We hope that the Living in Taiwan forum will be of value to you and others. To ensure this, please note:
It is best to capitalize topics and to avoid vague titles. “Hi, I’m new” and “Help please” are examples of bad titles.
Before posting, please check the FAQ thread, and – more importantly – use the search function to ensure that your topic has not been discussed before and that there is not an existing thread you could update with your contribution.
While Living in Taiwan is a busy, wide-ranging forum, there are other specific forums for relationships, teaching, business, legal issues, animals, food, events, travel, restaurants, and so on. Check the Forumosa menu to find the most appropriate place for your post.
While it is preferable to post questions dealing with dissimilar topics in separate threads (“How Much for an Apartment in Tianmu?”, “Are There Many Foreigners in Tianmu?”), if you are a new arrival, it is possible to present numerous questions in one post, but realize that your thread will then, after two weeks, be merged into the New to Taiwan: Some Questions thread.

If any new arrival needs assistance in Taipei, I can provide it in exchange for Star Trek or Supernatural (the TV series) stuff or other sci-fi materials. Let me know what help you need by PM, along with what you have to offer in return. And yes, I am serious.

Icon wants to put an ice pack on her back. Is that unhealthy?

So, as you guys enjoy shorter hemlines and other summer environmental advantages, I am very amused by the sudden influx of foreign tourists and assorted summer visitors. The MRT is the ideal place to enjoy them in an inconspicuous manner. Latest finds: an Air Force guy, like 2 meters tall, complete with full muscles, shoulders wide as the MRT doors. A couple of guys, one blonde and cute as pie, other looked like a male model, chiseled chin and all. 
In the meantime, I am running 3 fans at the office. Sorry about my carbon footprint, but this heat is ridiculous.

What heat? It's not bad out on the streets of Xindian today. Maybe in town it's worse.

I guess your place doesn't have good air con. Mine's nice and comfortable. Sorry to hear that. It's awful when it's too hot to work. Maybe put some ice in front of your fans, that's supposed to work.
