow a football, four pairs of traditional Russian Prisyadka dancing slippers and his twin brother Justin's watch -- it may well be that these swallowings were unrelated to the dancing incident!" &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;McNulty then said that he would canvass the WCE parliament and ask them to make laws regulating Prisyadka Dancing and Monocle Wearing.  "I think that one should have a license before attempting to Prisyadka dance and wear monocles at the same time!"&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The newly-formed Wuxi China Expatdom Monocle Wearers Society (WCEMWS) and Wuxi China Expatdom Prisyadka Dancers Association (WCEPDA), after hearing McNulty's comments quickly issued a joint press release saying that regulation and laws were unnecessary.  "Millions of Wuxi Expats have been able to enjoy Prisyadka Dancing and wear monocles without doing harm to anyone.  Why should we let a stupid minority of Ontarians ruin it for everyone?  This group of Ontarians previously got lost walking home, got all their heads stuck in cupboards, and had to be hospitalized because they drank Chestnut Pub toilet water.  You cannot make laws against stupidity so why trample on the freedoms that Wuxi Expats currently enjoy by bringing in an evil centrally-concentrated bureaucratic infrastructure?"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-1649251704664614376?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/1649251704664614376/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/02/prisyadka-dancing-craze-in-wuxi-china.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/1649251704664614376'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/1649251704664614376'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/02/prisyadka-dancing-craze-in-wuxi-china.html' title='Prisyadka Dancing Craze in the Wuxi China Expatdom claims its first victims'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323725627181770083.post-5659421370516779983</id><published>2012-02-23T18:40:00.002-08:00</published><updated>2012-02-23T18:42:46.248-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Rain and Alcohol make Wuxi Expat think he is back in England</title><content type='html'>Monty Byng, an English English Teacher living in the Wuxi China Expatdom, thinks that he is back in England in a really big China town.

Sammy Dangle, owner of Dangle's Participle, told the WCE Blog that Byng has been the Pub's best customer during the recent spell of rain and does seem to have lost some of his senses.  "At closing time, I have to pick him up off the floor and put him in a cab!

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Dance craze came to Wuxi as a result of Russians doing the dance during celebrations that took after Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society President Harry Moore&amp;#39;s lecture, delivered at Ford&amp;#39;s Theater in Washington D.C., about cinematic depictions of the U.S. Civil War.  Gambay&amp;#39;s Pub in the 1912 Bar District of Wuxi, China has set up a special Prisyadka Dance Room.  Already, Wuxi Expats have formed a Prisyadka arm-in-arm dance line spanning one end of Nanchang Jie Bar Street to the other.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Observers of WCEFAS President Harry Moore&amp;#39;s lectures speculate that the Prisyadka Dance could replace the conga lines which have been the traditional method of celebrating Moore&amp;#39;s orations.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Moore&amp;#39;s lectures have resulted in conga lines, millions of people and miles long.  Wuxi China Expats now hope to break the world record for the widest arm-in-arm Prisyadka group dance which is 3,789 set after a speech by Boris Yeltsin to the Russian Duma in the 1990s.  Prime Minister of the Wuxi China Expatdom, Mango thinks that Wuxi Expats can easily reach the one million Prisyadka participant width in the next few weeks.&lt;br clear="all"&gt;

The assassins resumed watching the film and readied for their next move, which was to attack President Moore with daggers as he delivered his after-film lecture.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But their plans were thwarted by Moore's impeccable manner of dress, and his god-given oratory and dancing skills.  Before Moore made his speech, his golden smile which reflected a sunny Reagan-like optimism, and his dress featuring impeccably tailored blazer and slacks that were finished off with a perfectly tied cravat and fedora, made even the most hard-boiled of the assassins look at him with open-mouthed admiration.  When he spoke, the would-be assassins went into raptures because of the sweet sound of his oratory, and dropped their daggers.   And when Moore began to accompany his oratory with the up-to-date and graceful dance moves of Fred Astaire, the assassins became fans.  At the conclusion of Moore's speech, the crowd, which had only an hour earlier wanted to see him dead, formed a conga line of celebration and danced for hours.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Russians, who were part of the assassination plot, introduced a new element into the post Harry Moore Speech celebration.  Hundreds of them, arm-in-arm, performed the Prisyadka, the famous Russian squat-kick dance.  Not since the time of Peter the Great, had so many of them done the Prisyadka at the same time.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;WCEFAS President Moore will return to the Wuxi China Expatdom where he has to sort out a booking conflict with the two WCEDVDAS organizations.

 They further asserted that the right to nuclear energy was their undisputable right and that the Wuxi China Expatdom Dick Van Dyke Appreciation Society had better not use lies, political pressure or military pressure to stop them from their lawful right.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asked why an organization that meet bi-weekly to discuss DVDs should have a nuclear programme, Safari said the energy needs of the Wuxi China Expatdom Dick Van Dyke were more than what the uninitiated might be lead to expect.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asked about rhetoric coming from certain quarters of the Wuxi China Expatdom DVD Appreciation Society that they should destroy the Dick Van Dykers; that the Wuxi China Expatdom Dick Van Dyke Appreciation Society should be wiped off the map; that the false WCEDVDAS should be wiped from the page of time; and that the Dick Van Dykers were Germs; Safari said that rhetoric was hyperbolic and nothing more.  &amp;quot;Given the tension,&amp;quot;

