空調, 冷氣, Air conditioning, AC, or God's saving grace...no matter what it's called it's the likely the best invention ever. Today at lunch it felt super hot so I checked the weather when I came to my computer. It was 95 degrees with 84% humidity. According to weather.com that made it feel like 118 degrees. So it was great to come into a nice AC-ed office. When I go home, however, I try to save on the electric bill (damn right! I paid a big $3 last month in power bills, which is low enough to impress my landlord) so needless to say my place is uber hot. That's why I try and go to coffee shops all the time to use their AC. So no matter how you look at it AC just may be the best thing ever.
I also found out today that Taiwan has its own date. Yes, that's right its own date. I kept seeing the year 97 posted around town and thought it was left over from 1997 for some reason. Turns out, when the Nationalist party came to power they started the calendar over from the year 0. Why do this you may ask? I have no idea. But this just means I'm Scrivens-deep into the culture and history of this place.
