O Sitio do Sol Nascente deu-me um Thinking Blogger Award, num momento em que me sentia mais Sinking Blogger do que Thinking Blogger. Obrigado, Laumalai! A filosofia dos Thinking Blogger consiste em distinguir os blogs que nos fazem pensar. Assim, nomeio outros cinco blogs que me fazem pensar em Timor.

What the f--- is Joao trying to say anyway, and..., what the f--- does it have to do with JRH looking for a better half???

Duh!

Joao
thanks for the thoughts, but Xanana is written by a native of England, not Oz.

Joao said...

So sorry... honest mistake.
I'm changing the description to "a very brittish Ozzie" :)

Dear FOS: Since this is your website, perhaps you would be so kind as to translate Mr. Sarmento’s comment? Me no speak Pork ‘n Cheese; but then neither does over 80% of the other inhabitants of this plush tropical oasis. Maybe that’s the real underlying problem here: There is a major identity crisis going on! Tetum, Bahasa, or Pork n’ Cheese? That is the question!

To the last anonymous person:
It's Portuguese, not Pork n' Cheese! By saying and repeating that, you offend other people who never disrespected English speakers. Shame on you.
I run a bilingual blog (although my english is far from perfect) because I believe it's important to reach as many readers as possible. Because I respect you... but it's quite clear to me that YOU don't deserve it.
But I still respect you, and that´s the main difference between you and me. I'm willing to learn your language in order to better communicate with you. Are you willing to learn my language? Are you CAPABLE of learning my language? Even if it's just a little bit? Of course not! You think you are somehow better than me, but you're just hiding your own natural stupidity, aren't you?

By the way, have you ever tried pork and cheese (the food)? You don't know what you're missing...

fat old sod said...

Now now people. Calm down please...

OH NO!!! I just realized that FOS is younger than I am! There goes any chance of getting more handsome as I age...
And Greetings and Halucinations to attl veep.

PS - Must remember to get an Aussie tshirt for FOS should my travels go that way...

FOS,

The Ramos-Horta Republic Gazette just doesn't have the same ring to it.

After enjoying your "situations vacant" effort I have been looking forward to your next missive. Where is it? Your readers are hoping you have not been hit on the head with a rock or eaten by a shark!
-Concerned reader, Oz.

Probably just been too pissed for a week

Concerned Reader Oz
Re the lack of postings.
I think you might be onto something here. I actually heard that Mr FOS got stoned last week on Comoro Rd. Not sure if it was in his car or whilst walking. It's funny cause he always used to brag saying 'everybody knows me and leaves me alone'. Then I heard someone say he had a hit down near the beach. Several times there actually. Then again one MORNING! As matter of fact I think he's been stoned continually for well over a week now! God bless him. What a trooper. As they say it never rains, it pours, particularly here in Timor.
Those Poms are tough buggers though, he'll bounce back.
C'mon FOS, time to bounce, type with your nose if you have to, we misses ya

C'mon Sodmeister...

Fess up! Did you, or did you not get a few rocks thrown at you?

If yes, maybe they mistook you for another target.

However..., it is my firm position that nobody escapes living in ET with impunity.

On my way to Djibouti for a couple of months, but will monitor the blog religiously.
