This is so whack.

A Good Year for the World's Tallest Man

Great achievements of Bao Xishun, the 7-foot-9-inch herdsman from Inner Mongolia:
- Saved two dolphins that ate some bad plastic.
- Got married to a total babe from the village.
- Met Superman.

Relatively speaking, though, Xishun isn't that impressive. He's only 7'9" -- other world's tallest men have been taller by alot. Like Robert Wadlow, RIP.

I spent 30 dollars today on a Swiss Army knife that I don't even really want.

However, I do insist that from here on forth I be reffered to exclusively as "Officer Suisse."

In China right now, it seems that one can log into and update their blogger, but no one can view any blog hosted on blogger.


Hopefully they'll loosen up their grip soon.

Not much to do with China, but we here at MaoZeDingDong offer coverage on all global issues. Like who pokes Jamie Swezey on theFacebook.com..

"BOORSHIT!"

"BOORSHIT!", originally uploaded by _borna.

Last night was Zweng's first night in town. We wound up playing a dice / bullshit style chinese drinking game with the locals at a gnarly dive bar down the street from us.

The rules of the game, as far as I could tell...

Everyone has 5 dice and "rolls" by shaking them around in a cup placed upside down on a table.
Players then privately look at their own dice, without letting other players see.
Turns are taken in a cirlcle and what you have to do on your turn is guess at how many of a specific number are on the table. For example, if you look at your own 5 dice and see that you've rolled 2 Three's, then consider how many people you are playing with (4 players x 5 dice each = 20 dice) you might guess that there are 6 Three's on the table.
The catch is that a player's guess must always be higher than the player before. So if my turn is next, I would for example say "7 Two's" OR I could call BULLSHIT on you - at which point everyone lifts their cups and we check. If it turns out that there are less than 6 Three's then you'd have to drink. If there are 6 or more, then you're safe and I lost the challenge - and therefore have to finish my glass.

Other important stuff to note:
-One's are "wild cards" and count for any number. I.E. 6 Five's + 4 one's = 10 Five's
-The loser of the previous round starts the new round.
-I'm unclear on wether anyone can call bullshit or if it has to be your turn. The game isn't any less fun either way.
