Plug crimpers? RJ45 connectors? CAT5+? b/g standards? I guess I've reached that age where I'd just call some guy to come set it up while I'm watching TV. Now get off my damn lawn!!

Oldish thread it seems, but always relevant. My Chinese wife swears to Ctrip. We must have ordered tickets at least 20 times over the past years and never had any problems. Just go for e-tickets and show your passport at check-in. If you want to wait for real in hand tickets it usually takes a while, but that's supposedly the case for all the net sites. Highly recommendable.

The Secret of Monkey Island boy did I play that a lot back in the Amiga days. Jebus I am getting old :(

On an unrelated note I think China should send their warships to deal with Mr. Morgan-Sweet first before they try do deal with Somalian swashbucklers. The experience and training would be invaluable.

"Hello Walmart service desk. How can I help you? ... A bomb you say? And you want money? You know what? I make 1500 a month sitting here, I am not even allowed to go to the bathroom without telling my superior and you want me to give you x amount of cash? Here is what's going to happen. We'll clear the store and sweep for bombs. The smart money is on that there is no bomb at all. If we pay you we still have to clear the place and sweep for bombs anyway. Oh my,, you didn't really think this through did you? Say hello to the police when they knock on your door. I hear they play a funny game of duo mao mao down at the police station. Is there anything else I can do for you today? ok bye bye schmuck"

"Candidates should be under the age of 40". How typical Chinese,, looking for people with a PhD and lots of experience in the fields mentioned. I think most people get their PhDs in their thirties,, not much time left to build up field experience. It reminds me of how the Chinese employers on job application forms want to know skin colour and demands a picture. At my workplace a woman recently didn't get hired "because she was too tall". Priceless.

Went there yesterday and it totally made my week. Nice decor and friendly staff and a real salad bar. Sadly we both wanted mexican food so I can't really say much about their other courses. The food was great but just a tad spicier would have improved the dish. The best thing was that we almost had the place to ourselves and we could have a quiet conversation without shouting, spitting Chinese people in the background. I realised how much I had missed that since coming here.

We went to Chicago Coffee a couple of days ago and it was a nice experience. The place is cozy with soft comfy chairs (I realized how much I have missed one since coming here) and they have a nice little collection of English language books in the corner consisting mainly of classics and travel litterature. I was looking forward to trying their advertized tortilla bar but it wasn't up and running that evening.

Instead we went for 2 12 inch pizzas -roast chicken and pepperoni- but we quickly realized that 1 would have been enough. Those things are heavy. I am mainly into Italian style pizza but Chicago's double layered pizzas are well worth a try. Their coffee seems to be a bit on the expensive side but people say good things about it and they have got a nice selection. I wouldn't mind dropping by again some day,, hopefully when they've got the tortilla thing going. English speaking staff btw.
