Honoring one of my favorite bits on the Jimmy Fallon's Late Night Show, here I am with my own little Thank You Notes. P.S. I am so hoping to have the thank you note music comping with this blog too.
Thank you, all you college students in your school outfit. You are like a walking location flash card. Just when I am lost, and yes, here you are. I am currently in the town of... Duke.
Thank you, Facebook People You May Know, for constantly reminding me of people I'm trying to ignore.
Thank you, @ sign, for making our life much much much easier when we have to spell out the word "at".
Thank you, the end of NBA lockout, signed by the Union of Bookies.
Thank you, social networking sites, for linking up people who already know each other and for letting people networking without actually being social.
Thank you, old people smell, for being a reliable indicator of senior citizens.

Yet Another Thought
Listening to few ol' tunes the other day. What's up with that Louis Armstrong singing White X'mas? It ain't right man, just ain't right. The song could be renamed to fine x'mas, nice x'mas, or tight x'mas... yeh yo.

Music, Lately
What's going on with R&B music lately? Lyrics are so unbearable.
First off, question to the ladies: How many of you think Trey Songz invented sex? I always thought it was Thomas Edison, oh my bad...
Ah, I am sick and tired of hearing making bed rocks, Okay? And please, I don't see how rocking her bed has anything to do with Stevie. Alright, alright, maybe that one time when Stevie's singing helped me to get laid, that's it. But I am sure this song won't.
By the way, I don't care about neighbor's names. Keep the squeaky noise down and use cup coasters, okay? You probably don't want to hear any scratching, yelling, and wall banding from my apartment either. Geez, trying to get some sleep here, Trey Songz.
And Luda, really? Is it the best you can come up with? Right, how low can all these go...
It makes me understand that there must be a market for all these great songs. If not, R. Kelly would have stopped making records to preach to girls. You know.

Random Thoughts
Just a thought, or thoughts indeed...
How come we never complain about "Damn! This computer is too fast for me. It needs to slow down."
Okay, of many thoughts come across our minds, men's of course, how about a penis reduction surgery? That's right - I don't think so!
Isn't Bluetooth the greatest invention? Now you can pretend speaking into the Bluetooth car phone and having a fake conversation in your car while you feel it is actually okay to talk to yourself, accompanying with hand gestures, because others have no idea about and don't know you being a total self-talk weirdo.

Sardine in a Can
Sardine is the type that you either love or hate, and I just happen to love the taste of it. However, I haven't been able to find any great grilled sardines in the US, and it has been a challenge to find good sardines in a can also. So, I have been trying to find the best that is available in the US and here are a few of some I have tried:
Cole's Sardines Smoked Portuguese Sardines in Olive Oil, Portugal
The Good: The smokiness is about right, not overly strong, not so weak to distinguish. It adds complexity to the taste of sardine.
The Bad: Falls apart quite easily. Makes you curious whether fish was fresh during canary process.
Rating: 3
Morgada - Sardines Portugaises a la Tomate, Portugal, $4.50
The Good: Overall taste of the tomato sauce is quite good. Sardines are average.
The Bad: Sardines in tomato sauce just not my favorite, quite pricey.
Rating: 2
Matiz Gallego, Spain, $2.95
The Good: The size of sardines come just right! Chunky and tasty, with firm texture yet not too rough, without strong fishly smell. The bone is chewable and crunchy.
The Bad: Just couldn't get enough in one can.
My thoughts: Serve with toast.
Rating: 5
As do Mar Sardine (all'olio di Oliva), Portugal, $2.95
The Good: Taste is decent without strong fishly smell. Texture is not firm enough but overall is not bad.
The Bad: Salty.
My thoughts: Serve with food, say salad...
Rating: 4
Angelo Parodi Sardine (all'olio di Oliva), Portugal, $2.95
The Good: Fair. Taste - Okay. Nothing stands out exceptionally.
The Bad: Texture is slightly soft with slightly strong fishly flavor.
Rating: 2
Ligo (Tomato Sauce), The Phillipines, $0.XX
The Good: Price.
The Bad: Fishes are small and lack of the sweetness. Texture is soft and slightly rough.
Rating: 1
Bela-Olhao (Olive Oil), Portugal, $2.XX
The Good: Fair. Imported from Portugal.
The Bad: Fishes are small with slightly strong fishly taste.
Rating: 1
King Oscar (Two Layer, Olive Oil), Norway, $2.65
The Good: Fair. Neatly packaged. No fishly taste.
The Bad: Fishes are significantly small.
Rating: 2
Crown Prince (Two Layer, Olive Oil), Scotland, $2.65
The Good: Fair. No fishly taste. Similar to King Oscar Brand.
The Bad: Fishes are significantly small. No chewable bones.
Rating: 2
Sardine Pollastrini di Anzio, Italy, $4.95
Piccanti all'Olio d'Oliva Specialita della Casa
The Good: Although size of the sardines is relatively small, they have so much flavor in them, especially a kick of spiciness. Texture is firm, and olive oil is nicely "aged" in the oil.
The Bad: Not enough.
My thoughts: It is one of the best in the market most definitely, but it can't be consumed all by itself because of the saltiness.
Rating: 5
Natural Sea Brisling Sardines in Soybean Oil, Poland, $2.95
The Good: Flavorful.
The Bad: Texture is sort of mushy. Size is rather small. Bones are not noticeable.
Rating: 3

