I got 70 hits on Friday (!!!). People either love a controversy or love for me to admit that I'm wrong, ha ha.

Yesterday, my friends John and Helen got married. It was a Chinese banquet style reception so we had chopsticks and tea cups for the place settnig. So while we were waiting for the food, Harrison tells me he can flip over his cup using the chopsticks. But he totally cheated and pushed the cup against stuff with the chopsticks to flip it over. So I said, ok, why don't you pick up that 2 liter bottle with the chopsticks? This is yet another one of those situations where I try to one up Harrison by challenging the ridiculous and he tries to one up me by actually attempting it. Anyways, I was surprised he was actually able to lift the bottle off the table. The next thing I know, the bottle came loose and hits that family style turntable (I forget what it's called) with a loud crash and everyone at the reception went silent and looked right at us. Actually, rather, they all looked at me like I was the one who did it! And no one believed me when I said it wasn't me!

Anyways, since it was a Chinese banquet, that means the heads of all the animals we were eating were on the platter too. So I decided to make a totem pole with a chopstick and the heads of all the animals. Unfortunately they took the duck away before I got the idea, but the table next to us gave me their chicken head so I made a totem pole of 2 chicken heads and a lobster head. I knew I was taking a risk by doing that, but everyone seemed to enjoy it. What do you expect when you serve a head to a white guy? It's probably stunts like these why people didn't believe me about the 2 liter bottle incident.
