The Adventures of Setch Pisher. Monday, September 29, 2008. Thanks to some friends, I finally got a chance to get out of town for a little while on Sunday. I was ready to go check out a new church, the same one I didn't go to last week, when my housemate, Paul, asked if I wanted to go to Snake Village. Well, of course I want to go to Snake Village - whatever that is. We met up with Paul's friend from work, Ben, his room mate, and one of his students. This was our ride for the day. Now, when you eat snake...

The Adventures of Setch Pisher. Thursday, June 19, 2008. When I tell people I'm going to Vietnam I get either, "Wow, that's really cool." or "Why? My answer is that I've been fascinated with Asia for a long time, and I want to visit Vietnam in particular because my Dad was there for the war. (Several of the elderly folks I know seem to think the war is still going on and are concerned about me getting shot, but I try to assure them that I'm much more likely to get shot in Chicago.).

The Adventures of Setch Pisher. Saturday, April 26, 2008. I got two more shots on Wednesday. One in each cheek. Rabies and something else. I can't even keep track. (No pics of my punctured and band-aided buttocks - sorry ladies.) I've got more in three weeks. 4/16/08 (Moved from another blog). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). An Angry White Guy in Chicago.

The Adventures of Setch Pisher. Sunday, December 28, 2008. New Year's was fun. It's a bigger deal than Christmas around here. There aren't as many decorations, but there are a lot more closed businesses. As soon as we had seen the team receive the cup on TV, we went outside to watch the mayhem. All of the streets were filling up with traffic heading toward the lake at the center of town. The intersection in front of the opera house was just starting to fill up. Some lucky revelers had trucks. And when th...

The Adventures of Setch Pisher. Wednesday, June 17, 2009. I went to Vietnam to make peace with a part of my father's memory. I went there because I'd heard the word "Vietnam" all my life and I knew it as a horrible place and time that people didn't really know how to talk about. It was a story that I would catch random parts of now and then that never had a happy ending. It was the reason that Dad screamed in his sleep. Hien Sa Nguyen said. Gentle Sa from VN.

The Adventures of Setch Pisher. Friday, August 29, 2008. I love this picture. The commie-tubbies. It's one of the many murals on the walls of the courtyard at the kindergarten where I teach a couple of days a week. I took over for my former room mate Ollie, who's in this next pic. It's pretty fun because it's easy to give into the mayhem. I help teach the ABC's and names of fruits, vehicles, and family members etc. And then sometimes I just let them climb on me. I think all kids should be retarded. T...

The Adventures of Setch Pisher. Sunday, February 1, 2009. Tet is Vietnam's version of the Chinese new year. It's lunar new year's eve and the few days around it. I'll have a post about that later. What it meant for me was that everything was shut down and it was a good time to get out of town. This was the first 7-11 that I saw. I'm not exaggerating at all when I say that I think I went into a dozen 7-11's that day. Not to buy anything, just to soak up a little A/C, look at all the stuff I COULD buy,...
