Thanks for the update.
Sounds like a happy ending for a good story! A rare thing in China.
"Sounds like a happy ending for a good story! A rare thing in China."
Truer words were never spoken. I've learned that Chinese people don't handle wealth well. The nouveau riche I met in China were the most profoundly obnoxious people I've ever met, and the farmer was no exception. He was so jaded he wouldn't even look up at those whose books he was signing.
I digress-
but I'm confused at the relatively large numbers of people who jump down your throat simply for sharing your opinions. It's weird, like that Taiwanese guy with a chip on his shoulder the size of a sequoia. Living in China, it's good for all of us to hear your views firsthand, and it's strange to see so many on FR who go beyond playing devil's advocate with you. Do your best to pay them no heed.
I can relate. There were a few times some posters found out that I am a Mormon, and their reactions were almost unprintable. It's amazing how much terror and havoc one can wreak simply by uttering the dreaded M-word. It reminds me of the good ol' missionary days in Hong Kong.
Okay, overshare, I know. Have a good one. Feel free to stop by my newly updated profile anytime.
