What a Difference a Year Makes

This time last year I hit Hong Kong Market with a friend and dodged kids throwing poppers on the floor in celebration of Lunar New Year - Rat. Some folks were beginning to wear face masks. We were not yet wearing masks ourselves.

A few weeks later, another friend and I went to Rockfish Grill for their Mardi Gras specials. We decided we needed to do this again next year, but with many more people in tow. It was simple fun, folks going around handing out beads to patrons, and just lots of people enjoying a great evening out.

This year, I'm expecting to see a polar bear outside my window, and given the 133 car pile-up on the nearby freeway due to only a slight layer of ice, I'm avoiding freeways like the ... well, hell. I think we determined that phrase is kind of null and void now.

Just like how Mythbusters busted the Bull in a China Shop phrase.
