I must be getting old just my whole body aches today. For PT they thought it was a good idea to run all the way to the subway station and back. My legs hurt so bad I just want to collapse. Tired but too much too do. I am hoping that in a month I will be able to take some rest (with a baby, yeah right). Another day, I am going to bed.

McDonald’s Drive thru in Korea do Exist!!!
Korean’s putting their kids up for adoption for a better education?
I thought this was rather weird. My wife freaked out saying they can’t do this like she had never heard of it so I think the story might be a little blown out of the water. (1 out of 3 want to do this?)
Basically people in Korea are paying retired couples in the states and Canada to adopt their full grown kids so that they are legal citizens in that country and can go to school there to get a better education. The Korean couple pay amounts up to $30,000 to these couples to do this. They may give up their legal rights but they still maintain a relationship with their biological parents as no adoption took place and continue to live in seperate countries.
I guess, some people believe that their children come first. Personally I feel its best to raise the child myself and would never send them away so they can get a better education.
Thanks to Oranckay for pointing this one out.
U.S. Forces Korea allowing archeological digs on bases
But following those preliminary inspections at Pohang and Yongsan, South Korea and USFK struck an agreement a month ago to allow for more inspections of U.S. bases to seek Korean artifacts and treasures, said officials from both nations.
The administration is eager to do more searches to discover artifacts and architecture that may document Korea’s past, according to Yoon. “The agreement lays the foundation in inspecting Korea national treasures systematically at the U.S. bases,” he said.
The Cultural Properties Administration is to take the lead on the inspections, though USFK must approve the site visits, both sides said.
Yoon said he hopes to gather information on possible artifacts, other burial mounds and architecture on U.S. military bases throughout the country. His agency also is interested in gathering data on animals and plants that might be indigenous to such areas.
$10,000 for a Hot Dog?!?!
Someone has gone and placed a hotdog that they bought at the Seahawks and Panthers game that took the Seahawks into the NFC Championship. It’s just a friggin hotdog, its not like he caught the game ball or something. WTF? Well, I guess if you have the money.
