truth

Did you ever notice that when Balki and Larry did the dance of joy, the words to the supplementary song are "die die die die diedie die diediedie"? That's not joyful at all. It's hard to believe that this detail escaped me for so many years before Perfect Strangers was released on DVD. I think I had perceived it as "da da da da dada da dadada" before then, which is why I'm only now bringing it up. This kinda fucks up my universe, but I guess that's the type of unadulterated truth you risk subjecting yourself to in exchange for enjoying digitally remastered audio.

We just got more domestic help in the house. She's not the greatest cook. Which is just as well, I suppose, because she only cooks enough food for about two people anyway. And even if we got around those problems, there's still the one of her being Chinese, and if you didn't already know, Chinese people eat some crazy crap. It's completely retarded, and by "retarded" I mean "Down syndromed," NOT that she "can do ANYTHING." Sue, if you're reading this, please move back into the house.

is this newface just a cook? if so, do you call her Cook? i think you should blog more about your rich person world -- it interests me.

I agree. I want more stories of maids, butlers, and drivers. Does someone clean your taint for you in the morning? Is this cook illegal? If not, how much are you paying her, and could I come to be your cook? I kind of know how to cook Korean.

is she Second Wife? I just read the chapter about this in The Joy Luck Club. If she is indeed Second Wife (AKA concubine whoreslut #1) and she gives you a necklace of pearls, stomp on it to make sure it's not glass. Second Wife is very tricky. Attack from all directions of the wind!
