scaleo86,

Yeah."Wimp lo" is a character in a movie called "kung pow" which is a very funny kung fu spoof.He is trained wrong on purpose for a joke.

I thought Chinese people were happy to ask about/discuss age directly [as they respect age],and that this was a trick Westerners [who worship youth] resorted to.

No,she just uses a hair straightener so it doesn't trip her up while walking sideways [which could make her lame]...

Ken,

Do the "no walking on the grass" signs make you miss the green green grass of home ?
