  1. Every once in a while, on a rare occasion, someone provides a post that injects perfect common sense into the discussion. I nominate this post as one of the Top 10. Who would waste one MINUTE wondering about 'whodunit' if they were really worried about the health of their precious little tyke? Gold Star for the Rak... I second the nomination. Call the roll.
  2. Don, you're of course free to do as you wish. I would never question your judgement. But, I for one, would hate to see CFL's relationship with either one of these gentlemen ended based solely on one bad experience. Just my two cents.
  3. You're not really saying that McDs and KFC is better for them than what the average Chinese eats are you? And btw, we invented the cigarette. While the Chinese government controls the present-day production/distribution, WE introduced the cigarette to the rest of the world, including China.
  4. I agree Lance. Judging from the amount of younger folks I saw in McDs and KFCs when I was there, we're doing a very good job of saddling the future generations with the same obesity related problems we've got here now. And what about the slow but sure poisoning-by-tobacco that we've already imposed on them?
  5. Maybe the recycle truck will pick you up and you can go through all this again.
  6. Let me add a hearty HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to all the Dads out there.
  7. Congratulations Rick! Good luck with the interview.
  8. Then the Chinese will be as overweight as Americans! Exactly. Start investing in companies that make cholesterol,hypertension,heart disease and diet drugs. As well as women's plus sizes stores. Judging from all the young people I saw in McDonalds and KFC places during my recent visits, China's gonna need a whole lot of that stuff in about 5 to 10 years.
  9. Speaking of donuts, Krispy Kreme has come to China, well Hong Kong at least. http://www.usatoday.com/money/industries/f...-hongkong_x.htm It won't be long before another US cholesterol-laden invasion of China begins.
  10. CONGRATULATIONS!! Good Luck with the interview. I for one will miss "tsap seui."
  11. The morons in Massachusetts keep voting him in, he is the poster child for term limits on both houses of congress, hey if a term limit is good enough for the president then perhaps congressmen should have a limit too. Too much time in Washington tends to cause them to loose focus on where they came from, congress was never meant to be a career. That's two bashings of a current politician. What the HELL does Ted Kennedy have to do with this thread?
  12. Cathy,I stand corrected. I mis-read the email. You're right, the 19th is Dragon Boat Festival and the 17th is Father's Day.
  13. Isn't this bashing a current politician which I believe Don recently said was a no-no?
  14. I'm guessing June 17th, since that's the day on the reminder notice that AnnieFlower just sent me.
  15. Congratulations! I hope ours goes this fast.
  16. You're taking it alot better than I'm sure I would. I'd be so busy punching walls and kicking cats I wouldn't have time to post here. I wish you the best.
  17. This may seem like the obvious, but have you called that United office to see if someone turned it in?
