"Slav" restaurant? First time I ever heard that term. Lumping everything from Montenegro to St. Petersburg together is about like talking of "Latin" cuisine and tossing in Madrid to Milan to Bucharest to Le Havre. Why not be more precise and call it food of "what was once Russia." That way you get to squeeze in the Ukraine and remain historically accurate. If anyone gets bent out of shape, he's been tippling the vodka and is looking for trouble anyway.

Did you mean 'from Milan to Minsk'? Asking for my friend George.

The internet puts the entire range of literature and science, old and new, at one's fingertips and you have naught better to do than tag along with a kuai di guy? The driver is 1) making a living; 2) probably daydreaming about his planned off hours. You? You're getting a vicarious jolt out of, as it were, the driver's leftover life. That's kind of like a vampire that chooses to feed off of a stray dog's pups. Bon appetit, there.

The driver is 1) making a living; 2) probably daydreaming about his planned off hours.

3) putting the lives of every pedestrian he encounters in jeopardy.

FIFY.

No need for nightclubs for dancing just been to the Sculpture Park earlier this evening must have been six different groups dancing throughtout the park.Seen this in other places throughout the city Wanfujing,Yuanyuantan Park,Olympic park also probably many other places throughout the city.

Dancing tends to be the swaying bridge between drinks and sex. Not my style, exactly. But dancing in the park rarely seems to drift off that direction.

Well said.. ROFL

Pray tell, how is destroying useful things people like, "progress." Financially-driven change for the sake of change is rather the opposite of "progress."

As such, the Games are recruiting a large number of volunteers necessary

I am literally on the edge of my literal seat wondering about the color schemes of the shirts that the volunteers will literally wear. I literally cannot wait to find out.
