Geb Bixer - 22 Nov 2006 16:59 GMT The Chinese people really, really like Americans. I was very well treated and made to feel welcome by everyone that I met. I didn't pay for one meal the whole time (ten days) I was there. I didn't travel as a tourist so the people I got to meet were local business types, family members and friends. The monk, I met in an elevator in Hanczhou. Hanczhou, located two hours by train, south of Shanghai is the silk capitol of the world. Silk was invented there 5000 years ago. There are literally thousands of wholesale silk shops that sell to customers from all over the world. I was in a shop negotiating a purchase when a group of Israelis came in. They were very rude and treated the shop vendors like they were sh.t. When they left the Chinese looked at me and smilingly said "USA numbah one." The monk in the image said the same thing on the elevator. I pointed to my camera back and forth between the both of us and he nodded affirmatively. We took the photo outside of the elevator.
If there is a war going on in Iraq the Chinese I met either don't know or don't care about it. In the aftermath of the Cultural Revolution they are focused on rebuilding China. Shanghai is breathtaking. One might observe a building being held up by bamboo. Next to it there will be a New York City type skyscraper. Next to that will be a hole in the ground where construction is beginning on another one.

Sounds like a great trip, Gumboot. Thanks for sharing that little piece of it. Did you travel to the Orient with a snowshoe?

Cactus Jammies - 04 Dec 2006 16:54 GMT Geb, that sounds wonderful. I hope sometime I can get over that way. I did not mean to disrespect you, and or by the connection you made with the monk, (actually because of the way the light and the gold colours bounced around, I took the setting to be in a chamber in a well-lit temple. ha. the quality of the reduction process and the art-fart I tried on int was really quick last minute out the door stress I was experiencing at the time I would like to do a better job if I can arrange it. The look I saw on your face made me want to somehow do some layering, indigo the only colour on my pallet at time. I messed it, yes, as our good friend has pointed out. I can redo it. I can put you in plaid robes if you want, too. heh heh
on a deeper note, did you get the feeling at all that there was some dread as to the resiliency of the cuture you were in at the time?

Geb Bixer - 05 Dec 2006 18:13 GMT Cacti!
My impression of the Chinese and their culture is everyone is playing a desperate game of catch up. There are millions of people moving frantically in all directions, each one of them with serious purpose and a compelling need to "get 'r done."
The big hustle is on in China. The economy is booming and the situation is volatile. It can go either way at any time. Everyone remembers the Cultural Revolution. The country is capable of supporting 800 million people. There are 1.3 billion. There is a vast reservoir of poor people. The race against time is to bring them into the middle class. Since my frame of reference is western, I'm still grappling with what I saw and experienced. One thing is for sure. They are good people to do business with. They'll move heaven and earth to get things done. They won't pencil whip you or short you on the count, but; you better know what you're doing or they'll run circles around you.
I'm looking forward to what comes next!

When the Communist Party desolves into rivalry and hedging, there will be war lords and all the rest. for a while at least. More info available on request. I do not follow the Taoist path. I am more of a watch and listen to the Dhali Lama kind of kook. Thanks for your words.
cheers no fears

The top one percent is competing with each other for visas to the U.S., Canada, Australia and the U.K. in that order. The Asian population in the U.S. university system is growing exponentially. U.S. students are complacent and the sheer ambitions of the Asians are blowing them away. The indigenous U.S. Crackas and Niggas had best get their proverbial stuff together or else it's sucking hind tit time until they do.
