Well, with Chinese New Year happening it’s time to revisit those resolutions.
Or did I make any? Hmm, kind of stumbled backwards into the New Year.
Enjoying the way things have been going lately, from the enthusiasm of the recent Saints Game

to the double-whammy of Chinese New Year (Wear yr red underwear 4 good luck!) and Valentines Day. All gearing up to Khmer New Year!
I’m not going to burden *you* with my resolutions, but one is to web up more of my sizeable backlog of goodies – photos, comics, video, tidbits. Some I’ll post in the present day, some on the date when they actually happened. (‘Retroblogging‘?)
Above: a set of some photos taken in Long Beach. Reminiscent of Mexican ‘Loteria’ imagery with a twist. Full glory at: http://jinja.apsara.org/category/lbctrainart/ or http://www.flickr.com/photos/jinja_cambodia/sets/72157623430059858/

What’s in a name? Gentle gentrification: Forget the garish ‘Knickers and Liquors’ – it’s now rebranding to ‘MUSE LOUNGE’. Sign O’ the times?
Complimentary drink, free-flowing beer, free food from 6pm-8pm. Near Wat Sarawan, near corner of Street 19 and 172. (Map of locale) Check it out!
I’ll be there as pal Rithya inaugurates a new chapter in the pub’s history.

This brightened up my day:
Scholar and blogger Erik Davis (formerly of blog DeathPower) is back with
“Imagining the Real World.” Hooray!

Off to click through the many tidbits on offer, digesting a rather exhaustive examination of Chomsky Cambodia chronology.
Postscript: more drama on that last bit from Details Are Sketchy!

You just can’t make stuff like this up.
For Photo Wednesday.

A nice start to the day. (And I’d first thought it was a wedding!)
I’ll check the papers, doubtless these are confiscated from illegal logging operations (that haven’t kept current on their bribes).
