nnoble you are even weirder than I am.
Hate that reaper.
Peter: no point in giving up.
OK, but it's something else again to do nothing. But I understand the placebo effect too, and it is to be avoided. Feeling good about yourself is fine, but it doesn't mean you are a 'good person', vis-a-vis anybody else. Everybody is part of the cosmix, and the cosmix obviously isn't what it ought to be.
Sorry, I was trying for too much wisdom there.
misfit, you got a point.
@Napoleon: "Mogabe had done a lot of good, but..." then, yep. Makes me think of Qadhafi in Libya.
Suggest he go to an ordinary pre-school here, his best chance to learn Chinese.
No results found.
Not quite what you'd call a jumping place, but not bad at all for rather standard US-type meals, not overly expensive, and with a really good salad bar that's cheap, or free with most dinner dishes after 5:30PM. You can get a bottle of beer or even wine if you really want to, but I've never seen anybody do it - maybe that's just to take out. Chinese Christian run, and they hire people with physical disadvantages, who are pleasant and helpful. Frequented by foreign (mostly North American) Christians and Chinese Christians - was started by a Canadian couple associated with Bless China (previously, Project Grace), who are no longer here, but no religious pressure or any of that. Steaks are nothing special, and I avoid the Korean dishes, which I've had a few times but which did not impress me.
As a shop and bakery, it's very good bread at reasonable prices, of various kinds (Y18 for a good multigrain loaf that certainly weighs well over a pound. Other stuff too, like granola and oatmeal that is local, as well as imported things, including American cornflakes and so forth, which some people seem to require.
Large portions, seriously so with the pizza, which is Brooklyn/American style, I guess. Convivial, conversational, good place to drink with good folks on both sides of the bar, especially after about 9PM.
Too bourgeois.
Really good pizza and steaks. The wine machine fuddles me when I'm a bit fuddled, & seems unnecessary. Good folks on both sides of the bar.
Ain't no flies on Salvador's.
A look at Yunnan's evolving anti-drug strategy
Posted byDon't quite understand - do you want the state to make/keep some, or all, of these drugs illegal? If so, note how legalization of alcohol in the US, after 10 years of prohibition, drove gangsters out of the illegal booze industry. Seems to me legalization of pot in some US states is likely to do the same with the illegal marijuana industry. What would happen to the gangsters' profits in dealing other (now illegal) drugs if they were made legal?
I'm not advocating anything concerning the drugs in the article, just asking your opinion.

Posted byRight - so you're saying at least some of these drugs should be made legal, like alcohol and tobacco are? If so I've been partially misunderstanding you.

Posted byPlus cigarette smoking is a lot more likely to give you lung cancer than marijuana smoking does - marijuana smoking can give you bronchial irritations, tho, if you over do it.

Posted by@vicar: And any fool who smokes both tobacco and weed knows clearly that it's nicotine that is the really addictive drug.
