As promised (threatened) a follow-up on my first visit at my parents-in-law the summer 2007. I know safety is not a big issue in China, but is there any reason why seatbelts are impossible to use it when they are finally present? The back of the bus seats in front of ours. Picture taken from our bus trip from […]

Posted in China, China trip July 2007 on Jan 15th, 2008
I pulled my self together and made a new category containing everything I wrote on our trip to China (July 2007). You can find all entries in the sidebar named China trip July 2007 (the first entry can be found here if you want to read it in the right order).
Anyone know what happened to The 88s? Looks like some Russians hackers took over his site.
Last old/new pictures from our vacation
Posted in China on Dec 18th, 2007
Not sure how it happened, but seems that I finally pulled myself up by the hair and sorted and uploaded the last pictures from our vacation in China. Don’t have much energy to make captions, and not sure I ever will, but guess I will make a follow-up about some of the stories behind the […]
Last Friday C went shopping with her friend. The day before, she asked me to prepare dinner which I gladly do. I rarely have a chance to keep my cooking skills up since “Danish dishes are too expensive, too fattening and has too much meat” (Quote my wife). So normally the missus cooks, while I help […]
A friend who know I’m married to a Chinese sent this to me the list below to me. It’s actually pretty funny and there are a few words of real wisdow among them. CHINESE PROVERBS *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Virginity like bubble, one prick, all gone. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Man who run in front of car get tired. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Man who […]

Sometimes you just wonder how low China/KH are ready to go by copying stuff so they wont have to think themselves. And then sometimes you get a sudden clue. I know I shouldn’t be surprised, but sometimes I still do. The missus just watched a Chinese movie called “Out of the Dark” by the godly […]
Answer: When the Chinese women starting 3 pair of pants. Rrrr. Sexy….. Actually this is the first year my wife hasn’t done that. Normally she would be wrapped like a early freaking Christmas gift this time of year. Somehow she bought my father’s theory that if you start; you can’t do with out the extra […]
[poll=2] From this years CCP meeting. Its allright, take a nap. You’ve had a good run.
Fell over this article (in Danish). It describes how a recent survey by Reporters Without Borders (RWB) shows that 64 bloggers round the world are imprisoned for blogging unwanted stuff about their country/government. According to RWB, 50 of these are (surprisingly?) located Chinese prisons. China is a huge population which may explain why China achieves a massive number […]
…take of your shoes and make yourself comfortable. This is my new domain. The clever reader may have found out that nothing has changed except the URL which now lacks a – in www.joe-cool.dk. The whole homepage has been ported as an attempt to get rid of the illogical ban that was given to me […]
Get it before your neighbour. Hopefully I get a chance to play around and install it today.
Things you don’t want to know part II I accidentally asked C what the nature medicine was made of that she brought home from Dr. Feel Good back in China. She brought home 2 bags of powdery foul brown stuff that she keeps in the freezer when not used. Can’t make out what it is […]
One thing I have noticed back when I was in China, was the difference in the way Chinese and westerners take and look at photos. When I say Chinese I can only account for the ones I’ve met personally, so even though I may be generalizing, I also know Chinese are different about this. Still […]
Just found out that I missed posting one of my marathon entries from back in China. Not sure what happened, but when I tried to backlink to it, I couldn’t find it. Turns out it was never posted, but fortunately I wrote all my stuff in documents and kept it on the laptop. Must have […]
So Someone managed to match the previous king of ugly with this “shoe”: “Crocs”… They put the ‘Super’ in Super-ugly. And… oh no… it’s not only for your children. Aparently adults are considered cool wearing them too. Fortunately I am neither a child nor an adult according to popular science, so you won’t catch me in these […]
… I have to share: Deep down, in places we don’t talk about in public, you know you want to know, right? May be related to this entry and may or may not be yours truly’s toes. If, and I emphasis if, it was to be my toes, the training in making nails, would have been […]
Do you have problems living with the oversensitive GFW of China like I do? This may be a solution You should note that you still need to think when you use it, as you have to replace words of concern with [*word*] to make it work. There may be a more automated solution to the […]
If you already live in China, or have been, you’d probably not find it extraordinary, but some of the “delicacies” may not fall well in a non-adventurous western stomach. Anyway, here’s the list: Cow stomach (I think it was raw, or at least only boiled a very short time) Chicken stomach (according to C I […]
Seems that I don’t have the flu, but just a horrible cold. Snotty nose, sore throat, cough and pretty dizzy. The doc tested me (way more intensively than the one in China), and found nothing but a cold. Ok with me, but still feel like shit. At least the fever is now gone. After my […]
