Here's something that confused me for about a week: Daylight Savings Time happened and I didn't realize it. I'm now one hour further into the future! Speaking of the future...


One day on the train, Mike and I spotted a New York Yankees t-shirt that read "2009 World Champions."

"The Taiwanese really love the Yankees, eh?" Mike observed (yes, he is Canadian). Yankees apparel is more than abundant in Taiwan, thanks to 'Yankee fever' brought over by Tainan native Chen Ming Wang (I'm desperately waiting for the discovery of a vaccination).

"Yeah, they do," I agreed. "But wait, the Yankees didn't win the World Series in 2009. Nobody did."

This was about 6 months ago. I thought for sure such a bold prediction would jinx the Yanks. No such luck.
