Lantern Festival

Today is the Lantern Festival. It is believed in the Chinese lore that today's moon would be the roundest and biggest of all the full moon days all year long.

There are also many stories about this special day, mostly myths and legends but I liked this "farce" better, written by one of the more talented blogger, who have since retired. Here is the link. It was written in 2005 and I still read it every now and then. Such were the allure of this writer. Personally, I feel he is more a writer than a blogger.

If you don't understand Hokkien, a dialect of Chinese Language, probably the joke would be lost. You would probably have to think very "Chinese" too, ancient, wuxia era kind of Chinese. Otherwise, enjoy and have a good laugh or two.

Enjoy the moon tonight and probably wish upon it, who knows, it might comes true.

Happy Moon Cake / Lantern Festival to all Moon lovers....
