Joining the tea trade

My career as an English tutor isn't quite lucrative enough to support my extravagant lifestyle, so I sold out last week and joined the tea trade. The early 20th century tea trade, that is. In my career as assistant to a conniving British tea merchant, my main duty is telling the enemy that my boss is not available, but I also act as his intelligence officer, tea taster (haha), and muscle (haha). And I have to remember not to blink too much. Here I am with our driver.

That is the car in the background. We are not sure if it was made from scraps or if it fell through a warp hole.

This is me with one of the enemy bosses. Before he joined the tea business, he was Stephen Chow's "Uncle Tat".

BTW, this post is not late or pre-dated. I wrote it in 1913, and post-dated it for your sakes.

Dude, that's too cool.

I can't wait 'til it comes out here in theaters.

um. you should totally make sure you can keep that suit. it's pretty amazing.

Unfortunately, that great suit is not keepable. It had to be specially taken out and patched to fit me (to the extent it does fit me), but they will want to keep it for other freakishly tall foreign businessmen.

Like I said, the next time you are famous like that, you need to get better compensation than not keeping the suit.

Wait, aren't you in the Land of Suits-Made-to-Order? Maybe you should consider getting one that really fits you, just in case you should have some Special Occasion or two to wear it to... =)

I'm glad to finally see some pictures of you being famous. I still want to see the movie when it comes out on DVD, hee hee. I will count how many times you blink.

Hey, who fixes you up, do you have to dress and comb yourself or does someone else do that hairdo on you?

Eduardo says to tell you that he is happy about your acting career, and would like you to look into any available roles for him, such as maybe a Brazilian soccer star.

serapio said...

Someone else does my hair, but I do dress myself. I'm afraid there aren't many movies done here about brazilian football stars.

In addition to new accomplishments in your acting career, we heard you recently got married. Will there be a post about that?
