Mao badges at Jinan Archives Information Network
Published by kgroetsch July 11th, 2006 in Badges.
As a native English-speaker, I occasionally forget about the wealth of Cultural Revolution-era ephemera that’s out there on Chinese-language web sites. Take the above, for instance; back in 2003 — in celebration of the 110th anniversary of Mao’s birth — the folks at the Jinan Archives Information Network assembled a small collection of Chairman Mao badges. There’s no descriptive text accompanying the images, but there’s a broad range of badge types, including one that’s heart-shaped and another featuring yellow rays of sun radiating out from Mao’s image. Well worth a quick look at the very least, and a reminder not to ignore Chinese sites.

this is cool
I’ve put up quite a few badges on mt Flickr site, and also transcribed the rear of the badge in Chinese and English. This is a work in rogress, so I’ll keep adding to it from time to time.

Yuan-tsung Chen published a book recently called, “Return to Middle Kingdom”. Ms. Chen’s portraits of the historical players are unforgettable. I was particularly taken with the first appearance in the book of Mao Zedong as a lanky, thirty years old young man. A wonderful tribute.

Sorry me noob…
There was this guy see.
He wasn’t very bright and he reached his adult life without ever having learned “the facts”.
Somehow, it gets to be his wedding day.
While he is walking down the isle, his father tugs his sleeve and says,
“Son, when you get to the hotel room…Call me”
Hours later he gets to the hotel room with his beautiful blushing bride and he calls his father,
“Dad, we are the hotel, what do I do?”
“O.K. Son, listen up, take off your clothes and get in the bed, then she should take off her clothes and get in the bed, if not help her. Then either way, ah, call me”
A few moments later…
“Dad we took off our clothes and we are in the bed, what do I do?”
O.K. Son, listen up. Move real close to her and she should move real close to you, and then… Ah, call me.”
A few moments later…
“DAD! WE TOOK OFF OUR CLOTHES, GOT IN THE BED AND MOVED REAL CLOSE, WHAT DO I DO???”
“O.K. Son, Listen up, this is the most important part. Stick the long part of your body into the place where she goes to the bathroom.”
A few moments later…
“Dad, I’ve got my foot in the toilet, what do I do?”
