When I was little, I loved watching America's Funniest Home Videos.
First off, touche, Dusty, touche. I wish I knew how to put that little accent aigu (is that what we call it?) mark over the e, but alas, we have to make do. We're under a whole different political system and can't just go around adding accent marks over letters.
Now for a little mid-summer Hot or Not of Ningxia:
What's Hot: Pretty much everything. The food. The climate. The temperature in which they serve the water.
What's Not: The people. And staying cool, like using electric fans or AC. Not even in cars. Or houses with AC installed.
What's Hot: Lamb. Mosquito bites. Parasols. They love their parasols.
What's Not: Tans. Privacy. Flossing. Have yet to see floss other than my own, which I don't mind admitting, I don't use enough anyway.
What's Hot: Not owning one's car or driving, but having drivers or ordering taxis. (I could get used to this...) Fine, they also walk or take buses, but I prefer taxis. It's 15 cents per kilometer, with a $0.65 minimum.
What's Not: High speed internet access. Oh, how I miss thee!
By the by, there's this TV show called My Own Swordsmen, the only half decent sitcom I've seen here, and I'm pretty much addicted. They play reruns of it more often than Friends and Simpsons reruns combined in the States. It's not great, but beggars can't be choosers, especially when it comes to Swordsmen.
