Because of "Shi Ba Da," or the Big 18 -- China's 18th Party Congress -- I can barely send an email.
But I can still joke! Today saw a new milestone: I made a joke, in Chinese. Granted, it was a joke that landed at about a six-year-old's level, but it counts. A cab driver was charging 18 rmb for a cab ride. I said, "Shi Ba -- da!" He actually chuckled.
I'll be here all week folks.
