Well I'm Chinese Canadian, and I look like some famous guy from Hong Kong. Lots of people have said the same thing, and I never thought there was a need to be offended. I look Chinese, and that's because my parents are from Hong Kong. Well actually, I apparently look Korean. Some people say Japanese, but whatever. It's what people see. Being born in Canada doesn't change the fact that I look like a group of people half-way across the world.

It's not exactly what I'd consider racist, but I guess some people have a different definition of the term.

Don't take this the wrong way but I thought you were Japanese... I used to think I could tell the various Asian countries apart by looks. I had Japanese-American neighbours. The daughter was purty cute too.

You mean there are Asians in Canada? I only thought us Asians lived in the Bay Area and LA, and NYC. ;)

Cool! Radio is a lot of fun I think. If it wasn't so much fun I'd have quite a long time ago. I mainly do it as a hobby more or less :)

Are you ham? What is your callsign? I have been licensed since 2001 and have really enjoyed the hobby. Here is a photo of me operating at NX5M's mega-Texas contest station during the 2008 Texas QSO Party

My dad had a ham, but I actually work at a studio (sry for the disappointment). It doesn't pay much at all, but I have loads of fun and it's a pretty cool job to have.
