I did not see the faces. I used to see faces in things a few years ago. That ability has waned. Articles of clothes are living things too.

Here's a photo of Rabbit Island just off of Oahu. The island looks like a rabbit head but it was called "Rabbit Island" because there used to be a large colony of rabbits living on that rock. Curious.

I once read that human beings are pre-disposed to "see" a face in most
anything. I know I do on the wallpaper in my bathroom when I sit on the
"john". It's basically a buncha random lines, but I tend to see a
buncha faces.

I'm sure you all wanted to know that.

Correct.

The complete list as I know it is below, although I have heard other
variations.

Western Australia - Sandgropers
Northern Territory - Top Enders
Queensland - Banana Benders
NSW - Welshies
Victoria - Cabbage Patchers
Tasmania - Apple Islanders
South Australia - Crow Eaters.

It's not about education. Your brain imprints on language as a
baby, and if your parents' language does not contain a sound,
later in life you will always have trouble with that sound.

That's why English speaking people can't pronounce the simple French
word "tu" (meaning "you"). They'll say "to" or "too".

When I lived in RI for a year, I thought the locals talked a bit
weird (not really pronouncing "R's" well). Well, right back at
me....they thought I talked weird. heheh

It's true that we duplicate the phonetics of those around us but if
one makes an effort they can make corrections... many public figures
lose their reginal accents if they so choose. Most colleges offer a
course in public speaking, an elective I chose at UCLA. One of the
first things the instructor does is to have each person read a passage
and record it... at the end of the course each person reads the same
passage and records it... a marked difference. Fact is that most
people cannot recognize their own recorded voice. What we hear while
speaking is very different from hearing our recorded speech, what
others hear. There are exercizes that a voice instructor can offer to
Orientals that will eliminate the L sound for the R sound, it works,
I'd seen it done. Most people who sing professionally have taken
voice courses to correct their speech. There are many people of all
ages whose speech is literally unintelligible, even the highly
educated... the Vet we use is impossible to understand on the phone...
probably because the animals he treats never correct him. He speaks
too fast, there are no spaces between words and his speech pattern
eliminates all punctuation, which is as important in speech as in
writing, more so in phone conversations. These days it's what I call
"Keyboard Speak", they speak as though they are sending a Text.

When we moved to Memphis I kept hearing the other kids say what sounded
like "pin". Or possibly "pan". Turns out they meant pens. To clarify,
they said "ink pens". It was the difference in pronunciation that
stumped me.

The old Hawaiians didn't care for Rs either. The Hawaiian alphabet consists only of the 5 vowels and h, k, l, m, n, p, w. 12 letters. How they were able to construct such a beautiful language out of such simple sounds is pretty amazing.

That's goofy as hell. My guitar teacher had a teacher that had a mandolin orchestra. Those guys were German - the most Caucasian people on the planet.

A mandolin orchestra sounds bad to me.

Choy sum is really easy to prepare. You just add to boiling water and cook
it for a little over 2 minutes. Remove from boiling water and cool it down
in some ice water. You can then stir fry but I didn't even do that. I made a
sauce of oyster sauce, water, shoyu, sugar, and sesame oil. I shall be
making more choy sum.

I have oyster sauce, shoyu, sugar and sesame oil ... please can you
give me the recipe and quantities?

I don't have a recipe for the sauce. There's all kinds of ways to make this up. I make mine pretty watery but you might like it a bit thicker. Just mix some oyster sauce with water until you get the consistency you want, add a small amount of shoyu and sugar and sesame. I don't think you can really mess this up. Any way you do it is going to be tasty. Heat this up in a small pan until the sugar is dissolved and pour over the choy sum.

Oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and sesame oil would work fine for a Chinese style fried rice. There's all kinds of fried rice around here. These days I'm partial to making fried rice with kim chee. It's kind of a thing around here.
