WTF Wednesday- The Postage Stamp


Well, I am going to have to call it quits after this WTF posting people. This one takes the cake. There simply is no topping it. Chopstick Chatter will officially 'jump the shark' after this.


I get back to Beijing, after what one can only describe as a fabulous trip home to WI for Christmas, only to find another 'present' waiting for me. My Chinese colleagues hand me the above book.

I am used to work putting out morale boosting publications. My picture has been in several small books and magazines, but never before have I seen this.

You are looking at a commemorative book of postage stamps. They are real. For 80 cents you can mail something with my picture on it. As you can tell, my other colleagues from the English TV News Department are also featured. I know- WTF?!


Of course, the photo they chose to use of me is mid-sentence. Hold your yakety yak wisecracks, I know I talk a lot.

But before you get too excited, I do have to say, I only received one book. That means you will not be getting a greeting card with my mug on it. For this I think we all should be grateful.
