《漣漪》
作曲﹕陳百強 作詞﹕鄭國江
生活靜靜似是湖水 全為妳泛起生氣
全為妳泛起了漣漪 歡笑全為妳起
生活淡淡似是流水 全因為妳變出千般美
全因為妳變出百樣喜 留下歡欣印記
靜默亦似歌 那感覺像詩
甜蜜是眼中的癡癡意 做夢也記起
這一串日子 幻想不到的優美

What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.
Sin city, going to the Chapel to get married?!
DAY1: arrived at resort; dined at Makito and danced the night away at LAX @ Pyramid, OMG my feet burnt and Jamie is one cool cat! LAX is so fun!
DAY2: Lunch with Wes @ San Toki for Hot Stone BIBIMBAP. Checked out Caesars Palace & Bellagio. Dined at SUPER overpriced Marrakechvegas, and danced the morning away at Pure. Total chaos but the night was fun overall. I would say that the terrace at Pure is the BOMB. Thanks to the self nipple loving MO Brad and the young at heart billionaries, WJ and I were partying at the VIP section. Over dinner, I met the bride to be, Audrey, and many blondies, the occasion was fair. I do liked Hansen, Kelly and AnnMarie. Also there are Rachel and Matt, we, 4 non-LDS Washingtonians do stick together. The night left me a huge dry cleaner bill. I will be making a long list for the dry cleaner after this trip.
DAY 3: The Vegas life style finally made us living liked a bump. After breakfast/lunch at 2:30 PM, WJ and I just chilled by the pool, aka "kicking" in the lazy river till the 5 PM.. wedding party... and did I tell you that, I met the man of my dream. "WINK". He is made of chocolate!

Stitches and broken limbs? Any taker?
We had 3 accidents in the last 2 months....this is a serious matter, and it takes serious people to solve this serious problem. We reached 07 record and we will all soon be wearing bump caps.

Clothing, Accessories & Shoes Hiatus
The goal was set in the beginning of the year, I first failed in April when I bought a purse. Things were going well till June and all the summer sales, I lost all my abilities to resist the shoes and the dresses, I was addicted to sales with its cheap/expensive thrill. Summer flew by fast and now my bank account is badly bruised with along with my ego. The up side from the whole ordeal was the tons of complinments that I got from being girlie adn cutie.....
Fall is approaching, great timing to put shopping and sales into hibernation till 2009.

How did we end up with W.
Is it to late to "unscrew up" the environment
Why can't slow drivers stay to the right
The universal questions (why are we here, what is after this, how did it all start, what are all those pretty lights up in the sky at night)
The future of our nation, we have some real challenges.
How do other people come to answer the universal questions
Is meeting people over the Internet really viable, or is it too contrived...

An extended and costly capital outage
First, the water for the caustic boilout was bery hard to come by, so we screwed up from the timeline bad. Then a roll cover (see roll cover) got damaged in the press section wreck, and we had to a cut a brand new piece of clothing to be replaced by another brand new piece of felt, we screwed up costly on that one. Then the 2nd attempt of start up was plagued with a run-away stock pump with huge RPM and the wrong JW ratio.The wet end was a mess! On the up side, the new profile gauging and control system is wonderful with full support from (Metso, ABB and CAS)! (see rainbow roll- oh so pretty fish and taco wrap!)
Gary's statement: " crappy felt with good pick up " really hit my spot in my heart. To top all these, the AC drive and PLC of the biocide system got fried during the shutdown, sure power surge did it, so they said.... The bugs are so lively and happy and they are practically laughing at me.
What I learned from all these.. how to be a cool and non-excitable engineer/papermaker/manager when life give you a really bad hand of cards and you have everything to bet against you!

When in doubt.. look at my fave quotes -enjoy!
Plus BoringFish original self intro-about some cute girl with brains... say 2 brain..freaky!!
These quotes were posted in myspace for a long time... time to share them along with so many other quotes.
Most of my fb quotes are funny and useless- see i.e below.
"When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us." -Helen Keller
'Be the change you want to see in the world"- Ghandi
'The most pathetic person in the world is one who has sight but no vision' - Helen Keller
i.e.
BoringFish is gas, BoringFish is liquid and Boringfish is solid.
I love Tree, seriously.

Dark August: capital outage and safety record
I am part of a million dollars project...but the shut at the wet end had NOT been going well. 1 more day to work on it and 5 hours fo me to sleep before I get back on the interstate.
Safety is a top focus, folks were getting hurt at the jobsite left and right in 2008's 2nd and 3rd Qs. IP-ALB had 1 recordable in July. NP and LV had 3 recordables in the past 3 months with many stitches counting. Bump cap is not too far away from reality. Then..here we have news about Workers burned by "Black Liquor" in GA.
Local Profitability: we bit SPL by half of 100 in July. It will be interesting to see how we fight for survival in this digitial-electronic informationa age, readership is way down. Up North, the pink slips are being hang out and I will be saying bye bye to a few ones at FW after the box biz bye bye, they are mostly scientists. But young Kevin Y is an exceptiona, I don't know his story but I am sure I will hear from him in FB and NAAAP.
TAKAO said hello again.... I need to write to tell him that I am such a bad friend.

