Went to dinner at Greenery Cafe the other day. Saw a party of 10 at another large table. After they were done eating all 10 of them were playing with their phones and not a single person was speaking to another at the table. So ridiculous, I took a picture of them and they all happily smiled not realizing how stupid they all looked to me.
This morning, there was a mother and her 14 y/o son at the basketball court in our residential quarter. They were playing badmington together. However, her son had a racket in one hand and phone in the other. What a fool (both of them).
After playing badmington, they started jogging around the perimeter of the court. Again, the kid running and looking at phone at the same time. Finally, the mother started wrestling the phone out of the kids hand at which time I applauded her.
Can't even count the times I have seen parents give their kids a phone to play with so they will not be bothered. As young as 6 months old, as though it was a toy or a rattle or pacifier.
When I see women in the bus who nearly falls down because they can not hold on while the bus is braking because they have a bag in one hand and a phone in the other - Soooo stupid. Saw a woman actually fall down just the other day - Haha! Shame did not break her neck.
What does all this have to do with wechat - just another tool for the fools!
Every person now carries the largest library in the world in their pocket or bag but 95% of them just use it for entertainment purposes rather than actually learning something. The more technologu they have the more ignorant they become. Makes them easier to control - Haha! Stupid slaves.

China's national meat scandal hits Yunnan
Posted byJust yesterday I watched something about this on the bus. The Customs folks stopped and confiscated a few big trucks on the road from Puer. The trucks were not refridgerated so this is one of the cause of the problems. So if the meat did make it in to its final destination it had to be repacked and refrozen after the long trip. Perhaps the meat in the center of the truck can keep but surely not the meat on top or the sides.

Around Town: Zhaozong Reservoir
Posted bySince I live on Zhao Zong Road I decided to pay this reservoir a visit via bus #7 which is 2 stops from my home.
The first thing I noticed is that there is plenty of constructuion going on - a new retaining wall is being built as well as a brand new pumping faciltiy with several large pipes to divert the water.
At the time this article was written, this reservoir may have just been a pond but that is no longer the case. "There are no pumping facilities or drains at Zhaozong Reservoir — it is simply a large pond".
The construction workers said that because water is such a precious commodity in Kunming every drop will be put to use in the near future.
Bus #7 to the Zhao Zong Yi Zu Cun Kou Bus Stop. Turn left when you see the Long Hua Temple a few meters before the main entrance to Sen Lin Hu = Forest Lake = 森林湖.
There were at least 20 redundant signs on the walking trail every 10 meters that clearly read - NO SWIMMING!
