Knowing how to get out of hydroplaning or skidding on ice / snow is a skillset that usually only develops through experience (while knowing what to do is fine, you can still mess up actually doing it). Our first instinct is usually to just panic, and then slam on the brakes. It still happens. As in performing a concert or a recital, if you don't know how to relax or overcome nerves - things can get messy or ruined. Likewise, if you don't know how to stay calm - things can turn for the worse. Driving slow or avoid driving if you don't have to (at least in snow) is a surefire preventive measure. You'd be surprised how slippery roads can get even with a bit of rain - or driving over small puddles. Kenny + Kwon. Brandon H. Lee and DDY. It's a shame there was never a Kenny vs. Kwon fight. How short - DDY stood on an apple box and still looked like a munchkin (same height as Bobby Lee, the difference is - Bobby Lee never grew haha). Granted, Griffith and Luwis appears to be similar height - 6'4" or so. I'm a bit shorter than Brandon, so I'd be only up to their necks. Aside from having a long head and short legs - I stopped growing after the 6th grade. While most acquaintances had their growth spurts later in life, now they're all taller than me. Uglies might not stand out - we have to stand out in other ways. Saturday, March 22, 2025 Escape rooms sound fun, but there's too much thinking involved haha. You gotta have Pro's like Sungwon Cho or Disguised Toast to figure things out and get you out of it quick. Dustin Nguyen as Son Pham sounds 'dope'. Dope Thief is another show that appears intriguing, but again - you have to subscribe to watch. Apple is a no-go, since it is hella expensive and compatibility with a lot of common software is limited or non-existent. For now, my wish list to watch (although some of them improbable unless I can rent them somehow). Otherwise, it's time to begin watching K-Dramas again:
Thursday, March 20, 2025 World Piano Day is in about a week. I don't have social media, but there are fans or pianists who'll share their repertoire on that day. As for me - just the pieces I've been practicing recently (Turkish March, Chopin's Grand Valse, and Schubert's Wanderer first section) are going to be my pieces for that day. I haven't heard any updates on "Alice in Borderland" S3, except it should release sometime this year. What could it be about, other than it's the Joker's turn to play games. Now that the main characters are awake and alive, they could have to flatline for a bit to play the Joker's game in order to save someone. Or it could happen in the real world. Here's a snazzy teaser image: 
Wednesday, March 19, 2025 Nuhmeh Clogged Disposal-Style! Which is worse - clogged garbage disposal, or clogged toilet haha. Rentals are only temporary for tenants, so it doesn't make sense to have a garbage disposal installed. More often than not, they'll break the damn thing with shit you won't believe thrown down theya. D'uh. Hahaha. For sure, you can bet yo' bottom dollah that Thach won't provide a plunger for the toilets either. Hahaha. Jimmy O. Yang livin' the good life - good food, beautiful city, etc. Shanghai for life. "Any bozo can learn and play notes. Real performance and inspiration comes from expression". - Me. Page 2
