"The Poll"

Well poo, I tried to vote for other things and got this:

You have already voted,
Your last vote was not added to the results

Darn.

Oh well, I did already put in my $.04 worth on what I'd like to see on the website. But I did want to try to vote again like you asked. :) Anyhoo, there you go. One person, one vote. Definitely not rigged, huh? *grin*

Hrm

If they don't like it when you start a sentence "When I was in Korea..", then there's a few things you can glean from their responses. 1) They don't give a damn about learning ANYTHING outside their own little snowglobe world; 2) They're jealous *GRIN*; 3) They're so insecure about their own lives that they're thinking you're trying to make them think you're better than they are because you've BEEN somewhere; 4) If it's your friends saying this, hrm, time to re-evaluate the friendship.
At any rate, it's their problem, not yours. At the very least, you'll be able to weed out the ones you won't care to talk to about anything important to you ever again. :)

(ooh, there's my BAD Gemini half coming out to put her $.02 worth in. *GRIN*)

Ideas...

Actually, Shelly, you *should* be able to vote for more than one answer. As they say, 'vote once, vote often'.

As for the NB History, that'd be swell. I think I will do that, maybe once I get some local photos built up... elsewise I could snag some archive ones which would be free of copyright.

As for the Korean culture, I don't know. I've been warned by other expats that nobody likes someone who goes around back home and starts every sentence with, "When I was in Korea..."

Oof

I accidentally submitted before I was done. Anyway, I'd certainly also be interested in a little bit of history of your section of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia(since you lived there for quite a while), as well as some input on Korean history and culture. I'm guessing Yeji is going to start a new website once she joins you in Canada, so perhaps for those of us who are
relatively ignorant of Korean culture and history(outside of the Korean war), maybe that would be a good way for her to practice more English and educate the rest of us. I'm always mindful of the fact that each country's "history books" are slanted to give the best view for each particular
country, but at least by hearing other people's points of views from them, you can get a little better idea of where the truth lies. :)
Anyway, there's some more 'cannon fodder' for ya. :)

Poll

Ian, if you really want a better idea of what people would like to see, mebbe put up another poll similar to this one, only let people rate 'em 1-whatever in order of importance to them. :) I know I certainly would have voted for more than one topic. Whatcha think?
Oh yeah, PLEASE, no deep, dark, depressing stuff. *grin* As for the nekkid pics, let's let Yeji keep those for herself, shall we? *snicker*