improve your golf swing; control your temper -- although if you are righteous, I don&amp;#39;t see the need; improve your posture; succeed in business or warfare; or perform better in the sack, i.e. keep your wife happy; VGSPL Personal Trainer Services is the only self-improvement service you will ever need!  Think of VGSPL as your personal boutique sergeant-major.  You will learn to hate us but you will love the results!&amp;quot;  said Lombardi, who added that VGSPL&amp;#39;s approach to personal-training was old-school.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asked if he saw potential in the Wuxi China Expatdom, which by any standards, was the greatest jurisdiction in human history for economic, intellectual, scientific, spiritual, sporting, philosophical and artistic achievement, Lombardi said that the achievements of the WCE could be attributed to a very small elite minority.  &amp;quot;Of course this group; consisting of Gorzo the Mighty, Alfred Lord McClusky, Harry Callahan, Harry Moore, Lloyd Bridges, Gregory Peck, Mango, Ayira: the Chosen One, the sportsmen Rabbis and Colonel Harlan Sanders; is the greatest collection of humanity ever, but that doesn&amp;#39;t mean there is no room for self-improvement among the rest of the Wuxi Expats.  I understand that there are in the WCE, groups of Expats from Ontario, Canada;  as well as English teachers and Sexpats who could all use a good and swift kick in the ass!&amp;quot;  said Lombardi.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Lombardi praised the Wuxi China Expatdom, saying it was enlightened in that it saw the wisdom of things from the past that are currently considered unenlightened.  &amp;quot;In the Wuxi China Expatdom, they are free to paddle and righteously punish those who are lazy and immoral.  And I can practice my favorite training technique which is to make my clients dig a hole as fast as they can, or else have a super-tank run them over.  That teaches concentration of the mind like nothing else!  And when we have our to-the-death gladiator competitions before graduation, there is none of this not-keeping-score baloney!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Kim Jung Un, North Korea leader, issued a declaration stating that President Moore should address the Wuxi China Expatdom Dick Van Dyke Appreciation Society Convention.  Un said his father, the great leader King Jung Il, loved nothing more, than when he wasn&amp;#39;t doing his dictatoring job, to throw up his feet and watch episodes of the Dick Van Dyke Show.&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;U.S. President Obama blamed the double-booking conflict on the Bush Administration.  He said that the solution was for everyone to work together under the auspices of centrally-bureaucratized government to find common ground.  &amp;quot;What folks need and want is for everyone to move beyond their differences and work together.  This calls for political leadership with vision.  Everyone can&amp;#39;t just avoid paying taxes.  They must paid their fair share!  I will not rest until some solution satisfying to everyone is found by me!&amp;quot; said Obama.&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;U.S. Vice President Joe Biden said that President Moore should just go to both conventions at the same time.  Asked if he was more of a DVD fancier or a Dick Van Dyke fan, Biden said he liked watching t.v. on Betamax.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Iranian leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said that President Moore should address the WCEDVDAS that had less Jews in it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard said she wished President Moore would cancel both speaking engagements and come over to her place that evening.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said that President Moore should toss a coin.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Pope Benedict XVI said President Moore should pray for guidance.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The minority leader of the U.S. House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, also expressed a desire that President Moore cancel both engagements and come over to her place that evening.&lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;President Moore, for his part, said he thought it was funny, at the time, that his secretary Miss Moneypenny confirmed with him twice that he agreed to make a speech to the WCEDVDAS at the specified date and time.  But he then forgot about it.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The conflict wasn&amp;#39;t noticed till it was pointed out that there were two advertising campaigns, costing over a billion dollars each, proclaiming President Moore&amp;#39;s scheduled appearance at the same time, but at different places.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For all members of both these organizations listening to a live speech by President Moore would be the greatest moments of their lives, and so many of them spent their life-savings to be present at the specified date and time before the conflict was discovered.&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;President Moore blamed the conflict on Miss Moneypenny and told the WCE Blog that he would spank his secretary when he arrived back at the WCE.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When asked what he would do about the conflict, President Moore said he was stumped because he really didn&amp;#39;t want to disappoint anyone.  He also expressed a wish that the conspiracy theory saying there were several Harry Moores in the WCE was true.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Members of the two organizations said that President Moore was a saint among men, and so open warfare between the two WCEDVDAS&amp;#39;s was probably going to be the only way to resolve the conflict.&lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;President Moore, who is a Wuxi China Expatdom Archduke, toured the SB&amp;amp;H Expatdom alongside his host Sophie, Duchess of Hohenberg, in a Gräf &amp;amp; Stift open sports car, with its top folded down.   Sometimes during the tour, several bombs of various explosive capabilities, from old-fashioned hand-held to atomic weapons, were directed toward the Gräf &amp;amp; Stift open sports car.  President Moore was able to ward off the many projectiles and bombs, directed his way, with graceful ease.  &amp;quot;You going to have a hard time throwing bombs at a man whose classmates in Kung Fu and Jujitsu School included our current Wuxi China Expatdom Royal Navy Commander Lloyd Bridges, Wuxi China Expatdom Royal Land Forces Commander General Colonel Sanders, Chuck Norris, Pierce Broslund, George S. Patton, Bruce Lee, Steve McQueen and Jackie Chen!&amp;quot; declared President Moore, who had already appeared to have forgotten the incident when asked about it.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Afterwards, WCEFAS President Harry Moore&amp;#39;s film talk about the Cinema and World War One, held at the Sarajevo Bosnia and Herzegovina Expatdom Colony Town Hall was received with much adulation  The ten million who attended the speech afterwards celebrated by forming the longest conga party line in European history, or at least since the Diet of Worms. &lt;div&gt;   &lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After the speech, the motorcade got lost on the way to the airport.  Making a left turn instead of a right turn, the motorcade drove right past Schiller&amp;#39;s delicatessen where a meeting of the Gavrilo Princip wing of the Quentin Tarantino faction of the Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society was just breaking up.  The driver, when realizing the mistake, popped the clutch.  Seeing President Moore in the stalled Gräf &amp;amp; Stift open sports car, all four hundred of the Principates pulled our their 9x17mm pistols and fired at Moore, but thankfully missed.  They did however mess the WCEFAS President&amp;#39;s hair causing the U.N. General Assembly to hold an emergency meeting to express its concern.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;President Moore was eventually able to make it to the airport to catch his flight to Washington D.C. where he is scheduled to attend the first screening of the film My American Cousin at Ford&amp;#39;s Theatre.  Worries have been raised about another assassination attempt on President Moore when he goes to the Ford Theater.  It was there in 1865 that John Wilkes Booth assassinated President Lincoln.  Many have expressed concern that Moore would attend the screening sponsored by the John Wilkes Booth Wing of the Quentin Tarantino Faction of the Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-1549422746986499835?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/1549422746986499835/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/02/bombs-thrown-and-guns-fired-at-wuxi.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/1549422746986499835'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/1549422746986499835'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/02/bombs-thrown-and-guns-fired-at-wuxi.html' title='Bombs thrown and Guns fired at Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society President&apos;s motorcade in Sarajevo'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323725627181770083.post-5043910667220361926</id><published>2012-02-15T05:45:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-02-15T05:45:40.953-08:00</updated><title type='text'>There are actual Mexicans in the Wuxi China Expatdom!</title><content type='html'>John Diefenbaker, Wuxi Expat English teacher, was surprised to learn that there were actual Mexicans living in the Wuxi China Expatdom.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When told so but a fellow English teacher who said he had lots of Mexpat friends in Wuxi, Diefenbaker asked what they did.  He was told that they did this and that.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;President of the Wuxi China Expatdom Actual Mexican Expats Association, Manuel Gonzalez, when hearing of Diefenbaker&amp;#39;s questions, was compelled to have a press conference at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion of the Gambay&amp;#39;s Pub in the 1912 Bar District.  Said  WCEAMEA Presidente Gonzalez &amp;quot;Si!

He said that his campaign would only take-place in the Expatdom's colonies. "I've no jurisdiction here in the Wuxi China Expatdom as regards what Expats want to watch at the cinema, but there'll be no more French &lt;br /&gt;movies allowed in the Colonies". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;              "Let me make it clear though", he said, "I've got nothing against the French as-such. They are probably good people. But they can't play cricket; their cars are ugly old clunkers; their food is inedible, and, as for their movies - it behooves me to call it 'cinema', 100% depravity!".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;              "Sir David Lean never resorted to cheap, disgusting screenplays. French movies are riddled with it. In the WCE's Colonies, I'm allowing a period of grace for Expats to hand-in any French dvds or videotapes. After that, there'll be no mercy!". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;              Harry Moore said that any film directed by Francois Truffaut will be at the top of his hate-list. "And", he continued, "the following so-called &lt;br /&gt;actors are in my sights: - Bridgitte Bardot, Gerard Depardieu, Yves St Laurent,&lt;br /&gt;and Alain Delon". "French movies on DVD will be boxed and shipped back to Paris".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;              Andis Kaulins, the English Teacher, expressed suprise at the ferocity of Harry Moore's anti-French wrath. "Whilst I agree in principle with the Minister of Colonies, I don't think that Maurice Chevalier is a corrupting influence on the youth of the Expatdom. Except that he couldn't sing properly".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;              "No, not much of a crooner", said Harry Moore, "I mean, what on earth&lt;br /&gt;does 'sank 'eavens' mean anyway?".&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-615071681319349849?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/615071681319349849/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/02/wuxi-china-expatdoms-minister-of.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/615071681319349849'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/615071681319349849'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/02/wuxi-china-expatdoms-minister-of.html' title='Wuxi China Expatdom&apos;s Minister Of Colonies Bans French Cinema Smut'/><author><name>Dirt  E.

