It's not terribly different here from a stateside posting except for the fact that I cant have my car here & its 15 time zones away from home.

Pastime Posted February 15, 2004 Share Posted February 15, 2004 Pastime's evening was simple. I gave the wife a nice card and a small gift, then we went to dinner at a lakeshore restaurant (Lake Michigan is still frozen, sadly). Then we walked on the beach for a while, froze our asses off, and then drove home. Then I held her in my arms in bed for an hour until she fell asleep with Kenny G (GAG!!!) playing in the background. She's still asleep, I'm still awake, and I'm posting here. I hope you all had a nice Valentine's Day. If you didn't - I'm sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted February 15, 2004 Share Posted February 15, 2004 I had a nice Valentine's Day - got my wife a mushy card ( made her cry with what I wrote - I STILL GOT IT! ), some choco's and the Best Of Squeeze CD ( that "Bands Reunited" thing re-ignited her interest in Squeeze ) and then she totally trumped me by getting me a NICE replica Carolina Hurricanes home jersey ( how you like THAT, FanOf14?? ). I made her a nice dinner - chipotle soup and a big salad - and after the kid went to bed, we watched Lost In Translation ( overrated, and more than a little boring ) and we went to sleep with the sounds of sports-talk radio buzzing about ARod. Romantic, I know..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like shootin fish in a barrel... I had fun with it cuz after all I have a GF... Are you sure about that? Have you talked to her today? V-Day was nice. Got the kids locked away in their cupboard under the stairs, made a chicken and heavy cream dish me wife likes (w/artechokes, snow, peas, mushrooms, pearl onions and soe other yummy stuff). Had Chimay Cinq Cints (Belgian beer made by kick-ass Trappist monks) and a French Brouilly beaujolais with diner, and for dessert chocolate-covered strawberries and cherries with Lindeman's Framboise (Belgian raspberry lambic - if you have a girlfriend/wife who thinks she doesn't like beer let her try this). I gave my wife a certificate for a day at an upity spa she's been curious about. She gave me a game and a DVD of the complete Ed Sullivan shows with the Beatles' live appearances. The rest of the enjoyable evening is between the wife and myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember they got their seasons all turned around Down Under. It only got to around 78 here, but it was perfect weather today at the park watching my little gorl's T-ball team practice. And lake Michigan's still, frozen, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 DB, it's February!!!!! I'm in for the night now. I had a nice intimate night with an awesome girl. I'll hav to post sum pics of this place, huge ass 10 story shopping centre with a pyramid out front, and then a huge amusement park ALA Disneyland. Yesterday my Dad and I, and 2 Poms who r also stayin at da hotel with us, went on this ride, and it swings up and down goin faster and faster, until u eventually go around 360 degrees bout 10 times. And they were no bloody seat belts so u just had to hang on, lol. I've also bought heaps of DVD's down here in Kuala Lumpur for bout 3 dollars each including Pirates of the Carribbean, Lost in Translation, heaps of new 1's.

FlaSoxxJim Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 Any ideas on what the conference was called? I'm lookin in da local paper now. It's a mouthful. It's the "Seventh Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity," which started last Monday in Kuala Lumpur and runs through most of this week. It's kind of neat because it's bringing together more than 2,000 biodiversity shareholders including government delegates, scientists, and environmentalists. They are, among other things, exploring ways to help indigenous people share wealth created by their biodiversity resources. The idea is that if indigenous people are the de facto stewards of their local living systems, and the systems yield some big $$ prospect -- like a cancer cure from a rainforest plant, etc., the local people will get something out of it. In return, it is the responsibility of these local stewards to prortect the natural resources to make sure that yet-undiscovered cancer-curing plant doesn't go extinct before it is found. Does that make sense? Any way, I'm insanely jealous. Kuala Lumpur is way up on the life list of places I need to see. And that was even BEFORE I knew tthey had a 10-story mall.

Ah yes, it's called the COP-7 or CBD (Convention on Biological Diversity) down here. Anythin in particular u want to know Jim? There's an excellent article in the paper with the chief scientist talkin bout deforestation in Africa helpin spread diseases, and that human life and health depends on the health of other species and the integrity of our ecosystems. KL is certainly a great place to travel to, just make sure u go to a good restaraunt though. Went to a Scottish Pub (the owna is a mad, mad Celtic supporter with memmorabilla up everywhere) and the food was horrible, but last nite we went to a Brazillian BBQ place and the food was much, much betta. And there's heaps and heaps of 10 story malls around, but lets just say Malaysians are good at building stuff, but they ain't good at maintainin it.

I'm getting short daily dispatches on teh conference from an online service, and my institutions' library will get the full proceedings when they come out down the road. Just wondering if it is all running smoothly. Like the G7 conferences, these things tend to have protests of some sort associated with them and i was wondering how smoothly it was going.
