http://ofarmsandaman.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Of Arms and a Man. A South African in Asia. Thursday, April 29, 2010. The Old and the New. The 2010 Soccer World Cup is soon to be reality. (I remember when it was announced that SA had been awarded the cup. Quite a few guys contacted me with a "see you here in 2010". Now they've all left. And I might be going back - for a visit at least.). Wednesday, April 28, 2010. Well, everyone has to make a buck. And in these economically challenging times, a few are forced to turn to the "oldest profession"....

Of Arms and a Man. A South African in Asia. Wednesday, April 28, 2010. Well, everyone has to make a buck. And in these economically challenging times, a few are forced to turn to the "oldest profession". Unfortunately, the authorities do not always take kindly to this kind of thing and so we have the following article from Bali in the Taipei Times. Beach boys’ rounded up in Bali after gigolo film. Reaction is as a result of a documentary. Next challenge - who are they? 8220;All this while we’ve bee...

Of Arms and a Man: 2010 Taitung 123K Triathlon
http://ofarmsandaman.blogspot.com/2010/10/2010-taitung-123k-triathlon.html
Of Arms and a Man. A South African in Asia. Monday, October 18, 2010. 2010 Taitung 123K Triathlon. This photo was taken in Taitung. Just another beautiful day. I was riding up and down and finally rode the 50km north to Chenggong and the 50km back. I had run two marathons in Taipei in 2006 and 2007 and suddenly I started to wonder if there was something similar I could do on the bike with a run thrown in. ( I preferred not to think about a swim.). An internet search led me to Craig John's Taiwan Racing.

Of Arms and a Man: May 2010
http://ofarmsandaman.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Of Arms and a Man. A South African in Asia. Sunday, May 2, 2010. I thought this was amusing. The leader of US and NATO forces in Afghanistan, General Stanley McChrystal, was shown this PowerPoint slide as a way to lay out the current situation in Afghanistan. His dry response: " When we understand that slide, we will have won the war.". More on this from the New York Times here. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Though this be madness, yet there is method in't.". William Shakespeare, Hamlet.

Of Arms and a Man. A South African in Asia. Tuesday, October 19, 2010. 2010 123K Taitung Triathlon. Race Day found me stressed out at 5am. I had slept little but the adrenalin was pumping. I ate half a bagel, drank some green tea/isotonic drink and started checking and re-checking my stuff. I walked into the transition area at 0600. Everything was very well organized. I found my spot, parked the bicycle and started unpacking my kit. Then to the lake and an agonizing wait before the start. Are full of pas...

Of Arms and a Man: Back...
http://ofarmsandaman.blogspot.com/2010/10/back.html
Of Arms and a Man. A South African in Asia. Monday, October 18, 2010. Well, it's been a while. More than five months to be more precise. Suffice to say that the more things change, the more they stay the same. There's a good reason I want to post now. I had a mind-altering experience when I completed the 2010 Taitung 123K Triathlon over the weekend. There's precious little available in English about this kind of stuff for people (foreigners). Check the following post. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Of Arms and a Man. A South African in Asia. Saturday, April 24, 2010. April 23, 1915. On April 23, 1915 one of the most famous poets of World War I died of blood poisoning en route to the Dardenelles Campaign. He is forever remembered for the lines:. If I should die, think only this of me:. That there's some corner of a foreign field. That is forever England. There shall be in that rich earth a richer dust concealed;. A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,. From Free Market Fairy Tales. It was lik...