 So fire hoses, it had to be!&amp;quot;  said Butmir.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When Moore&amp;#39;s plane finally landed and the Archduke was able to get off the plane, millions in the crowd fainted at the resplendence of his black locks of hair, his newly-grown curled-up mustache, and his sunny, optimistic smile. Moore made a short address to the crowd where he said he was reminded of the scene in one of The Naked Gun movies where the Leslie Nielson character spoke into a microphone and did a parody of the Renoir&amp;#39;s film&lt;i&gt; La Regle du Jeu.  &lt;/i&gt;&amp;quot;You must all be hear to see Wierd Al Yankovic and not little old me!&amp;quot; insisted the Archduke to the throng which responded with hundreds of millions of voices:  &amp;quot;Of course not!  We want you!  We want you!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After finishing his speech, Moore and his host &lt;font face="sans-serif"&gt;&lt;span style="line-height:18px"&gt;Sophie, Duchess of Hohenberg, boarded &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="line-height:18px"&gt;a Gräf &amp;amp;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Hayek could have scored ten touchdowns, but on two plays, that touched the hearts of professional football fans and mothers everywhere, Hayek, as he neared the goal line, lateraled the ball to his mother Wonder Woman allowing her to become the first female to score a touchdown in a professional football game.  &amp;quot;I was inspired to do this by my godfather Archduke Harry Moore and his mission to Paradise Island to impregnate all the women of child-bearing age there.  I asked myself, what I could do too, in such a selfless manner, to help womankind, and I thought what better way than to let my mother score a touchdown!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;

 &lt;p&gt;After Moore&amp;#39;s plane touched down, the Minister de-boarded onto the tarmac and walked toward a microphone placed thereon.  He announced to the multitudes, listening to the radio or watching on television, that he was not happy and triumphant but miserable. He made his mission, he told the listening millions, for a woman, and she did not even show up at the airport.  Stunning the awaiting multitudes into silence because no one had ever seen the always sunny, optimistic and virile Moore seem unhappy, Moore then asked the audience if they remembered the opening scene from Jean Renoir&amp;#39;s 1939 classic film &lt;i&gt;La Regle du Jeu&lt;/i&gt;.  A few, who did, explained Moore&amp;#39;s reference to the others and a great relief came over the millions at the Wuxi Airport.  The smarter ones in the press corp then began to laugh.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Moore then told the massive crowd that he wanted to thank the ladies of Paradise Island for treating him so well.  "I came to the Island in a business-like state of mind and was expecting the girls to be too, but the fine ladies who I had to impregnate, made the couplings romantic and emotionally satisfying.  More than just catering to my every passionate desire, they had lots of my favorite foods and practically every movie ever made in their DVD collection.  So between my duty calls, I was able to watch Doctor Zhivago on a forty meter wide screen while eating a steak cooked to perfection.  So boy!  I had a lot of fun!  It was a trip full of the most pleasant sensations!&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Asked how good-looking the girls were, Moore said that he always believed that the photo of the girls in Playboy magazine were airbrushed, and that girls really didn&amp;#39;t look like that.  "But on Paradise Island, none of the girls had blemishes and were all proportioned perfectly!  Heck, some were even been looking than Wonder Woman herself!" said the Minister.  &amp;quot;And to have such softness in one&amp;#39;s arm was like eating some delicious melt-in-your-mouth chocolate or breaking lots of bubble wrap by rolling on it!&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt;A huge one million vehicle motorcade, featuring every car every made in human history, all the new super tanks of the Wuxi China Expatdom Royal Land Force, and the ten amphibious Air Craft Carriers of the Wuxi China Expatdom Royal Navy then took Minister Moore from Shuo Feng to the WCE Monarchical Palace.  Overhead, a hundred planes from the Wuxi China Expatdom Royal Air Force flying in tight formation accompanied the land vehicle parade.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;At the Palace, his Majesty, the King of the Wuxi China Expatdom Gorzo the Mighty presented Minister Moore with ten medals of honor for the duty he had just done for the Wuxi China Expatdom, and recommended that he be inducted into the Wuxi China Expat Hall of Fame for an unprecedented third time.  "No Man!" declared his Majesty, "has done so much for all of mankind!  I am sure that I speak for Wuxi China Expatdomites when I say I really admire Minister Moore&amp;#39;s pluck and courage in agreeing to take on this difficult mission.  Lesser men would have been rendered too excited by the prospect of sleeping with all those beautiful girls, but Harry, and I call him that because I consider him my great friend, managed to keep his composure and sense of humor during this Herculean task we asked him to perform!&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt;Moore was then presented with a garland of flowers and declared the Wuxi Expat Man of the year  by the two co-chairwomen of the Wuxi China Expatdom Ladies Auxiliary and Voters League (WCELAVL):  her Majesty, the Queen of the Wuxi China Expatdom, Ayira: the Chosen One and the first lady of the Wuxi China Expatdom, Wonder Woman.  Speaking for both, Ayira, said that they would do everything they could to see to it that Minister Moore was presented with a Nobel Prize for Peace and Economics, a Pulitzer Prize, the highest honour an Australian could get in Australia, and a place on People&amp;#39;s Magazine&amp;#39;s list of most interesting people in 2012.  Wonder Woman added that it was going to be the greatest of honors to be the aunt  of children sired by Minister Moore.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;After the royal presentation ceremony, the massive motorcade took Minister Moore to Gambay&amp;#39;s Pub in the 1912 Bar District of Wuxi where a crowd of 75,000 bar patrons feted Moore for five hours with choruses of "For he&amp;#39;s a jolly good  fellow!" and "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang."  Then a ceremony took place where Minister Moore was also presented with an award for lifetime achievement by the President of the Pampers Corporation, Victor Mills, who said "Harry is the best thing to happen to the disposable diaper industry since the invention of disposable diapers!"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt;Afterwards, in the locker room of Gambay&amp;#39;s, Minister Moore received congratulatory calls from many world leaders.  &amp;quot;Merkel, Sarkozy, Cameron, some guy named Barry Obambi, my buddy the Pope, the leader-for-life of Uzwetyourbedistan, and another guy named Stephen Harper, whoever he is, phoned!&amp;quot; said Moore.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The leaders of Russia and Japan sent ambassadors to Moore requesting his fecund powers to help turn around their demographic decline.  &amp;quot;I respectfully declined and told them I will only add more Wuxi China Expats to the world!&amp;quot; said the Minister.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;But the most unprecedented honor for Minister Moore came from the National Football League and FIFA, the international governing body of soccer.  NFL Commissioner Rogel S Goodell gave Minister Moore the Vince Lombardi Trophy, normally awarded to the winning team in the Super Bowl.  Moments later, Moore received a phone call from FIFA President Seth Blater who awarded Minister Moore with the FIFA World Cup Trophy, normally awarded to the winner of the FIFA World Cup Tournament.  Sports Historians said it was unprecedented for a major sports organization to award its team championship trophy for individual achievement in a field of endeavor not related to their sport&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Harry Moore will only be spending a few days in the WCE before he puts on his Archduke hat for a visit to the Sarajevo Bosnia &amp;amp; Herzegovina  where he will confer WCE Colonial Status on the SB&amp;amp;H Expatdom before going on a Motorcade tour on the latest WCE colony.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;From the SB&amp;amp;H Expatdom, Archduke Moore will take off his royal hat, fly to Washington D.C.,  assume his role as the President of the Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society and give a film talk after the opening screening of the new film My American Cousin.&lt;/p&gt;

