"Where the hell have you been?"
Thursday, May 01, 2008
Got an email over the last two weeks asking that question. I'll have more later today, including a post about the Ft. Bragg barracks scandal.
In my defense, I did leave you all a note saying I'd be out of contact for awhile. Here is where I was:
Photo by TJ. I'm at the mid-point on the Great Wall of China (Badaling section). I am tired of being harassed by vendors who all claim "Best Price!" and whip out their calculators like I care about their wares and try to charge me $150 for a $1.50 watch. This is the "Don't @#$% with me" look that drove most of them away. Also, note the smog.
Photo by TJ. I was presenting a recommendation for the Shanghai Futures Exchange last Friday. I am pointing at the club at the Shangri-La across the street...it's where I was headed after work.
More photos later...
