There is a van, a white van to be more specific, that I have encountered several times – especially at night. To clarify, I did not know this vehicle was a white van when I first encountered it because I did not see the vehicle, instead I heard it several times late at night. I discovered the identity of the vehicle this morning when it drove past me. Now I know what you’re wondering. How could I possibly identify this van purely by sound? I’ll tell you. A la Dukes of Hazard, this van has a highly unique horn (They must have payed a visit to car horns and more) – it’s the theme to The Godfather. The first time I heard it, I was taken aback and had to think for a while before I identified the tune. I have now heard this van several times, and it never ceases to amuse me. Ah the choices people make….
As the title may lead you to suspect, I had a wonderful theatrical moment today. I found out that my supervisor is a musical theatre enthusiast, and I got the esteemed privilege of introducing her to “Taylor the Latte Boy” after finding out that she like Kristen Chenoweth. It was definitely not something I expected to be doing in Turkey. I’ve had some interesting things happen recently.
I’ll leave you with some additional images that I’ve yet to share. Stay tuned for more updates – I’m about to run grab some dinner in a few, so I may have some more for you tonight depending on what crazy things I get myself into. Also, I'm going to share below a few phrases I've come across recently that made me snicker:
"this is an exceptionally rare example of production value elevating mediocrity" - Article on Chinese Branding regarding China Mobile
"We should not cause visual pollution by using
excess font and color." - email protocol document