 I feel sorry for the Super Bowl Champions, whoever they may be!  I hope we don&amp;#39;t have to pretend that they can be competitive with us.  I understand that some of those guys make a career of playing American Football.  I hate to shatter their rice bowls!&amp;quot; said Rabbi Goldson.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asked if he wanted to know who won the Super Bowl, Rabbi Goldson said he didn&amp;#39;t.  &amp;quot;I want to keep the identity of our opponent a surprise till game time next Sunday&amp;quot; laughed Goldson who quickly put on his earphones so he could listen to a Marc Levin  and then a Econtalk Podcast.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-1944720342907912319?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/1944720342907912319/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/02/new-york-giants-to-meet-wuxi-red-guards.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/1944720342907912319'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/1944720342907912319'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/02/new-york-giants-to-meet-wuxi-red-guards.html' title='New York Giants to meet Wuxi Red Guards in Super Duper Bowl 2'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323725627181770083.post-4816689855190759308</id><published>2012-02-06T00:33:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-02-06T06:10:19.541-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Fifty Five Wuxi Expats hospitalized after Super Bowl Party</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="gmail_quote"&gt;Fifty Five Wuxi Expats attending a Monday Morning Super Bowl Party at the Chestnut Pub had to be sent to hospital.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Twenty Five of the Expats were hospitalized on account on food poisoning.

So says Joseph Robert, editor of the Wine Speculator, the world's foremost Wine magazine,  who told the WCE Blog that Wine connoisseurs the world over should forget about going to Bordeaux France, Burgundy France, Wurzburg Germany, Tuscany Italy and the Napa Valley in California.  "The top twenty Vineyards in the world are all  in the Wuxi China Expatdom!" insisted Robert.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;That the Wuxi China Expatdom should have so many outstanding vineyards is incredible, given that in the last year of the reign of the former King of Wuxi, the Ayatollah of Mordor, the Wuxi China Expatdom was rated as the worst producer of wine in the entire universe.  Lord Acton, the eminent Wuxi China Expatdom historian, told the WCE blog that at that time, the Ayatollah had placed all of the WCE's award-winning wine-makers in a dungeon producing scrap metal and kool-aid powder.  "More proof of the darkness that was the reign of the former King of Wuxi!" said Acton, who was visibly unable to control his divinely righteous indignation, after being forced to recall the dark times.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"But with their release after the coronation of King Gorzo the Mighty, the wine-makers, with encouragement from his Majesty, began to grow the finest grapes for wine-making in all the world on the rich succulent soils of the shores of Lake Taihu and of the slopes of Yangshan!" said Baron Burgundy Bordeaux Tuscany Napa-Smith, the chief viceroy of the Wuxi China Expatdom Wine Makers Association (WCEWMA)&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Baron waxed poetically, like he was talking about a young girl he was fervent for, as he rattled off the many fine wines grown and produced by the WCEWMA.  "There is  Chateau Meicun 2011: a full-bodied burgundy that teaches one the meaning of the word sublime.  Chongnan Crest Cabernet Sauvignon Zhongshan Road Reserve 2010  is easily the greatest Cabernet of all human history!  And of course, my personal favorite Difang du Lao Dianshilu Chateaujiu-de-Baba-Hui-Shan-Lu 2011 which is made by the brothers Du Maurier.  This red wine is a blend of 65 percent Grenache with 15 percent each of Chateau Meicun and Taihu Tuscany, plus a dash of Tsingtao, Crown Royal, Clairette and other varieties, all sourced from vines averaging over 100 years of age."&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Editor Robert said that the Wuxi China Expatdom, would continue to have the finest vineyards in the world if it continued to have its current decent political leadership and &lt;i&gt;laisez-faire&lt;/i&gt; economic policies. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-2182032243011895830?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/2182032243011895830/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/02/wuxi-china-expatdom-vineyards-produce.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/2182032243011895830'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/2182032243011895830'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/02/wuxi-china-expatdom-vineyards-produce.html' title='Wuxi China Expatdom Vineyards produce the World&apos;s Finest Wines'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323725627181770083.post-6292871362781942938</id><published>2012-02-04T19:38:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-02-05T08:22:35.529-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sarajevo'/><title type='text'>Sarajevo Bosnia and Herzegovina Expatdom becomes colony of the Wuxi China Expatdom</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;The Wuxi China Expatdom has it first European Colony.

Minister of Colonies Harry Moore, ever-eager to gather more raconteur-material, was granted an exclusive interview with the General.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;           The General-Colonel said that this new tank will soon be joined by &lt;br /&gt;a further 600,000 similar models, which will form the backbone of the WCE's massive military might. "My old buddy General George S. Patton contacted me", said the General. &lt;br /&gt;"He told me that when he was pulverizin' kraut tanks in the Bulge, his attention was caught by this example. After years of redesign and development, I give you the&lt;br /&gt;Super King Tomcat!! And look-out when this beast growls!".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;          The General told Harry Moore that the WCE's new armoured-fist is powered by no-less than four Westinghouse-Mercedes Nuclear Turbines, delivering around 285 million horsepower. "Armament?", boomed the General, "why, it's got a 788mm cannon just for starters! Range is unlimited!".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;          The triumphant entry was briefly marred by an accident. The Wuxi China Expatdom Midget Sumo Wrestling Champion Duston Short, trying to get a close-up photograph, was trammelled, yet he emerged unscathed and told concerned onlookers that he'd "enjoyed much it, very!".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[*Note:- the photographer of the above-image cannot be contacted.

