So last time you went there people were trying to marry you to their daughters?

They were certainly hinting. My parents know that I have a GF, but not my relatives.. because it is still a taboo to speak openly about relationships if you are not married. I told them I have no plans to get married for at least 3 more years. There is this weird threshold.. in my parents generation a girl should be married before the age of 20, right now it is 25. There is much leeway for men though.. although I think the balance is going to shift due the unsustainable sex ratio we have in our country.

I'd rather watch WWF reruns of Hulk Hogan vs. Terry Funk from the '80s than any porn. Of course both are rather boring to a short attention span. It's more entertaining to speak backwards amongst a group of people comprised of dozens of nationalities and dialects. The looks on their faces trying to understand is funny enough. Then when the tape is reversed and they hear perfect English the look is priceless. :biggrin:

I'm hoping all of these are the same:
Small - Tree PEG2 $295
HP NC360T $84 new $40 used
Intel PRO/1000 Pt Dual Port $139 new $60 used

The last two are. lol

+ my parents are rich. That dwarfs everything if it is for an arranged marriage.

My grandparents on my mothers side were very rich. Unfortunately because of traditional Chinese values most of their money went to their sons when they passed away, very little to the daughters.

If I wanted to watch dudes in speedos fondling each other I'd just watch softcore gay porn. Yep.
