All Thumbs

As a teenager, my favourite TV show was "Siskel & Ebert". Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert would debate the pros and cons of a film before declaring their ultimate rating: Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down.



Ah, if only I could review my everyday life in the same simple way....

Now I can!

This is the All-Thumbs Portable Reviewer. Thumbs Up on this side:


Thumbs Down on the other:


And here are my Woo Reviews!

The movie "Up": Thumbs Up


The movie "Fired Up": Thumbs Down


Jalepeño chips: Thumbs Up


Parking tickets: Thumbs Down


My local yarn store, "Black Sheep Yarns": Thumbs Up


The Staples store that accepted my online order for an office chair, then mistakenly delivered that chair to an Alan Wu (even though our last names are spelled differently) before forcing me to visit the store in person—twice—to receive my refund for the now out-of-stock chair: Thumbs Down


Stepping into my shot: Thumbs Down


Long-term effect of the 2010 Olympics on the Vancouver economy: undecided


Our finite existence in the infinite universe: Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down


Regular readers of the WooWork.com blog, including my girlfriend, my mom and you: Thumbs Up!


...and Happy Holidays!

Eye See 3D

After 3 weeks of steroid drops, my left eye has recovered from it's blurry situation and I can see clearly now.

The rain is gone.

Hopefully, it will be many years before I return to the eye doctor. Until then, I made this eyeclops guy for the eye clinic:


He now lives on their front desk, next to a plastic eye toy:


I love seeing in stereo vision again, and I appreciate my overall eyesight even more. To celebrate my 3D vision, I'll enjoy a 3D movie this weekend.


If you'd like to join the 3D fun, bring out your 3D glasses (I bought mine from here or you can make your own) to see the eyeclops in an eye-popping way!
