2008-08-30 Prelude to Alaska Cruise

I have emailed several times to NCL, asking for complimentary wifi access. However, they have balked at my request. The boarding time is 1600, so this blog might experience staccato posting, pending on the available aid of fellow-travellers. Just joking.

2009-08-29 Mexican Dinner, Seattle

2009-08-29 Costco - Food Testing

There are many ways to resolve the poverty issue.

In Malaysia, these are the plans designed by professional gate crashers ( hereinafter known as PGC )to address the hunger issues.

Many car service centers,e.g. Toyota, Perodua, Datsun ... provide free beverages and light foods for waiting customers. As there are no restrictions to enter these premises, the PGC can gain entry without much fuss, thus the morning breakfast is well taken care of. In fact, PGC can linger on for the whole day. Perhaps, being adventurous, PGC will target other venues for lunch and dinner. The most likely destinations are company functions held at hotels or even at their own premises. PGC can match in without fear and fraternise with invited guests and the hosts. Of course, the hosts have no inkling whatsover about the real identity of PGC.

Another good target places to go are the wedding lunch or dinners. Do you think the host will evade the PGC if their identities are exposed?

If you are hard working, the hunger issue is never an issue.

quod erat demonstrandum

In US, the Costco is also another good place to gate-crash. They serve very generously. If you go through all these counters, I doubt you have extra storage space for dinner.

These photos may not last long here, one day Costco may contact me.

Take Away

The aftermath of vicious gluttony action

If you don't like dim sum, another healthy alternative is the blackberry which is

ubiquitous in Seattle. At one time, the authority has to deploy goats to eradicate this rampant growth. This lady has contributed her civic responsibility by eating it in situ.
