I feel like my legs are having the worst hangover EVER. It does not help that I live on the sixth floor. Going up the stairs is cake, as usual. It's while i'm going down that I feel like I am in slow motion, because I am ( Read more... )

thos pictures are GREAT!!! :) I wonder what would happen if i loaded up the nissan with recyclables like that and tried to drive in jax beach... *chuckle* i think, it'd be bad. :)

skiing is alot of fun, i don't know that i've ever been downhill skiing but i've done crosscountry. and those boots are heavy. that's just about the scariest part that those things are tethering you to those big skiis. it's easy to hurt yourself in snow fun. remember i broke a leg when i was a kid with this stuff. Good times! :)

Folks here do it with all kinds of scrap piled higher than they can reach, everything from styrofoam, cardboard, scrap metal, plastic containers, EVERYTHING and then sell it to a recycler.

When I went to Rob's house WAY out in Ga, with Lisa and Paul while I was home for the summer, I had a can to throw away and asked him where he kept is recyclables. He told me to just thow it in the regular garbage and the garbage men would sort it all out. I belived him. That's what they do in China and heck we were in Ga. Too bad Rob is not a recycler.

no go ahead, link away

Sorry but if I was going to blow up a picture of anything, it most certainly would not be one of a cross, no matter how pretty the moon is with it. Not here, not now anyway.

I told them the truth, That Jesus IS an American and all people in their right minds are Christians.

red flag

No, kidding. I said the truth, but it is kind of interesting to me that China is officially atheist, had her first unification under the Qin Dynasty in 221 BC and still so many people still associate Jesus so much with America. I mean really. Most foreigners here would love a window into such a conversation. I on the other hand usually refer the question to one that is really in China for that purpose. Western religion is not something I really like to discuss here with the locals. Mainly because it can lead to problems with authorities if taken in any type of negative context.
