Yes, that's right. They finally found out that I am, in fact, from the middle of the arctic circle, which is why I am so cold and humourless, so they are sending me back. My navy ship leaves in three hours, and I am typing this in chains on deck.

Seriously? Okay, but serious is boring.

I am going away to China for two weeks, starting Friday. I come back on the 4th of August. So if there are any IWers in China, come say Hi! I don't bite. Only on request now.
Keep safe while I'm gone!
Cheers
DS

Whoa, now that's a place i'd like to visit too someday. Have fun on your trip. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yeah, Good Luck. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hope you have a great two weeks, DS. [img]smile.gif[/img]

WinterWolf would be the one to ask for tourist/travel tips if you're heading to Shanghai. ;) *Ed: At least, i think it's Shanghai.. [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

Have a good trip and tell us about it when you get back!

Have fun, and remember, don't walk around pretending to speak Chinese, you might really say something, and it might be something not nice...I heard that from a Chinese comedian once, on Comedy Central...seems to be sound advice.

hmmm is that a superiority or inferiority complex. :D ;) Do you think the forums won't survive without you or are you afraid no one will notice your absence? [img]tongue.gif[/img] :D

Seriously, have fun! Hope to see you back soon.

Don't let the door hit you where the Good Lord split you! and have a good trip.

Take it easy DS, travel safe. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I was afriad noone would notice I was gone, yes. Becasue I am easy to miss.

ROTF. Didn't see that coming!

You know they have internet in China, yes?.. ;)

Don't forget to buy me something when you are there. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

So.. How was it, DS?..

He's probably been eaten by carnivorous rice.

Who?

Who? </font>[/QUOTE]he. <font color=red>HE</font>

Oh dear... [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Dead people are genderless.

I think you forgot a smiley there, Bithron. ;)

We had an IWer from China long ago...250.

Yeah, to be a true Bitron post it must include at least 3 smileys... :D [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Who? </font>[/QUOTE]he. <font color=red>HE</font> </font>[/QUOTE]Both you and Iron greasel are looking for a ferret down your pants, aren't you? I can make that happen.
And not carnivourous rice I am afraid. It was bugspray.

Bugspray? [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img] Dare i ask?...

...I dare. There must be a funny story in there somewhere. Do tell. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I have recently ascended to a higher plane of existence and slight biological differences have lost all their significance to me.

Yes, but they are quite important to me I'm afraid.
And yes, you may ask. On the plane back, tere was an announcment in cxhinese, and a woman walked down teh isle offering tissues. All teh cinese tok them and held them over their mouths, but the rest of us didn't. And then teh staff walked along spraying bug spray, choking anyone whithout a tissue.

The fact that everyone who knew what was being said decided to cover their faces wasn't enough of a warning? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

When the world of flesh is beneath you even creatures mysterious or magical will fall!

Irenicus has entered teh building.
And teh chinese did a lot of stuff I don't understand. Like have beer festivals outside our hotel.

Better than getting choked, right? :D [img]smile.gif[/img] ;)

Beer festivals outside your hotel? What's so hard to understand about that? I find it more difficult to understand why beer festivals shouldn't be held outside any hotel i happen to stay at... :D

Btw Dragonshadow, While staying in the hotel did you watch the advertisements on TV? It's great isn't? They have all sort of advertisement, from lotions that can enlarge breasts to clinics that can cure any illnesses.

Yeah, reminds me of teh email I got asking me if I wanted a heart transplant... taht HAD to be chinese.
