Yet another reason to move to New York (or at least visit during Project Runway season).

Stacey clued me in to the Daily Chuck today and I am officially obsessed with this dog. Completely and utterly obsessed.
NZ Dollars. Cute.
It’s interesting to me that almost all former British colonies (U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong) use the “dollar” as currency and not the pound. Does anyone know why?
Not so PC in NZ…

Derek and Paul came back from New Zealand today (I had to come back early for Keith & Jordan’s wedding this past weekend). When asked how the rest of their time was Derek responded with the perfect Kiwi phrase, “Sweet as!”
That trip, especially being with the two of them, was the most incredible trip ever. Welcome home fellas!

This is just absolutely sick and inhumane. The lame attempt at the spokesperson from the Chinese embassy in London to justify it as a “cultural tradition” is pathetic. Eat the fish, fine. But keeping it alive while you fry it and then eat it? Come on.
A spokesman at the Chinese embassy responded: “I don’t think it is fair to accuse other cultures of having certain negative habits and traditions.
“We have our traditions, as the Spanish have bullfighting, and you, until recently, had foxhunting. We did not criticise you or the Spanish for this. Tiger bones for traditional medicine are now banned, to the suffering of the Chinese industry.”
