Video: Thousand Year Old Egg

My laptop has been admitted to Kevin's computer ICU. Ever since we went to Taiwan I've been having problems with Explorer locking up on me, with growing frequency. My theory is that I caught a virus while being online at the hotel. We have a firewall at home that catches everything. Wish I would have installed Norton to protect me while we were in Taiwan. Live and learn, I guess.

Now that my laptop is back, I made a little video with some footage that I've been saving for several weeks. This was WAY FUN to make. So glad I could find just the right music to put with it. Sadly, I don't have any video footage of sampling stinky tofu for the first time... but that's another post!

  1. Yall are SO cute!! I was very impressed with yall's very adventurous spirits!

    Yall seriously make me wanna try it again . . . because it is the only thing I have ever tried and almost couldn't swallow.

    That was 10 years ago in 1998. So, maybe it is time for a rematch!!

  2. This is one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time... You guys! The jaws music makes it even better. I was almost expecting to see Sarah spit it out or something, lol!

  13. Personally, the scariest moment in that video was when Kevin reached for the glass of milk. The thought of pi-dan - some can get pretty potent - with milk *shudder*
