Not sure of the details but I was talking to my ball n’ chain and she said she saw a news story about a loser foreigner (an American by the name of Kevin) kicking in a door at a hotel and ending up in a police station. Apparently, on top of the damaged door, he had no money to pay for his stay. Stay tuned; I’m still looking for a Canadian angle. So weird recently - non-Canadians bringing shame upon the noble whiteys of the R.O.C. ---

Was it just last night there was an item on the news about some American (US) guy staying in a hotel here and not paying his bills, and lounging and wandering around naked? They were even showing video of the guy in his hotel room walking around in his gutchies. WTF, on several levels! ---

He was shouting out the window and wearing his underwear - but still - is this another case of Taiwan video cam’s in yer hotel room? By the way, it looks like he was a Russian with an American passport. Which may or may not be valid…maybe a naturalized citizen or just a Yank with a Russian name…questions questions… 😃 ---

> [@Belgian Pie](#): > > To show the Taiwanese … BAD foreigners … be aware of bad, crazy foreigners Yeah, my wife came up today with this story too and “about us crasy foreigners”. He also told me something that this guy was walking around in a 7-11 or something, naked and drinking alcohol there (which he just took out there, of course without paying). When the police came to get him, he asked them to bring him to Japan. I just don’t get it. I guess she saw it on a different channel than which had a different version (or are there more naked Russian Americans running around on that island?) ---
