NOTE: No paper was harmed in the making of this blog!In all fairness though, my wife and I pulled up behind a pickup truck with a couple of local boys in it, one of whom was wearing a baseball cap with a Chinese character on it and I heard my wife snicker. So I asked what was so funny and she goes, "well that boy's hat says 'arm' in Chinese."
Whoa...on a totally unrelated note, some little kid just puked in front of my classroom...don't worry I'm not going to post a picture of it, nor am I going to have the steamed fish with lemon butter sauce now either. (cringe)
Speaking of school...I had what could possibly be called a uniquely Saipan conversation with a couple of students this afternoon. I had two 5th grade girls in my class sitting next to each other with the same last name and I asked them "Ok which one of you is Sally and which one is Sandy" to which one of them replied "I'm Sandy, she's Sally...she's my auntie" Of course I (ala Steele on Saipan) said "No you must mean cousins" but the girl was like "no she's really my auntie" and slowly Mr. Redd caught on. But seriously can you imagine being in the 5th grade with your aunt? That would be so trippy...but that's why I love Saipan.
Student Quote of the Day:
"Mr. Redd, why are you taking pictures of your desk?"

Yo bro, thanks for the pitch! I'll reciprocate on the link.
It never ceases to amaze how large producers of goods don't feel that they need to get proper English-language editing for their product. My favorite is the Sign & Sign store. I want to order a sign and then go in and try to sign fo it.
You free to go looking for noni investors?