Porthos - Sardines a la sauce tomate
The Good: Tomato sauce is not made of tomato paste, instead it is tomato oil. Fish is decent, size is slightly smaller as compared to others, without strong fishly smell.
The Bad: Texture is slightly rough. Sardines & tomato sauce just not sophisticated enough.
My thoughts: hmmm.... spaghetti?
Rating: 3
Bon Appetit - Sardines Portugaises a l'huile d'olive, Portugal

The Bad: Not spicy enough, and the size of sardines is relatively small.
Rating: 4
Maruzzella - Sardine (All'olio di Oliva), Italy
The Good: Overall quality is superb. The size of sardines is in the larger size; the taste is well preserved; and they are not very salty.
The Bad: Bones are not crunchy enough to be noticeable.
My thoughts: It is a versatile product to be used for almost everything.
Rating: 4
Nostromo - Sardine All'olio di Oliva, Italy
The Good: Chunky.
The Bad: Not enough flavor, and texture is rough.
Rating: 2
Delicius - Sardine All'olio di Oliva, Italy
The Good: The size of sardines is good. Bones are adequately crunchy. It's lightly seasoned so additional seasoning can be added to it.
The Bad: Texture and taste tend to be on the mushy and fishy side.
My thoughts: It is versatile and I think it can be made as a Pâté .
Rating: 4
Fauchon Rillettes de Sardine, France
The Good: This is not a regular sardine in a can, but pâté in a jar. It has a very enjoyable taste, although it is quite different from what I have reviewed so far.
The Bad: Addictive.
Rating: 5
Minerva Sardines Piquantes Portugaises A L'Huile Vegetale, Portugal
Rating: 3
Season Skinless and Boneless Imported Sardines in Pure Olive Oil, Morocco
The Good: Excellent for making pâté and breadspread. Olive oil complimenting the sardines is thick and tasteful.
The Bad: Firm texture that makes them hard to chew. Sardine itself is less impressive than the olive oil.

Another Thought - Current Economy
"Economy, what'd happened?"
"Oh boy, you are in bad shape."
"Hell, you look like SH!T."
Banking systems failed. Auto industries suffered. Stock market crashed. Governments fetch out new plans to slow down the economy free-falling and ease the market pain. Corporate CEO's call for help from the government. Resources (let just say money) are pumped into private industries from the governments, and they even take the liabilities of these firms to ensure investors' confidences. This is happening to this government, which is the same country against Communist all along while it is practically adopting the principles of Communism. Irony huh?
I am not here to bash this country exercising socialistic ideologies (let just ease off on the "C" word here). As a matter of fact, I am definitely in support for the idea that governments shall be formed by the people and shall be for the people. In hard time like right now, I firmly believe the government is responsible for laying out new policies to help the ones in need. However, if it is only one thing this country has reputation for, it is the inability to follow through and complete the intended missions. As an example, remember all the wars?
If we are to help the economy recovered, let's get serious. First thing first - let's get rid of all worker unions - let's fire those donuts chuckers and caffeine inhalers don't have actual work, especially those work groups that have only one person working and fifteen others overseeing for safety and quality control. Just sick and tired of these lazy asses protected by the unions. Isn't the State running out of money and risking bankruptcy? I'm just irritated by these overpaid "supervisors" supervising each other.
I know, people will be crying fouls that without unions all workers will be exploited by the greedy rich. Okay, let me throw a proposal here - let's unify all worker unions into a single governing body. Oh, hey, wait a minute here - Didn't we already have something similar? Isn't it called the GOVERNMENT?!
Next, let's bust a tax cap on those mofluggers making millions a year but paying 15% tax. What is the justification of a person making billions in a year? It translates a salary of 19 dollars per minute. Technically speaking, these people are paid taking a dump. Their bowel even has a price tag on it! Meanwhile, there are people starving in the world and couldn't even get one full meal a day. This doesn't sound right at all!
Really, where does the money come from to pay off these billion dollar tycoons? In the current zero-sum society, the rich get all the doughs, while the poor lose their shirts, or even worse - underwear. Shouldn't these money collectors pay back to the society, regardless if they are willing or unwilling to do so? Isn't this government a self-proclaim humanitarian defender, yet we allow the well-to-do's to get loaded from the public poor? I don't think this is very humane at all, my friend.
Then, let's trim down the size of the government. What's up with all these bureaucracies happening in the government? The pretentiousness of these government officials rots the once plausible nation. These folks are holding a tight grip on their jobs, social status, and power by making jobs more complicated than ever. What's up with the ATF, NSA, FBI, US Marshals, Coast Guards, Secret Service, Marines, Army Corp, Navy, Air Force, CIA, you name it... There are so many of them to confuse the fuck out of us. Really, is ATF necessary? Do we really need a policing force to oversee alcohols, cigarettes, and firearms? Can't NSA and Secret Service be merged? And don't get me started with US Marshals and FBI...
And when the government bails out financial institutions by taking over their debts caused by the sub prime crisis, shouldn't the government own these real estates? These keep me pondering... Why can't the government use these lands/properties for low-incoming housing, retirement homes, or rehab centers? Isn't there a better way to deal with all the empty foreclosed houses? Oh why not build more prisons on these lands? Don't we have prison overcrowded issue in the U.S.? Didn't a study report that once every three people in this country has been/is in jail. Some of these prisoners are charged with use/possess of marijuana. Now I have a second thought - Can't we just legalize it so that the government is not wasting precious money to bust these stoners?
Well, after all, we are living in the united state of accusation.
