I bounce back and forth between Shanghai and Beijing. In my mind, these two cities have fused into one, connected by one long metro line.

Appropriate prizes for Narsfweasels 1000th comment:

1) 1000 hand-written pieces of hate-mail from detractors. Might have trouble limiting to only 1000 pieces. Prioritise by quality of threat, spelling, punctuation, written in blood etc.

2) 1000 pieces of fan mail from... Yeah, that's not gonna happen.

3) Narsfweasels gives out an award at the Reader's Choice Awards. Later found dead in an alley.

4) Free hotel stay, taking away needless pressure of forking out for YET ANOTHER anniversary surprise for loveless marriage.

Hey Lee~~ I won the caption contest last week- do you know how I can claim my prize? Thanks!

Contest module has kindly refrained from sending me updates. Otherwise, the recent (fun + funny!) Morton Steak house naming contest would have send many many useless emails to my inbox. :) If it is not possible to selectively (+ easily for end-user) turn on/off notifications, then please consider putting the Caption Contest back in win stuff? Cheers. :)

Hi Lee, the issue I see, is that I don't want to be notified/email(spam) of all the wall posts for that Caption Contest!! Which is the default feature for the "Blog" stuff. I don't mind being informed for the Blog comments that I am in "conversation" with. But for "WinStuff", I just want to have fun... and if I am free, I will go visit that particular contest and laugh at some of the brilliant/creative answers. :) Is there a way to turn off (selectively) the "inform by email" (if another person post entry, as distinct from comments)?

@leemack the chef was angry because we had a birthday cake from outside. He came outside after we had paid and left, he was shouting and ran up to me, scratched my face and hit me in the side of the head then pushed one of the girls in my group. At no point did I provoke him. In the restaurant with the police there he threatened to find me. This is the sort of man that should be in jail in any country.

White Rabbit is pretty much your only bet. China Doll 3.3 is a good option as well, but not sure if they've decided on a music policy yet. Klubb Rouge is pretty hous-y. Go to Gongti Xilu clubs for the utter hilarity of it.

No, but I remember when I was in college and I thought Michael Stipe looked like he was about 150 years old.