 &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The WCE PM spokesman didn&amp;#39;t answer questions from the media after making the announcement..  When asked to give specific details of the conception, the WCE PM spokesman ordered fire hoses be let loose on the media members from the WCE Sexpat Gazette.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;News of Wonder Woman&amp;#39;s pregnancy resulted in massive celebrations throughout the Expatdom.   All three Harry Moore Memorial Squares in Wuxi were quickly packed with hundreds of millions of celebrants many of whom decided to dance like drunken Cossacks in a Conga Line.  In the Shanghai China Expatdom Colony, millions of Expats thronged the Bund and Nanjing Road to celebrate.   In the Expatdoms of South America, governments were forced to declare it &lt;i&gt;Carnivale&lt;/i&gt; time, as millions celebrated &lt;i&gt;Prime del Ministre Mango Magnificto&lt;/i&gt; getting &lt;i&gt;Mujer Maravilla embarazada!  &lt;/i&gt;But the biggest and most heart-felt celebrations took place on Wonder Woman&amp;#39;s native Paradise Island where she was a Amazon Princess before coming a super-heroine, confidante to Harry Moore, the first lady of the Wuxi China Expatdom and member of the Wuxi China Expatdom Justice League -- one hundred million Amazon princesses celebrated and begged for Harry Moore to come to their island and impregnate every one of them.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Wuxi China Expatdom Pubs also enjoyed brisk business after the announcement.  At Gambay&amp;#39;s Pub, one group toasted PM Mango for fourteen rounds.  Many then went onto the streets carrying signs saying &amp;quot;Atta Boy Mango!&amp;quot; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Eight Billion voices were soon heard chanting in unison &amp;quot;WCE!  WCE!  WCE!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Veteran observers of the Expatdom said the celebrations were nearly as huge as those that took place after the capture of the Ayatollah of Mordor -- former King of Wuxi.&lt;/div&gt;

Patton, Rocky Marciano, Alexander the Great, Eddie Futch, Teddy Atlas and Ray Arcel.  She has also hired some poets including WCE Poet Laureate Alfred Lord McClusky, William Wordsworth and TS Eliot who will serve as her corner men during press conferences.  &lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The evidence of Ayira&amp;#39;s determination to box again quickly became apparent to all media members attending the press conference where she announced the resumption of her boxing career:  Ayira delivered a left hook to a T-70 battle tank, beside her on the podium, sending it flying a thousand feet; and  then recited the following lyrics: &amp;quot;Rumble lie a butter fly!  Deadly like like typhus!  I am gonna beat and knock my opponents sense-lus!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;While she admitted that the lyric was nothing special, Ayira confidently boasted that the media men &amp;quot;ain&amp;#39;t heard nothing yet, and that she was going to give them lines and lines of witty rhymes that would fill notebooks from here to infinity, twice as easily as the roll of a dice!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asked by a CNN reporter why she only wanted to box women and half-men of Leftist and Progressive sentiments, Ayira said &amp;quot;I am powerful like an Iguana and I am going to kick the ass of who I wanna!  Besides, Bachmann and Palin: they be forces for good!  I only want to use my fists, on the people on my evil lists!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ayira ended the press conference by promising the media that 2012 would be a year of &amp;quot;sizzling sonnets, powerful punches, horrifying hooks, laid-out lamenting Leninists,  and K-O&amp;#39;d Keynesians!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-4407491416016071777?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/4407491416016071777/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/01/wuxi-china-expatdom-queen-ayira-to.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/4407491416016071777'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/4407491416016071777'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/01/wuxi-china-expatdom-queen-ayira-to.html' title='Wuxi China Expatdom Queen Ayira to resume Boxing Career'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323725627181770083.post-6177452124609749839</id><published>2012-01-30T03:59:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-30T04:42:45.623-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Harry Moore Speaks: "Wuxi China Expatdom's Eyes Look West"</title><content type='html'>President of the Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society and&lt;br /&gt;Minister for Colonies Harry Moore says that the WCE government is seeking to&lt;br /&gt;expand it's ever-growing colonial possessions.  Interviewed on the Expatdom's&lt;br /&gt;prime-time television programme "In Wuxi Tonight" by the anchorman&lt;br /&gt;Andis Kaulins (the English Teacher), Harry Moore outlined the bold new&lt;br /&gt;expansionary plans. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       "I've been commissioned", he said, "by Emperor Gorzo and the Parliament&lt;br /&gt;to travel to various Expatdoms in Siberia. There I am to compile a report&lt;br /&gt;on the feasibility of those regions being absorbed into our dominion".&lt;br /&gt;"I know very little of those distant regions. My brief is to gauge the mood&lt;br /&gt;of those disparate Expats - perhaps the WCE might create one Expat colony there".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       Genial host Andis Kaulins asked Harry Moore if he had any anxieties &lt;br /&gt;about travelling deep into a sometimes-harsh, and alien region. "There are&lt;br /&gt;wolves there", Andis Kaulins said, "and numerous other dangers, such as&lt;br /&gt;naked mensheviks, and, possibly Boris Yeltsin too?".   Harry Moore replied that&lt;br /&gt;many people have stereotypical perceptions of Siberia. "It's not a place out of some movie, Andis. I will be going unarmed. Such things don't worry me in the least, And besides, the Expatdom doesn't practice gunboat diplomacy, so our intentions are entirely peaceful".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       After a moment's pause, Harry Moore said "now you mention them, well actually&lt;br /&gt;I am scared of wolves!".  "I'd hoped", he went on, "that you, Andis, and your namesake of the WCE Rifle Association might be able to accompany me, but, naturally I understand that you both have heavy commitments here, in the Expatdom".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       Harry Moore told Andis Kaulins that he'd set-off on the first leg of the journey as soon as possible. "Yes", he explained, "I must get myself to Omsk or Tomsk&lt;br /&gt;quickly. The WCE government believes that, apart from millions of prospective&lt;br /&gt;Expat colonial citizens, there are believed to be substantial natural resources there. Emperor Gorzo told me that we must move fast because those Europeans are having some financial woes right now, and therefore we mustn't shilly-shally about."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-6177452124609749839?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/6177452124609749839/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/01/harry-moore-speaks-wuxi-china-expatdoms.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/6177452124609749839'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/6177452124609749839'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/01/harry-moore-speaks-wuxi-china-expatdoms.html' title='Harry Moore Speaks: &quot;Wuxi China Expatdom&apos;s Eyes Look West&quot;'/><author><name>Dirt  E.

 secondly, it was owning an autographed copy of the Poolside Harry Moore; then, it was having GPS in one&amp;#39;s bar girl; but now the status symbol of the Wuxi Expat is to have lots and lots of helper monkeys.  &lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;When it was revealed that Her Majesty Queen of the Wuxi China Expatdom, Ayira:  the Chosen One, had a helper monkey fetch balls during her tennis matches, a trend was set and soon all of the WCE High Society had to have one helper monkey and then more.  A helper monkey arms race developed and Wuxi China Expats, bored of showing off their Chinese-speaking skills, began to speak of how many helper monkeys they had.  One Wuxi China Pub Owner, Frank Minkleman, had a hundred helper monkeys working on his yacht in Lake Taihu.  NIels Bohr, at his lavish wedding, had a thousand helper monkeys serving guests and performing the dragon dance.  Wuxi Sexpats began to boast of having helper monkey sex slaves.&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;Wuxi Expat English Teachers, not being able to afford helper monkeys, developed all manner of strategems to show off their status.  Duston Short, English Teacher Extraodinaire, until he was found out, had his triplet brothers follow him around in monkey costumes.  Many other English teachers began hiring students to dress up as helper monkeys and also follow them around.&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;German Wuxi Expat Engineers, in cooperation with the Japanese, designed and built robot helper monkeys but couldn&amp;#39;t find a solution to the battery charging problem and as well, weren&amp;#39;t able to make the robot monkeys anatomically correct enough for Wuxi Sexpats.&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;Several Wuxi Expats then wanted to marry their helper monkeys, but were not granted licenses by the Wuxi China Expatdom Bureau of Marriage Licensing.  One Expat, Hans Klingerer, got a helper monkey to marry his long underwear; but the marriage was later declared void when it was discovered the long underwear was already married to Klingerer.&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;So intense has the demand for helper monkeys been in the Wuxi China Expatdom, that it has been reported that some Wuxi Expats have traded their Ipads and Iphones for helper monkeys.  One helper monkey is now worth 2 Ipads on the WCE black market.&lt;/div&gt;

