Newswire - Hong Kong WWF (World Wrestling Federation)?
Another tidbit of recent overzealous behaviour in the "vibrant city that never sleeps" that is Hong Kong:
The Piledriver in Central (HK) (01/24/2007)
(Apple Daily) In Hong Kong Central, at 12:30pm yesterday, a 36-year-old restaurant take-out delivery man named Leung took twenty bowls of soup to go to Jardine House. At the corner of Pedder Street amd Des Voeux Road, he bumped into two foreign males. There was an argument and then a physical altercation. At first, Leung had the upper hand as the foreign male was hit in the left eye, cheek and forehead. The irate foreign male then applied a piledriver move on Leung, who immediately passed out. The foreign male then left the scene quickly. Leung was sent to the hospital for treatment.
But a 52-year-old foreign woman saw the fight and tailed the foreign male into the subway system. The foreign woman then notified a patrol police officer and an arrest was effected at the MTR Wanchai stop. The foreign male is a 21-year-old British citizen named Munro. He is out on a HK$500 bail. He had minor injuries on his face.

DJ Shadow, Sheung Wan Hong Kong - August 2006 + 2006 pics

Tin Hau Temple & abandoned village, Lamma Island, 21.01.2007
A few more pics taken from the Tin Hau temple on Lamma....
Also a pic taken from one of the last villages we came across.... the well look a bit creepy...something like what the original "Ring" had!
Lamma Island, 21.01.2007
The thought of the kamikaze caves in Sok Kwu Wan never went away ever since Nov last year, so Win and I decided to go check it out and see what it was all about. Arriving at Yung Shue Wan, we followed the signs to do the Lamma hike - bypassing antiquated and various abandoned villages (makes for awesome skirmish locations!)
The Northern tip of Lamma seemed more lively with local stores littering the streets (much more akin to Cheung Chau), whereas the south seemed more just a stretch of restaurants for tourists. Saw some very nice and funky houses mixed in with the restaurants, but the abundance of stray cats and dogs loitering around emanating their own mini tsunami of fleas was enought to put a dent in one's appetite.
The caves were not quite as expected (for some reason I thought it was more like the underground caves the Vietcong used) and were huge visible caverns with open access to the sea.
We decided to call it a day at Mo Tat Wan, ferrying it back to Aberdeen for a long overdue lunch - Vietnamese Pho! Hooray!
Hong Kong, 2007!
