Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf

By -

 I may have written about this in the past.  It is worth discussing.  This cartoon is entertaining, even though it is in Mandarin.  We first found out about it when we adopted our 7 year old daughter.  Entering our hotel room for the first time, she went right to the controller and turned on cartoons.  This shocked us.  We did not think they would have tv's in the orphanage.  I guess the TV is an international babysitter.  Our daughter knew the schedules and channels.  Pleasant Goat came on and my other two daughters were fixated by this show.  They had no dubbing or translation.  I will say, it was easy to figure out the show.  It was like Roadrunner and Coyote.  The wolf is always coming up with schemes to catch a goat and eat it.  Every time, the goats use their skills to thwart wolf.  That is the show.  It is very popular in China.  They have even done multiple movies.  In stores, the images are on a lot of kids toys.  I was looking at Temu and they even have branded items you can buy.  Later in the day, we talked to the other families.  We told them there was a great cartoon like Spongebob.  Man, did they freak out.  They do not let their children watch Spongebob.  The only cartoons they are allowed to watch are the Veggie Tales.  At that point, I felt sorry for them.

Rat Update

 Still trying to catch rats.  They are definitely smart.  They can get around traps.  They are also fast.  Evidently, they can not swim very well.  I was checking on a bucket of water.  In the bucket floated the body of a rat.  We try not to use buckets.  Baby chicks have that same problem.

Crazy Chickens

By -
 I'm sitting in my office at home.  All I can hear is the sound of chickens squawking. I think they are trying to encourage me to feed them.  I know when I go out, it will be like Ace Ventura and the animals flocking to him.  I do know they will squawk before laying an egg.  The roosters are non-stop with their calls!

I Feel Lost

By -
 This week, my phone died.  I could not believe it.  I was looking on it and it goes black.  I have my wife look at it.  She gets it to come back to life and updates it to the Icloud.  I start looking at it again.  Then, it dies again.  This time it is for good.  She called TMobile.  They wanted me to enter passwords.  I could not remember them.  They were on the phone.  Eventually, I used my Ipod to access something.  Because it was under a plan we have, I am able to get a new phone.  Only catch is is that it is the same model, Iphone 11.  If I wanted the newest phone, I would have to pay $300.  I went with the same model.  Now I just need to get it.  I find myself lost without my phone.
