GUNG HAGGIS FAT CHOY
In cheerfully multicultural Vancouver, the locals decided that Lunar New Year and Robert Burns day might go well together. That’s how GUNG HAGGIS FAT CHOY occurred. A dinner is held in which Scottish and Chinese foods are served, and a confusing set of events occurs, with bagpipes, ghost stories etc. I’m not sure how everyone feels a few hours later but it’s a great example of how to have fun with other people’s cultures.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
All of us at Be My Blog wish you a lucky, happy, and equine year on this lunar occasion.

Happy Kazoo Day from Be My Blog!
In honor of National Kazoo Day, all of us here at Be My Blog are honored to present the finest arrangement ever of Led Zeppelin’s ultra-classic “Whole Lotta Love.” While you may be tempted to bail out from this challenging yet respectful tribute, we urge you to stay up to 2:05 or so for the vocal breakdown which breaks and downs like a real breakdown.
This is an 8-bit prophecy of my end.
Every day, twice a day, this nearly happens to me.

A train station, a high-speed camera, and a lot of hard work
