  • As usual, I envy your photographic skills :-)

      *blush* Thanks, but the reality is that I have no skills whatsoever. I blame any and all photographic successes (and failures) on the camera and lens.

      Replied to the wrong post... Its been a loooong day.

  • You went to China!?!?!

    You lucky sonofabitch!

    Know any Mandarin to use while there? I'm taking an 'Intro to Mandarin' at Harvard Extension and it's knocking me on my ass. But by June I should be able to communicate the basics (bathroom, cab, addresses, basic ordering of food, etc).

      It was a more difficult trip than I imagined it would be. It looks like I'll be going back sometime in the not too distant future though, so now I know how to do it a little better. It is absolutely an experience I highly recommend though.

      As to language, I only really know how to say thank you. The funny thing about the Chengdu is that the dialect *sounded* different from the Mandarin that I am used to, which made it even harder for me.

Any program which runs right is obsolete.
