In Turkey, oil wresting is a totally legit sport between men. The rules are simple:
1 2
3 4
1. Get oiled up with lots of olive oil.
2. What happened after you got properly oiled up.
3. Wrestling in oil.
4. What it looks like when you have won.
It seems that Turkey is much of a destination for this year’s world tour. Yes indeed. SML needs to go and do some sports photography once in a while.

Ernie: Hey look there are some red stripes which matches my shirt, let’s go and take some photos!
Bert: Oh you are right it does, but did you know that it actually means something.
Ernie: Really? What does it mean?
Bert: It is an equal sign. It stands for equality—marriage equality to be exact.
Ernie: Marriage equality? I thought that everyone can get married as long as they love each other.
Bert: Well, apparently not—some gay people in America cannot because some people think that it is not sanctioned by religions.
Ernie: That makes no sense! We should support it! We have been married for so long. We should show them what love is like!

At first I did not notice the humanoid in red jeans with a scruffy beard. I was all too focused on the installation hanging from the ceiling made with mirrors and wires.
But the sculpture was small—so small that I moved closed enough to examine further. But then within my wide angle lens came a pretty face who asked if I am interested in the work.
There is quite a bit of charm in finding a well-dressed, good-looking, soft-spoken, and intellectual cuteness within all the insanity at an art fair. I supposed this is why girls love going to galleries?
I never exchanged contact information with him. But as you can see, I do know where he works now, so it should not be too hard for me to locate him in the future. Perhaps when I am in Denmark for vacation I will give him a hola — after all, they do show truly brilliant works.

The last I saw Bert + Ernie was when I was still living in New York. When I decided to part with them during my international move to Hong Kong, they have decided to go visit Los Angeles for a year. Thankfully, after a year of traveling arrangement logistics with my sister in LA, they have safely arrived in Hong Kong.
The year alone and away from SML has been well to B+E — as now even Bert is starting to have a smile. Here they were seen holding hands during sunset on some rocks at the beach of Wu Kai Sha, pondering on thoughts that they have shared for so many years.
