so wher ein the world are we.....

where are we?

who am i?

These are good existential questions but one s i haveno time to deal with at the present time.

Ther reason is that i am desperately trying to keep up with time and it keeps jogging on... if only i didnt smoke so much.... it would enable me to try a little harder and wouldnt make me so aware of my own mortality by slowly taking my breath away.

I´m a little lost as to the timezone i am on for this half hour

its all getting abit blurry.... i thik its currently +7GMT

where´s that?

its some parts of china.....

here´s everything i know about China.....

It is a very large country,
t is a communist state which has recently opened itself up in certain economic ways whilst still being able to determine its own destiny (in some ways)
In recent years it has gone through a perdiod of rapid industrialisation building cities, roads, links of all descriptions have been made possible with modernised airports, sea ports... we have been buying alot of stuff from them... as we ll as sending them stuff of ours to make and then send back to us.... we even send our recycling for them to recycle and send back to us to reuse... there´s something peculiar in that...

Chinese food is improperly represented in take aways and restaurants all over britain and it can be healthy, light and with little or no deep frying involved.... (take that Century Chinese)

I have seen a documentary about the way in which poor people in china are moved off their land in order that cities and towns can be built and they are then "asked" to take jobs in the new cities and towns and never asked how they feel about that....

I know that China had the olympics not so long ago.... they did very well though the opening ceremony with the tictacs on LSD was a little disconcerting......
Apparently the Chinese also hosted the Paralympic games to a high standard providing fully accessible facilities, drop curbs all over the city and generally were very nice...

I know about the whole thing with a monk sitting in front of a tank and setting fire to himself... and protests turning into Bloodbaths.... i think thats happened alot in the past. not just there but in other places.... so i might be getting them confused.
