Radio Beijing has been sending language lessons our way for dog's years.....
Personally I think Chinese is a difficult language to learn. Its such a tonal language that similar sounds will mean quite different things.

I think you're right, I can speak fench and german but they are so similar to english, well english is derived from them both, that it is hardly more than practice. Learning a tonal language is very intimidating; for me it would require living there I think.

I tried, but couldn't get the hang of it. I didn't write for the free instructional materials Radio Beijing will send you, but maybe I should have.
Romance languages are easy. They're all so similar that if you know one or two you can usually figure another one out.

Who really wants to retire anyway?
And who really needs a roof over their head? We're just spoiled to expect something like that.

Chinas problems may be pretty grim as well. It is an export driven economy about to see its biggest customers go on a servere savings drive and see its holdings of US stocks, cash and bonds take a turn south.
They need to either turn themselves into an economy that can consume what it manufactures and raise general living standards or experiance what the word deflation means to an industrialised economy.

I post (troll) on a city board, sponsored by our newspaper. It’s populated by a bunch of racist ditto heads (board & city).
I used practically the same joke to piss them off. It got a lot of nasty responses.

Here is some more debt for US tax payers to pony up. Maybe we can make up the difference by selling Israel bombs.

At least you don't have to worry about Jimmy Carter becoming president.
Just Sarah Palin.
The place she was mayor of, is called Wasilla. It apparently is the meth capital of Alaska.
You should google image Wasilla.
why? the israelites would just be paying with the aid dollars already given to them by the US.

You know, McCain just doesn't look that healthy, but he could win. If he died, she'd be president.
Maybe this is the form that the Antichrist will take.

Apparently in Santa Barbara, California, they have a large parking lot in the town, where they allow middle class people who've gone bankrupt, lost their homes etc, to park their cars and sleep at night.

The problem is, that if you don't speak mandarin in the first place, you have no way of knowing what the radio program is about.

Hmm, The BBC World Service transmits in 33 languages, so I imagine Johnny Foreigner can do the same.

The signal they broadcast our way is in English. The language lessons come on about noon here, so the programming must be tailored for the US market. I figure they're just softening us up for our new Chinese overlords.

I was sort of being facetious....
As for overlords, I think the advance shock troops will be the 500,000 recent chinese immigrants who are now residing in the Vancouver area....
the DOW industrials down 370 points...everythings going to hell in a hand-basket

The 15 Million regulars the Mexicans sent up will take care of them.

It might be a near thing. The Vancouver chinese will simply drive over them in their BMWs and Mercedes, out there in the onion fields...
so what lesson do we learn here? is it the fact that every time the US govt de-regulates a major industry they fuck it up? in the long term it creates less competition, higher prices and more fraud....