 &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;The Pub Owner -- Patron relationship isn&amp;#39;t like prostitution where a service is exchanged for money.  A person going to the pub expects to be able to have an emotional relationship with the people therein, whether they be the other customers, the staff, or above all, the guy or gal who runs or owns the place!  And it is not a case of wham-bam-see-you-later-or-never when one goes to the pub; one expects to have one&amp;#39;s existence acknowledged!  Being in the business for thirty years as I have been, I have learned what it is that patrons want.   Of course, we now live in an age in history where males need to have their physical existences acknowledged in order to enhance their self-esteem, so &lt;i&gt;ergo&lt;/i&gt; I practically molest them when they come into the pub and even more when they buy drinks or bring in their friends and associates!  Not that I mind, I have always had inclinations that way since I grew up on a sheep farm with only sheep, dingos, wallabees and kangaroos to keep me company!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asked how he treated his female patrons, Droop said he liked to chat them up and tell them the things he was going to do to them on their wedding night.  &amp;quot;You should see the look in those Sheila&amp;#39;s eyes when I talk to them in details so intimate you&amp;#39;d think I really was their husband!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Droop&amp;#39;s patrons, especially the lonelier ones, told the WCE Blog that they found Droop&amp;#39;s advances to be shocking and yet, strangely intriguing.  Duston Short, the Wuxi China Expatdom Midget Sumo Wrestling Champion and an Eastern Conference Champion, says his favorite time to be in the Chestnut is in Summer when Droop wears short shorts and encourages the others to do so as well.  &amp;quot;As a craver of intimicacy, you don&amp;#39;t know how much it raises my self-esteem to have someone act like I am attractive in shorts!&amp;quot;

said Bellamy, who says he spends his time, whether on the job or in leisure, promoting the sublime beauty of his body to other Expats and locals alike.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Bellamy, who teaches English at a local primary school, says he uses his body&amp;#39;s beauty and sublimeness to teach vocabulary to his students.  &amp;quot;I have used the sublimity of my body to enhance their vocabulary.  I can now hear them, when they are on the playground, use the words &amp;quot;sublime, splendorous, wondrous, pleasurable, soft, delicate, tight, fondle, grope, caress, delightful, texture, natural, divine, comely, Harry Moore, iron-like, extensive, massive, shiny, resplendent, tone, ample, endowment and dueling scar&amp;quot; among others.  For their English speaking competition, many of my students choose to talk about the difference between the beauty and sublime using photos of my body parts!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Bellamy tells the WCE Blog that he spends his advocacy time canvassing the Wuxi China Expat Hall of Fame director Kennesaw &amp;quot;Hui Shan&amp;quot; Landis to enshrine him or, at least, his wonderful body therein.  &amp;quot;I believe that four 8888m tall statues depicting my body, at each corner of the WCEHoF grounds would warm the spirits of everyone in the Wuxi China Expatdom!  Kennesaw doesn&amp;#39;t agree yet, but I am softening him with my 24 hour round-the-clock email and SMS campaign!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;On his own initiative, though, Bellamy has produced one million 4 foot by 3 foot posters featuring images of his body and distributed them where ever he goes in the WCE.  &amp;quot;Even if the posters are use to wrap fish or placed at the bottom of bird cages, I know that that everyday life of the average person is being made more beautiful and sublime!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Bellamy says he also hopes to team up with Harry Moore and produce a book called &lt;i&gt;The Sublime Duo of Harry Moore &amp;amp; Bob Bellamy Poolside&lt;/i&gt;.  &amp;quot;So far, His Sublimeness Moore has no returned any of my phone calls and emails!&amp;quot; said Bellamy, the regret obvious from the emotional cracking of his voice.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Bellamy&amp;#39;s colleagues say they find his advocacy efforts something to behold, but misdirected.  Guy Batterson, who also teaches with Bellamy at a Wuxi primary school, says that Bellamy has scared many of his Chinese colleagues by his advocacy.  &amp;quot;A teacher can&amp;#39;t enter the office without Bob showing them a joint and a hidden crevice in his body!&amp;quot; said Batterson who wished to be unnamed for this news story.  &amp;quot;Still, he pursues the advocacy for the beauty of his body with a single-mindedness that I wish I could apply to my girlfriend!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;It was cold in Beixin for the four days I was there.  Taking my daily constitutional, I found my hands were cold and that for the first time this winter, I felt a need to wear gloves.  I went to, what I assumed was a recently-opened supermarket, and looked for the glove aisle.  There, I saw a pair of brown gloves with a silver pattern that looked adequate for my purposes.  Looking at the signs, I thought they would set me back 38 rmb, but I asked a nearby clerk and she told me they were 15, or at least, that was I understood!&amp;quot;

