And don't forget your video! VHS tape, NTSC format!

I just heard from a friend who is in Guangzhou to get I have never before seen such a collection of scum bags as I saw at the Guangzhou train station. It appeared 25% of the people milling around were waiting for an easy score. It's definately a place to avoid.
If you liked the train station you'll
the circus outside the USA consulate.No matter what the color of her slip after the interview, have her keep it hidden from view and both of you should be poker-faced until you are well away from the consulate!
Even if you feel a murderous rage turning your vision red. (Bad memories about my ordeal).

I was wondering just how many photos do you all think is really needed as proof?
Too many pictures is almost enough. Don't just include the good pictures, include ALL the pictures. The VO is not going to critique your skill with the camera. Don't waste your time with loads of professional studio shots, a few (of the wedding day) should do; have loads of "out-and-about" shots.
I sent her in with a few dozen photographs, and they did not look at any of them.

They did not match the drapes... but I think the point was , it really doesn't matter to them the way it does in the US...
Ahem, David-- Not quite.
USA. Un-natural blondes. Natural color elsewhere. Get it? B)
My point being, that based on my experience with my wife, and other women I deal with in China, aside from the obvious (language, hair color) there is about as much difference between them and women in the USA as there is difference between women from The Bronx and Irvine-- that is, not much.
As I have written before, if you go to China looking for some exotic Eastern bride, you are likely to find exactly what you deserve.
-
Could you tell me in your opinion what's the difference between chinese girls and the US girls?
Gather 'round you beardless youth, and still your voices so that your ears may be filled with my words of wisdom:
There are only 2 key differences between the women in these two great nations:
1- The women in China speak English as a second language, while the women in the USA speak English as a first language.
2- In the USA you are far more likely to find that the carpet does not match the drapes.

Maybe I was thinking my problems would go away with an Asian woman, that is probably not very intelligent.
Must resist temptation to laugh... gonna burst... milk starting to shoot out of nose... must run outside before guffawing commences...
-
If I could have only spoken to this woman... you get the idea.
Yes, I do. But there are men with fully automatic assault rifles nearby, and the clinic on Shamain island is not the best place to head to in case of high-velocity lead poisoning.

Or... perhaps the old VCR at the consulate is broken. We know for a fact that they don't have equipment to view VCD or DVD (this, in southern China, DVD/VCD player production capital of the planet).

Yes, Moon Carol Cafe. He was forced to jump through every hoop ever heard of then jump through a few more no one else ever had to. He was severely screwed but finally won in the end.
That would be me.
By the way if anyone cares... I got my drivers license back. They gave it to my wife when they gave her the visa.

I have never noticed any particular bias stateside. For the newer members present, I am a "Son of Ham" and so perhaps our pairing is seen as a statistical oddity instead of me having yellow fever. My Taiwanese/HK friends don't seem to have an opinion either way on the matter.

It is a black skin chicken.
Ahem. We prefer the term "Afro-American" chicken.
Is it really American?
Could it be Afro-Asian chicken?
"Chicken of color".
NAACP (National Organization for the Advancement of Colored Poultry).
Pity my wife does not think I'm half as funny as I think I am

Yeah, what oregonkml said.

The Chinese gov extradited someone back to Pakistan and the e-mail was stating that there could be a terrorist group retaliation because of the extradition.
Heh. Oh me oh my. Osama B and the Al Q are going to fling poo at the folks who'd like to invade Taiwan... just because?
They would do well to remember that China has a surplus of young males.

more fertilizer for the farmers
What are these farmers growing?
I'd like to avoid it! -
I will say that I am not a ABC, if I was, then I some of my stress would not be as large. I could meld in with the crowd and would not fear for her safety if people knew she married me. We go to great lengths to make sure people don't see me go into her parents house.
Fear for her safety? Because people know she's married to a roundeye? Why? Do you know something you would like to share with the rest of the class?

Happy happy, joy joy!

Sorry 'bout that. Next time only two burritos for me.
-
I miss a good American style breakfast the most, eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, pancakes, etc.
I've said it before and I'll say it again:
Broccoli-- It's what's for breakfast!

I have not had the best of experiences with China Southern in my two trips to China.
Really? I don't doubt what you say, however the only bad experiences I have had when flying to China are when I was NOT on a CS flight.
Oh well. Two more flights to go...
-
I have to support that observation that we are much "larger" in the waist than in the East.
This is not meant as a jab against anyone here, surely I am not the only gentleman who finds Chinese-sized XXL shirts are still a bit snug around the belly? Heaven help me if I ever tried to buy a pair of pants!

While in China I miss:
-Mrs. Fields chocolate chip cookies
-Root beer floats (vanilla ice cream, ice cubes, and club soda is not a root beer float!)
-Boba (known to the heathens as bubble tea)
-Decent coffehouses. Not Starbucks, the Seattle-style holes-in-the-wall
-And speaking of holes-in-the-wall... Mexican food!
I live in the San Gabriel Valley, so I'd like to think I know what I'm talking about when I say that in general, "Chinese" food in the SGV tastes better than "Chinese" food in China. Even Blue & White, which my wife thinks is the donkeys danglies for a quick lunchtime meal, has food that while not bad, is just bland.

She should be able to buy a one-way ticket to anywhere. They won't let her check in unless she can show a valid visa. to her destination.
I bought my wife a one-way ticket here in the USA and mailed it to her. My round-trip ticket is $80 cheaper than her one-way ticket.
-
Surely what will hit my wife first upon arriving at the airport is that Americans in general are...
Fat.
And I'm not talking height, I'm talking about waistline circumference. I still recall during my first trip to HK and China the near absence of anyone who I would call even slightly chubby.
where's the outrage?

Looks like I have a bit of catching up to do.
