Stuff ... I See Stuff!

The nice thing about diddy-bopping around the globe with a camera phone is that when I see something that makes me appreciate the differences that bind us all together I can capture them. For instance, this past week I was in Manila and I saw this newspaper:



How do I get that job!? I'll give you a hint - it has nothing to do with the young ladies in the bikinis posing for a beauty pageant (yes I read the article).

Then, later on I came across this menu delight a Jollibee - the Filipino equivalent to McDonald's (but with a soul):



It was exactly like a hot apple pie, but with tuna! (In all fairness, it was quite yummy. It tasted just like a chicken pot pie with tuna instead of chicken.)

Back home we noticed that a new Pizza Hut was getting ready to open in our neighborhood. Parked out front, all in a row were:



Yep! Shiny brand new red pizza delivery mopeds! My camera phone doesn't quite capture it well, but I thought this was a pretty (and pretty unique) sight to see. An army of redness, just waiting to invade the surrounding neighborhoods with corporate American goodness in the form of melted mozzarella cheese!
