Wilbur Point Pt. 1
No, this video is not from Taiwan, but I meant to post it three weeks ago and never got around to it. Now I have. It is the introduction to a family project that began one year ago this September.
(This is a large file - approx. 77 MB - so it will take some time to buffer).

Back up to speed
I have lessened the quality of the four vlog postings from Taipei. The bad news is that the video images won't look as crisp. The good news is that each posting should play faster with fewer delays. The files are much smaller now. Let me know how it works.

Inspected, Injected, and Detected in Taiwan
I had to go for the obligatory physical today. Didn't know I needed one until after I arrived, but I guess it comes with the territory of a new job, particularly one that provides health insurance. The woman who brought me to the hospital spoke a negligible amount of English. They call her "Teacher Michelle" around here. She hustled me around the hospital through a maze of masked physicians until the journey ended with a lymph node check.
It was the quickest physical exam I've ever had. And from what they didn't tell me, I'm fine. My lungs looked good anyway, I understood that.
