I was once addicted to a wacky sandwich I invented. Fermented Japanese soy beans and pastrami served in toasted rye. Yummmm

December 2, 2008 at 5:01 AMDo they not charge for plastic bags in the States and Europe? Or some stores use brown paper bags.

Thanks a lot for pointing out the problems. We'll get them fixed as soon as we get to work tomorrow.

December 1, 2008 at 3:35 AMOn Thanksgiving last week, I went to an American eatery in the remote outskirts of Shanghai. For most of the car ride, the surroundings were rough and dirty industrial remnants waiting to be redeveloped. Then Eureka! We arrived in a suburb full of lavish villas with a town center completed with Western amenities. That's one kind of life for foreigners in China.

Breaking down the surname isn't always based on radicals. Very often, it's based on a character (or part of one) which makes up the surname. And very often, we choose the more poetic or memorable way to break down the surname. For example, it makes sense to say 女羊姜, but it's certainly more poetic to say 美女姜。

不好意思，现在才回答你。“顶呱呱”不是上海话。“Ya ya wu"倒是，意思是乱七八糟，没水准，算是“顶呱呱”的反义词吧。