said McNulty. &lt;div&gt;  &lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;McNulty was quick to not take credit for the operations&amp;#39;s success.  &amp;quot;I wouldn&amp;#39;t have been able to catch and prosecute the English Teachers mangling the Queen&amp;#39;s and President&amp;#39;s English without the diligent efforts of the million man task force that spared no amount of personal comfort in hiding out where English teachers congregate!  I also want to thank Wuxi China Expatdom Royal Navy Admiral Lloyd Bridges for the use of his aircraft carriers and the bombardment he put on the bad grammar of English Teachers living in Long Tuo Zhu Park; Wuxi China Expatdom Royal Air Force Marshall Gregory Peck for the 72 hours of non-stop bombardment of the Norway International English School in the Wuxi New District; Wuxi China Expatdom Royal Land Force Commander General Colonel Harlan Sanders for the artillery and mortar barrage on the two English Fungus locations in the Nanchang District; my acting teacher Stella Adler who taught me how to make my appearances before criminal punks heartfelt and true; my boxing trainer Angelo Dundee who taught me to control my savage tendencies; Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society President  and WCE Minister of Colonies and best-selling author and international-sex-symbol-raconteur Harry Moore for being my role-model; and Pope Benedict XVI for saving my soul!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asked if his methods might be over-the-top in their roughness, McNulty said that extremism in the defense of a good cause was not as vicious as mamby-pamby post-1960s governmental types would have people believe.  &amp;quot;Some English Teachers get a little bruised because they aren&amp;#39;t so professional -- this is nothing!  These English Teachers have the slackest of lives compared to what the locals have to put up with!&amp;quot; said McNulty.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asked for numbers of English Teachers punished as well as of the amounts of punishment dealt, McNulty was quite exact.  &amp;quot;Six English Teachers are missing but we presume that they did &amp;quot;a runner.&amp;quot;  45,266 English teachers are in hospital with broken bones or grammar books lodged deeply in their foreheads.  Three thousand English Teachers are serving life sentences for repeated errors of tense.  Twenty five thousand English Teachers have had their dangling participles severed.  Another twenty five thousand English Teachers are under house arrest for bad pronoun reference.  The other 1,728 teachers have had their bar tab privileges revoked!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;McNulty added that Operation Hephaestion would continue indefinitely into the future.  Asked if this was a case of &amp;quot;It ain&amp;#39;t broke, don&amp;#39;t fix it!&amp;quot; by a reporter, McNulty growled, terrifying all  the reporters.  Tension in the Walter Bagehot Press Center rose to a fever-pitch as McNulty asked the reporter to repeat his question.  The reporter, on the second try, asked if the continuance of Operation Hephaestion was a case of &amp;quot;if it isn&amp;#39;t broken, don&amp;#39;t fix it! making McNulty growl all the more.  Reporters fainted before and as McNulty said it was a case of don&amp;#39;t stop a good thing happening.  It was only when McNulty curled his lips into a smile that reporters were able to breathe easily and laugh nervously.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;Goring went to the pub to watch the Penguins play the St. Louis Blues on the big screen television.  After watching his team defeat the Blues 3-2, Goring briefly raised his fist in the air and took a long sip of his beer.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Said Goring:  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;Putting down my beer, I noticed this group of strange looking barefoot people, some of them with no teeth, others with with contorted faces, staring at me.  One of them, who looked like he was the leader of the group, asked if I was a Penguins fans.  Saying I was, the leader laughed and the rest of his group started to laugh as well.  &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asking them what was so funny, they told me that they were fans of the Toronto Maple Leafs.  Thinking that they were joshing me, I told them that I should be the one that was laughing.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The leader looked at me quizzically and asked me what I meant.  &amp;quot;It behooves me to mention that your team hasn&amp;#39;t won the Cup since &amp;#39;67.  My Pens just won the Cup in &amp;#39;09!&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;Is that so? How about we wait and see who wins the game on January 31st!  Ha ha!&amp;quot; he said to me, thinking he had scored a rhetorical triumph!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;The Stanley Cup ain&amp;#39;t on the line!&amp;quot; I told him.  &amp;quot;I don&amp;#39;t expect you guys are going to be in the final this year, let alone the playoffs!  Ha ha ha!&amp;quot; I added and I then saw his brows furrow.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;He told me that I had a pretty mouth, and he got his followers to agree that I had a very pretty mouth.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The next thing I know, he grabbed me by the ear and ordered me to squeal as a Piggie.  A bunch of Vancouver Canuck and Ottawa Senator fans then joined the Leaf fans and demanded that I get on the floor on all fours with my pants down.  I pleaded with the bartender for help until I saw him pull out a &amp;quot;closed&amp;quot; sign and lock the entrance to the pub.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I thought I was done for until the locked entrance to the pub suddenly slammed opened, and who should appear, but Wuxi China Expatdom acting Chief Inspector Officer McNulty!  Wearing leather chaps and a leather vest with a sheriff&amp;#39;s badge, he shot arrows at the Senator, Leaf, and Canuck fans, pinning all of them to the walls of the pub.   He told us that he had been at the nearby Bondage Bar and said he couldn&amp;#39;t help but overhear someone say &amp;quot;squeal &lt;i&gt;as a&lt;/i&gt; piggie!&amp;quot;   &amp;quot;You bunch of dumb hick English Teacher punks!&amp;quot; screamed McNulty, &amp;quot;You should have said &amp;quot;squeal&lt;i&gt; like&lt;/i&gt; a piggie!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;As I snuck out of the pub, I heard agonized screaming and moans as McNulty gave the Hockey Fans and English Teachers a heaping portion of his deluxe personal luxury brand of divinely-inspired, paradigm-shifting, grammatically-correct and syntactically-true justice. &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I then thought to myself that I could have easily been the one moaning!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

       No party-affliations are permitted, however, some candidates,&lt;br /&gt;unfettered by apparat-chics, are clearly unable to divorce themselves&lt;br /&gt;from deep-seated Realpolitik sound-byte ideologies.&lt;br /&gt;Candidate Frank "Pyjama Pants" Prostrami, for instance, is a&lt;br /&gt;rusted-on Harpo-Marxist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

He is buying us lunch!&amp;quot; comments after I bought them lunch!  Call me a conservative reactionary, a tea-party member, a gun nut, or a hawk on military matters, but don&amp;#39;t call me a cheapskate!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For his part, the English teaching Andis Kaulins said that while his cheapskate reputation was well-earned, he was generous in non-monetary ways like with his punditry in his AKIC blog and staying away from pubs.  &amp;quot;I live and let live!  I give people the freedom of not associating with me!&amp;quot; insisted the Wuxi China Expatdom&amp;#39;s original Andis Kaulins.  He then said he had became disconcerted by Spanish Expats walking up to him and saying &amp;quot;Hey Senor Boom Boom!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asked about their relationship, the two people named Andis Kaulins said that they were always cordial to each other.  Said El Presidente :&amp;quot;To be honest, I don&amp;#39;t see the English teaching Andis Kaulins all that much!  He works and goes home to his family, and so there no chance of meeting him in a pub!  But I do see why other Expats confuse us.  We look alike and both have sensible views.  But I do have much more money than the English teacher and I can indulge in my pursuit of guns rights for all!  English teacher Andis Kaulins said, &amp;quot;El Presidente is an impressive figure of a man!  He is the Andis Kaulins I always wanted to be!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The announcement of two Andis Kaulins Expats was greeted with shocked reactions from some Wuxi Expats, as well as claims from other Expats that they suspected all along that there were two people named Andis Kaulins living in the Wuxi China Expatdom.  Said Wuxi Expat English teacher Duston Short:  &amp;quot;Now I know why the El Presidente didn&amp;#39;t shoot me as soon as he meet me.  The other Andis Kaulins had labelled me human garbage after having seen my work ethic, so I was surprised when he was polite to me after I left the English School the other guy was working at.&amp;quot;  Owner of the Chestnut Pub Wally Droop said he was shocked to see what he thought was the English teacher Andis Kaulins buying a round of drinks in his pub. &amp;quot;It was the El Presidente being so generous which explained everything!  I thought the world had fallen on its head!&amp;quot; said Droop.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-3098829432751475100?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/3098829432751475100/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/01/there-are-two-persons-named-andis.html#comment-form' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/3098829432751475100'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/3098829432751475100'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/01/there-are-two-persons-named-andis.html' title='There are two persons named Andis Kaulins living in the Wuxi China Expatdom'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323725627181770083.post-9065679044603861289</id><published>2012-01-17T07:18:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-17T07:18:22.672-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Wuxi Expat born in the year of the Dragon resents having to wear red in the Chinese New Year</title><content type='html'>Nigel Blair, a Wuxi Expat born in 1964, doesn&amp;#39;t like the fact that he has to wear red in the upcoming Chinese New Year.  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Blair was told of the fact by his wife who is a local girl.  &amp;quot;It is the tradition, I have been told, for everyone to wear red during their animal year of birth.  So being a Dragon, I got to wear red after January 22nd!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asked why he saw this as some sort of imposition, Blair told the WCE Blog that he hated to wear clothes, was a member in good standing of the Wuxi Naturist Party, and that Groucho Marx was right in seeing clothes-wearing as a sort of bourgeois conceit.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asked if he could adopt some wearing-of-red strategies that could still see him &lt;i&gt;au naturel &lt;/i&gt;while still wearing red (红色), Blair said that his wife &amp;quot;wasn&amp;#39;t going to go for it!&amp;quot;  Added Blair: &amp;quot;I asked her if I could wear a red hat, tie red strings around my body parts, wear red bows in my hair or have the tattoo artist make my Harry Moore Dragon tattoo more reddish but my wife is insistent!

