My cousin Eminem sends me a link to show what the World Cup finale did to Toronto.
It rocked it!
People took over the streets celebrating Spain’s victory.

I wish I could have been there for the finale, despite it being such a SNOOZE of a game.
However, there was another article at the bottom of that blog link that PEAKED MY INTEREST:
POLICE REVEAL IDENTITY OF MAN SHOT IN CHINATOWN RESTAURANT
Apparently, this Vietnamese kid, 17 years old, was GUNNED DOWN at THE SAME restaurant that I ate at not too long ago. Dude was shot in the head and the gunman walked out the back door.
Sadly, this kind of violence is not actually surprising. Although I consider Toronto to be a pretty safe LARGE city, the kind of violence that occurs in Chinatown is not random but rivalries that young kids have with each other.
It’s probable that this kid had a rivalry with another group of friends, they came looking for him and sadly found him. Often, the violence usually starts after some heavy drinking has occurred and if it isn’t settled that night, there will be payback later.
While living in Toronto, I have been witness to fights before but luckily they were never anything serious or too bad. Although I have heard many crazy stories where things turn ugly, knives are drawn and broken beer bottles are used as weapons, and people are seriously injured. Alot of Asian clubs now have bouncers (and sometimes the Toronto police) that will pat EVERYONE down for weapons…women included because dudes will give their guns/knives to their girls to carry for them.
YEAH, SHE CRAZY!
I don’t know if I mentioned that my aunt has a restaurant/bar and when people drink, they just do stupid things. So, you have to be quick to react and smart when the SHIT HITS THE ROOF. Remember how I told you could care less that people think she’s crazy? Here’s an example of how she uses it to her advantage:
Many years ago, there was a large group of guys drinking heavily, singing karoake. (Asians LOVE karaoke.) at my aunt’s place. A fight ensues and one of the guys goes to the back of the kitchen and grabs a knife. My aunt, seeing that this could turn really UGLY and in order to prevent things for getting worse and ESCALATING, starts to throw beer bottle after beer bottle onto the floor, shattering them into a million pieces. Then she takes the entire table (which is FULL of glasses, drinks, beer bottles, food, etc.), and FLIPS it over onto the floor…screaming like a madwoman , cursing in Vietnamese “Everybody out!”. I guess you could say Queen literally FLIPS her SHIZ.
Of course, everyone is shocked because she really does look insane breaking all her stuff. This is DEFLECTION people. To avoid people getting hurt and matters getting worse, all the attention was now focused on her. Laughing as she’s telling me this story, she tells me that she kicks everyone out, locks the door and cleans up happily. It’s just another day of business. LOL
Everyone loves my aunt because she’s super giving, forgiving, and caring. However, don’t mess with Queenie!
