You got questions, I got answers...

If you ever have a question for me, just add it to the comments at the bottom of the posting or fire me off an email and I will gladly answer it.

My Uncle asked me some questions the other day and I realized I should have answered them before so I thought I might as well answer them here in case you might have the same questions:

1. The 'Kimchi' in Kimchi Express is referring to Korea's national dish. Kimchi is served with pretty well every meal I have ever had at a Korean restaurant and tonight I actually had two different kinds of kimchi (one was the usual cabbage and the other was cucumber). Basically kimchi is a sort of pickled vegetable that is spiced up with a hot red pepper sauce. More on kimchi? Click here. And if you were wondering the 'Express' is simply to make it sound like a newspaper. Korean Expresss was too boring....

2. The significance of the title 'Soon to be a Millionaire' is that I am now a multi-millionaire. You can all refer to me as 'Sir' now, thank you very much! Kidding aside, the post was made just before my first paycheck which came in Korean Won (their currency; sounds like 'on' with a 'w' in front) and a million won equals about $900 Canadian. That means that I am making millions but unfortunately I realized that I am spending millions too!

Well, since no summer can go by without me bashing the Riders in your presence, this will have to do. I will admit that the Esks aren't exactly up to standards this year but the last time I checked, they beat the Saskatchewan Roughriders. What does that say about the Riders? It says they suck.

Oh Brad...just today I had breakfast in a restaurant in Seoul that had tons of Roughrider paraphanelia on the walls. Not surprisingly they had nothing to represent the Edmonton Eskimos.

What does this tell me?
A: Even Koreans have woken up to the fact that the Roughies are the single greatest sports team in the world. They are also smart enough to realize that they should praise them.
B: Edmonton Eskimos are not even worth the time of day and definately not the time it would take to hang up a souvenir spoon or something of that sort.
