I am an English teacher in Zhongshan China. I originally planned to come to China as sort of an adventure, an escape from the frustrations of American politics and a rampant predatory commercialism which is becoming more and more ingrained in daily life. Fate had other plans and three years later I am married to a beautiful and intelligent woman. Even in China I've manage to buck the system, we've recently violated the One-Child policy and have had our second daughter. Some times its not easy living in Red China but here I have found love and acceptance. And I bear no credit cards, no auto loans, no long term payments to government waste, no insurance premiums, no mock up penalties and so on. Cash is king and I earn enough kings to keep my family comfortable and happy. Life is good. Goto my 360 blog to read some of my wrtings, leave a comment. Have a good life, enjoy it
Does YA! delete and penalize for questions that are political in nature?
I was penalized for posting a question regarding China's internet censorship. Is Yahoo so deep in China's pockets that they police for them now?

I think therefore I am.
I think,
I am.
I am thinking maybe I think too much.
Does this mean therefore, that I am too much?
If I am because I think, then what I think is what I am?
If this is the case I am in for some serious trouble.
If I am what I think I am and I think I am what I am thinking I think I am then why am I thinking about thinking and not thinking about world peace solutions or what is for lunch and wow doesn’t chicken for lunch sound great? Yeah I definitely gonna have chicken, maybe I’ll hit up the KFC on second street, yeah the counter girl there is hot maybe she’ll see me for the prize I am, am I a prize, yes! You are a prize. You are a prize, I wonder what her prize is and how much does a lunch meal at KFC cost anyway and do I have enough cash and maybe I better hit the ATM before I make a fool of myself in front of the hottie counter girl, man she is pretty, I hope…
Maybe I’d better just stop thinking and start “am”ing…

14 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoIs she still the "Land of the Free"?
Patriot act stripped privacy, US government can detain and hold prisoner anyone they feel may be a threat, religious freedoms are held to secular standards, and now banks and investment companies are being "socialized"? It seems with every event the government walks further away from the American Dream. Is she still the Land of the Free, or did that nobel experiment crash along with airplanes and stock markets?
6 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoDoes anyone else think the US military is baiting Mainland China?
They announce their plan to sell Taiwan 6.5 billion dollars worth of arms and then say the sale will not alter the balance of power in the region. They claim is honors the US commitment to a strong Taiwan. Meanwhile Taiwan and China ties are improving. Do improving ties scare the US, are they trying to derail cross straits relations?
