roddy Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:01 PM Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:01 PM You know what would be cool. If instead off everyone in Beijng buying hundreds of small firecrackers, they just clubbed together and bought one really big one . . . Quote
Guest realmayo Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:02 PM Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:02 PM and bought one really big one . . . .. and used it to take out the Chinese Space Programme?? Quote

roddy Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:10 PM Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:10 PM Wossis? An ode to the Talim River? I don't know, you step onto the balcony to watch the chaos and the time your feet are cold enough to come back . . . Quote
randall_flagg Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:10 PM Author Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:10 PM That's one weird red dress! Quote
Guest realmayo Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:10 PM Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:10 PM the subtitles for this (EDIT: actually, I guess the tune's okay) song are hard to digest ..... "the biggest square is Tiananmen Square ... " "the biggest wall is the great wall" "the best red is china red" ... "where the greatest wish is for world peace" Quote
roddy Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:10 PM Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:10 PM Oh, sorry, it's a general ode to China and World Peace. Quote
roddy Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:11 PM Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:11 PM Quick! Bow to your parents! Quote
randall_flagg Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:12 PM Author Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:12 PM 感谢我们自己。。。 I do that every day! Quote
randall_flagg Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:13 PM Author Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:13 PM Quick! Bow to your parents! Maybe I can be model of piety next year? Quote
Guest realmayo Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:15 PM Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:15 PM well, enough of this. let us know if you write it up for the Scotsman Roddy. despite the olympics, China had a tough old year of it last year, let's hope the new year is easier, despite worldwide recession etc....

randall_flagg Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:19 PM Author Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:19 PM Let's hope for a good 2009 for China (and everywhere else). But it won't be, I'm afraid. My prediction: 2009 has the potential of being a catastrophic year for China, don't want to go into detail and spoil the mood. Her blue dress is just soooo pretty (not!) Quote
roddy Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:23 PM Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:23 PM I can tell you now I won't. In the middle of an SMS frenzy, every time I look up it's another incomprehensible performance. Quote
randall_flagg Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:31 PM Author Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:31 PM Poor post midnight performers. No one is watching, everyone is outside throwing firecrackers at Roddy's window, haha. I'm in such a splendid mood! Thank you so much for the link, Roddy! Quote
roddy Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:36 PM Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:36 PM Well, judging by the post count this was less than half as interesting as the Olympics Opening Ceremony. Good fun though! Quote
randall_flagg Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:37 PM Author Report Posted January 25, 2009 at 04:37 PM I'm guessing that people are too busy sending SMS and blowing off their fingers... Quote
