Asia Pacific - September 2007

A little girl goes to the barber shop with her father. She stands next to the barber chair, while her dad gets his hair cut, eating a snack cake. The barber says to her , "Sweetheart, you're gonna get hair on your Twinkie". She says, "Yes, and I'm gonna get boobs, too".

Kai Tak was a single runway International Airport and was regarded as the most challenging, the most difficult, the most spectacular, one of the most dramatic and one of the most dangerous in the world specially when landing on runway 13 rather than landing on runway 31.

I know that Japan has quite a large population for a country of it's size but i was just wondering are all the houses small? Would you find anyone who owns a mansion with a swimming pool or even a four bedroom house with a garden? Or does everyone just cram into small apartments and homes? I'm sure there has to be some spacious homes there? Does anyone know?

When love comes in
And takes you for a spin
Ooh la la la
C'est magnifique

When every night your loved one holds you tight
Oh la la la
C'est magnifique

The last 48 hours have been like a dream but it went by so quickly. Still, I'm so glad it happened. It feels really great to be with all the special people you love when you celebrate a milestone birthday. I just did.

If words could make wishes come true
Id save every day like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you --- from Jim Croce's Time in a Bottle

To me, although Im not from Hong Kong, but I know HKSAR passport holders are granted visa free in 135 countries/territories. This number is higher than BNO and since China is uprising now, it may be a wise choice to hold a HKSAR passport

I'm really here more for opinions than answers since I know a little about the seafood here in Thailand having lived here for all of this decade. The thing is, I'm not all that experienced when it comes to eating seafood in other countries so I'm wondering how people feel it compares. Does it come out in the taste that hardly any of it is caught from the sea? Does the cheap price of seafood make up for any limitations or health risks? I've been thinking about this a little and would like some informed opinions. Thanks.

Mine has to be when my uncle died and we were supposed to walk behind the hearse to the cemetary. Before the car could move the driver was handed a tape to play out loud through the loud speakers while we walk as per Filipino tradition dictates.
Since my uncle was an Elvis fan, my aunts decided that sad-sounding Elvis ballads be played. My stupid-*** cousins picked up the greatest hits collection instead of the ballads selection tape.
With everybody crying in the background, the music started to play...
"It goes one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready now go cat gooo!!!"
The cries turnd into laughter.
The driver scrambled to change the song and pressed the "next" button....
"you ain't nuthing but a hound dog, barking all the tiiime!"

Man-oh-man, that shoot was funny as hell.
I'd bet my uncle was laughing in heaven too.

Context: Man A is telling Man B about Chinese taboos:

[A]: Yin1 wei4 song4 zhong1 gen1 zhong1guo2 zi4 "song4zhong1" tong2yin1. Dui4 ta1 lai2 shuo1, ni3 song4 ta1 zhong1 jiu4 hao3xiang4 yao4 ta1 zao3 yi2dian3 si3 yi2yang4.
English translation from text book = "Because the pronunciation of "givng a clock" is the same as "making arrangements for the burial of one' parents" in Mandarin. For her, getting a clock means the same as hoping she will pass away soon."

Reply from man B:

[B]: Wo3 de tian1! Wo3 gen1ben3 mei2 xiang3 dao4 zhe4 yi2dian3.

English translation = "Oh my God, I had no idea!"

Help with this question, please:

"yi2dian3" is used in both sentences A & B. Based on context and English translation, what is the defenition of "yi2dian3" in A& B?

I treid using online dictionaries, but one gave me false translation, while the other gave me no translation at all.

ALSO, Does the word Zi4 in [A] mean "character"?

Mandarin speakers, thank you for your help.

I know it's impossible so don't give me that "it won't happen" preach.

Let's say you get to decide on which Filipina singer we should send to the American Idol auditions... who would you send?

Someone who won't embarass us and at the same time completely silencing Simon in awe (maybe even make him drool all over his man-boobs in admiration).
