The Real Kung Fu
2007-10-16 07:00:00
Howdy from Shanghai! There’s a lot to see and do here. Especially eat. The food is great. Although I didn’t eat at this particular joint, the image of my childhood hero Bruce Lee was guarding the place and I had to snap a photo. I was curious as to the quality of food, but my buddy ...

Cheap Conversation
2007-10-11 10:00:00
I heard some muffled shouting, cursing and a series of thuds punctuated by agonizing yelps. It came from outside–the universal sounds of violence. I turned my head to the direction of the commotion, unable to see outside the windowless room. “Just a couple of drunks fighting,” she told me nonchalantly. “Don’t worry, it doesn’t have ...

Greetings from the motherland. It’s been a while since I’ve been to my place of birth (Seoul, Korea). The labyrinth of alleys that connect the city never ceases to amaze me. I always wonder how people find their way around.

Distraction

The ringing doorbell caught the old woman by surprise. She wasn’t expecting any company–especially from three gypsy women and an infant. Hesitantly, the old woman opened her door. The three gypsies greeted the old lady as if they’d known her for years and entered. Two of the visitors engaged the old woman in conversation. “Look at ...

Love by the Hour
2007-09-29 11:09:00
Jules was an old acquaintance of mine who ran an escort service. It was quite the jump from being a kitchen manager, which is what he was last time I had seen him. But oddly enough, it didn’t seem out of character. He showed me his operation while we caught up. “Is what you’re doing legal?” ...

Suicide Bluff
2007-09-24 09:23:00
When Little Johnny got grounded, one of his punishments was the suspension of all internet privileges. He could endure exile in his room. But the confiscation of his computer with wireless internet? That was the last straw. The kid had to make his move. Little Johnny loaded up his paintball guns and found a couple of ...

Biohazards

Pipsqueak was a little runt with a big ego. He was as unremarkable drunk as he was sober–just another nobody who thought he was a somebody. At 1:45 am he was just another drunk nobody getting eighty-sixed from a grimy little nightclub in a grimy part of town. About 20 minutes later, Pipsqueak and two of ...

New Look
2007-09-16 16:29:00
Well, I’ve got this site’s look about where I want it. It’s been a while since I’ve designed anything (over a year since the last time I’ve played around with Photoshop, Illustrator, HTML and CSS), and as a result, it’s taken me a lot longer than usual for me to put something together. Anyway, I just ...

Abandoned Baby
2007-09-10 05:40:00
It was two o’clock–time to kick out all the drunks, clean the place up and get the hell out of dodge. It was a task I took on in a most expeditious manner at the end of every shift. The faster we could get every customer out the door and lock it up, the faster ...

Falling Skies
2007-09-03 01:31:00
When the sky fell down over Manhattan on the Eleventh of September, we all felt the crunch. Even I did, all the way over on the other side of the country. People weren’t coming out and spending their money like they used to. The crowds of people lining up outside the front door of the ...

Unlikely Accomplice
2007-08-22 04:51:00
There’s a guy I know who lives in a shady part of town. The other night, he woke up to the sound of some little shithead breaking into his car. He looked out his window, verified that it was indeed his car that was being violated, quickly got dressed and ran outside to confront the ...

In Your Face
2007-08-19 05:51:00
It seems that you can’t go anywhere without some type of advertisement being pushed at you. When you take a piss at the bar, they make sure there’s an ad right in front of your face. You leave the bar and catch a cab home. There’s an ad on top of the cab. Or maybe ...

The Redheaded VIP
2007-08-15 18:19:00
When I took up a part-time job as a nightclub bouncer, I never thought I’d be looking down at a dead man at the end of my shift. But there he was on the sidewalk–belly up and full of bullet holes. The gunman fled into the urban jungle. The living scattered like rats. Some stood their ...

No Time to Waste

By all accounts, he was an amiable fellow. According to the neighbors, he was always there to lend a hand when needed, and was generally well liked. They were all shocked to learn that he hung himself in the garage. His rent was paid up until the end of the month, which gave the landlord plenty ...

Dying With Your Pants Down
2007-08-06 20:40:00
It would really suck to die with your pants down. It would be one thing if your pants had been completely removed from your body. But if they were down around your ankles it would be like, as the idiom goes, you got caught with your pants down. Wearing “tighty whiteys” would most definitely compound the ...