 &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Lyndon had taken part in a commercial for an English Training Center he was working for.  The day of the commercial shot, Lyndon came to school with messy hair and bloodshot eyes.  Saying he hadn&amp;#39;t been informed of the recording, Lyndon said he would have turned out properly otherwise.  As it was, he was embarrassed by his appearance and vowed to never watch the commercial.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The commercial had been shown for a few days in Wuxi, when Lyndon went to the pub in the 1912 Bar District.  The other Expats, at the bar, had seen the commercial and made jokes about Lyndon&amp;#39;s messy hair and bloodshot eyes.  Lyndon told the WCE blog that he expected this and thought that he would have to stand the ribbing and kidding for a few days.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Said Lyndon: &amp;quot;Our mob was its friendly old self.  Everyone was insulting everyone else, but it was all in good fun and we knew that no one really meant it!  But then the mob took on a different frame of mind.  The ribbing became serious.  One person said I had embarrassed myself.  Another then said I had embarrassed all Expats in the eyes of the locals.  The next thing I knew, someone pulled out a noose, and I was forced to run away from the clutches of arms trying to hold me down so as to put the noose around my neck.&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Lyndon fled the pub with the mob on his tail.  He was fortunate that just as his stamina was flagging and the mob was catching up to him, Wuxi China Expatdom Police Officer McNulty came on the scene.  Said Lyndon &amp;quot;He saved my life!  When the mob saw McNulty they fled, and I knew that as long as McNulty was around, I had no need to worry about further retribution!  I thanked McNulty and said to him, &amp;quot;You save my life!&amp;quot;  McNulty then said, &amp;quot;That should be You &lt;i&gt;saved &lt;/i&gt;my life &lt;i&gt;punk&lt;/i&gt;! and he dealt me his eccentric brand of divinely sanctioned rough house full contact body slam justice!  Going to the doctor later, they told me that the edition of Fowler&amp;#39;s English Usage will be permanently embedded in my forehead for a while, but it is a small price to pay for having McNulty save my life.  Usually, he looks at me contemptuously!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;

and WCERN Admiral Lloyd Bridges has told me that if need be, we can use his aircraft carriers and that the 200m cannons of his battleships can easily rain down fire on any English teachers where ever they may be in the Expatdom!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;McNulty said that Operation Hephaestion&amp;#39;s basic philosophy was to be harshly unforgiving of English teachers making grammar mistakes.  &amp;quot;Teachers if they are lucky, will get sixty days in solitary confinement if they are caught dangling a participle or misplacing a modifier, two years of hard labour if they make errors of tense, and four years of very hard labor if they make vocabulary usage errors.  And when I say &amp;quot;if&amp;quot; they are lucky, I mean that is what they will get if they are not caught by me.  If I catch them misplacing modifiers and mixing up the three conditionals, I will personally deal them my eccentric brand of divine, retributive, paradigm-shifting, uncongenial justice!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Evidence of McNulty&amp;#39;s seriousness could be seen in and around Dangle&amp;#39;s Participle Pub where many moaning and beaten English Teachers were sprawled on the floor and sidewalk, floating in the nearby canal, and strewn on nearby roofs and trees.  &amp;quot;This bunch, once they recover, will be reviewing their Funk &amp;amp;

Shocked, to learn that some of the residents were watching the most god awful movies that could be bought at Wuxi DVD shops.  These people just have no taste!   And they would then pass on the DVDs onto to other Venice Gardens residents."&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;McNulty showed some of the DVDs, which he confiscated, to the Wuxi China Expatdom Blogspot staff.  Among the thousands of DVDs were grade "b" science fiction, slasher movies and sex comedies.  "It would have broken Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society President's Harry Moore's heart to see the tripe that these people were watching, I thought to myself." said McNulty.  "So, I dealt these Venice Gardeners -- it behooves me to call them Wuxi Expats -- my eccentric brand of paradigm-shifting justice.  But I gave them a choice this time, unlike the other times where the guilty had no choice.  I said I could either leave them unable to watch movies, unable to use the bathroom standing up, or forever unable to eat solid foods...   Strange how so many residents of Venice Gardens value their bowel movements --a thing I will remember when I make my next visit to the Chestnut Pub!"&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;His most honorableness, President and Minister Moore, praised McNulty's methods in dealing with the Venice Gardeners.

 Friedman can also run 100 meters in eight seconds and bench-press Micheal Moore and the Titanic!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The news of the Royal Triplets fast growth and maturity enraptured and thrilled many a Wuxi Expat.  Blogger and English Teacher Andis Kaulins said he welcomed the news of the Triplets&amp;#39; rapid growth saying it would give him plenty of things to write about in his blog about the Wuxi China Expatdom.  &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Prominent Wuxi Expats see the Triplets having a great future.  Harry Moore, Hayek&amp;#39;s godfather and a best-selling author, said he looked forward to taking Hayek under his wing and grooming him to be his successor as President of the Wuxi China Expatdom Film Appreciation Society and even as the WCE Minister of Colonies.  &amp;quot;I have so much on the table.  I have to supervise colonies in Asia and South America, and probably the rest of the world after that.  I have to be on top of the Cinema, past and present.  And I think Hayek is the boy who can help me.  He has got piercing dark eyes, glistening dark locks of hair, and a sunny disposition.  He reminds me of when I was young.  And I am so impressed by his knowledge of the films of David Lean!&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323725627181770083-6789461618128902594?l=wuxiexpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/feeds/6789461618128902594/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/01/wuxi-china-expatdom-royal-triplets-are.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/6789461618128902594'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323725627181770083/posts/default/6789461618128902594'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wuxiexpat.blogspot.com/2012/01/wuxi-china-expatdom-royal-triplets-are.html' title='Wuxi China Expatdom Royal Triplets Are Already Full Grown!'/><author><name>Andis Kaulins</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10726482489913497129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P_ngoKLkkUY/Ta1mffY72vI/AAAAAAAAOi4/OV5tTM5B4Do/s220/Blogger%2Bprofile.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