A sweaty day
I sweated a lot today because of 3 reasons:
1. WJ, 2310 and I went hiking at Silver falls. But really, I was really focused on my power walking, scouting for bears, dancing with the rattle snakes and chasing squireee on my doggie behalfs. It was a great work out and I am feeling a bit sored.
2. Hot summer weather in OR. Do I need to say more, thanks to the one who invented AC! I repeat not a fan, not a swamp cooler but an AIR-Conditioner!
3. Chow time: eating really spicy noodles, ban-chan and Korean hot wings! and really yummy shaved ice with fruits.....What would life be with/o H-mart food court?
Pictures? Miss WJ has it all, waiting...

FORWARDS FROM NGAMS: 結婚篇
以前提到結 婚，想到「天長地久」；現在提到結婚，想到「能撐多久」。
當初會結 婚，說是「看上眼」；後來會離婚，說是「看走眼」。
婚前，愛情 是神話；婚後，愛情是笑話。
男人花錢， 是為了讓女人高興；女人花錢，是因為男人讓她不高興。
嫁入「豪 門」，要懂得理財；嫁入「寒門」，要懂得生財。
以前的人， 視婚姻生活為「一輩子」；現代的人，視婚姻生活為「一陣子」。
婚前，男人 在餐廳等女人；婚後，女人在客廳等男人。
婚前，男人 經常找女人「討論」；婚後，男人只告訴女人「結論」。
婚前，男人 對她悄悄講話；婚後，男人對她大聲講話。
戀愛時，情 話綿綿；結婚後，謊話連連。
戀愛時的男 人，喜歡「毛手毛腳」；結婚後的男人，變成「沒手沒腳」。
婚前，情侶 做什麼都是「浪漫」；婚後，夫妻做什麼都是「浪費」。
想結婚，是 自己已能獨立；想離婚，是子女已獨立。
婚前的男 人，大都很幽默；婚後的男人，大都很沉默。
女人的記 性，吵架時最好；男人的耐性，結婚後最差。
戀愛時，一 見面就「親嘴」；結婚後，一見面就「鬥嘴」。
婚前，男人 常給女人「空白支票」；婚後，男人常給女人「空頭支票」。
戀愛時，生 活「妙不可言」；結婚後，日子「苦不堪言」。
婚前，男人 天天盯著女人；婚後，女人天天盯著男人。
熱戀時，總 相許下輩子再結良緣；結婚後，懷疑上輩子造作孽緣。
大男人，會 「作威作福」；好男人，會「作牛作馬」。
婚前，「謊 話」都是「情話」；婚後，「情話」都是「廢話」。
婚前，靠近 一點；婚後，閃開一點。
婚前，沒話 找話說；婚後，有話也不說。
「成功」？ 對男人的定義是指能賺很多的錢，對女人的定義是指能花很多的錢。
男人有錢就 變壞，女人變壞就有錢。
男人沒有女 人，耳根清淨；女人沒有男人，居家乾淨。
男人「入錯 行」，上班會很痛苦；女人「嫁錯郎」，下班會很痛苦。
好女人，養 壞男人的胃口；壞女人，吊足男人的胃口。
婚前，男人 像傳令兵；婚後，男人像指揮官。
失戀不見得 是世界末日：你的心也許會「泣血」，你的荷包卻可以不再「吐血」

How many songs do they have? Everyone wants to represent. $$$$$$

ST: (Seattle situation)Wall Street clear-cuts jobs at Weyerhaeuser headquarters and Seattle faces the runoff, rought time at the emerald cities!
Weyerhaeuser cutting 1,500 white-collar jobs; most at Federal Way headquarters
LDN: Analysts expect Weyerhaeuser cuts will have minimal effect on local operations, wow an analyst moron is calling us "a keeper" aren't we special?
Weyerhaeuser swings to 2Q loss on lower revenue, wall street and REIT are taking us down....

Bye Bye Box Biz
I am getting sentimental on this subject…Weyerhaeuser Completes Sale of Assets to International Paper, it is harder for me to say goodbye than I anticipated. I checked and found out that all CBPR are gone from the people and profile list. Nothing would show they had ever existed in the network. They are ghost now and they are no longer US.
2 weeks ago, I received action notice to stop my directory migration to IP. After being said and done, I was added to the FW server and this morning, I am one of the many that had called 7373 to report a discruption in my data flow. I am disabled to all my files. Are you ready to go back to the paper and pen age?
