No Freeo Stuffo for you......O

More greeeeat news finds abounds!

First up! An owner if a A/C service company has put up the following billboard by his office:

"Metro Council. Welcome to America. We speak English here. Pass the bill. Immigrants. No habla ingles? No freeo stuffo from el governmento. Comprende por favor?"

I'm not making this up! Go HERE to read it.

Second up! There is guy with an unforgettable name from Vietnam. He's basically the 50 cent of Hanoi. His name is (translated and i'm not making this up either) FINED 6500 Dollars (well technically BOT as that's the currency). Vietnam had a 2 child policy (modeled after China's 1 child policy) and this son was the FIFTH child so the government fined him 6500 bot as punishment. So the dad was pissed off so he named the son that! Can you imagine the hell that kid must've gone through? FINED 6500 BOT it's dinner time. Hey FINED 6500 BOT you want to watch the game? He actually had to endure this name for 19 years despite repeated pleas to his father (and even the government asked on his behalf) but the dad wouldn't budge. 6500 Bot is roughly about 50 cents.

Third up! Six Flags FEAR FACTOR style!

The Disney run last weekend was very fun. It was the most themed run i've ever been in (it ran through both of the parks). But Good GOD! it was the most disorganized race i'd ever been in. NONE of the Disney staff had a clue what was going on, the parking lot where the race started was virtually impossible to get into and confusing to navigate once you did get into it. And the trail was so narrow you couldn't even run half the time (which in itself wasn't a bad thing ha ha) due to all of the people getting bottlenecked.

b!
