This is funny.. - I'm very attracted to both of you, and both of your Moms almost became Nuns, but rebelled........

I think I'm gonna enroll in a convent..!

Then maybe I can lead the two of you astray.......

I don't stand in lines.

I barge my way to the front myself - I haven't inherited that English habit of 'queuing' hahahaha HK Chinese are notorious for shoving their way around - ask Debbie - hahaha :banana

Speaking of shoving.....

I once saw a documentary about Tokyo - apparently they have "Shovers" there to jam-pack people onto the subway......

I saw a clip of it... - these guys actually Push people in.....

We used to have them here too at rush hour - now no need cause of SARS....

I find that astounding...that population density can be so high...

Canada is a huge country with a very low population density.. - clean air, clean water, strange musicians....

And people don't have to shove on the subway.....(We call it the Metro here.... - like they do in Paris..)

Do you live in the French speaking part? Is that why? Actually we call our train MTR or KCR depending which line you are on!!! hahahahaha

Well, I live in Montreal, which is primarily French......

What does MTR and KCR stand for......?

In London they call their Subway "The Tube"..our lead singer has spent some time there, and has a lot of funny stories about England..

Silly Brits..

The MTR stands for Mass Transit Railway; KCR stands for Kowloon Canton Railway.

They used to have a "pusher" hahaha to shove people in trains, like japan. I've switched to riding the bus to work so havent used the MTR in a while.

I think I've learned how to get in the door any place quite well from my fellow HKers. Its luck that I'm taller and bigger than most. Thats not saying much cause HKers are TINY. But greater height has its advantages yehehehehe.

You should see how dense this place is My God. In crowded places you cannot walk freely but have to dodge in and out of people, and single file. I call it the HK Shuffle.

Hokay, gym now, have a great day all!

Will you come to Canada with Debbie......?

We'll all go horse-back riding together......

Is that you on the horse?

I thought Vancouver was a great town. I hooked up with a female musician whom I knew from indiegrrrl.com - She has a band called "Hector" - you ever heard of them? She took me out. We had a great time. wheeeeeeeeeeeeee
