07/22/2005: "Funny Chinese names"

Aren't the Chinese funny? I don't know if you are aware of the Chinese practice of taking on odd 'western' names when dealing with foreigners. You see, names like Xiao-Xou are awkward to pronounce for us, and perhaps because of this (or perhaps because they just want to be cool) Chinese people choose alternative names for dealing with us whities. In fact some people don't get to choose, as we have actually seen happen a superior assigns someone to work on a project, needs a name and simply says "you look like Eric, we'll call you Eric from now on". So often you meet Chinese people like Bob Liu-Chien, Jack Zhou or Theodore Xu-Gao, but often you encounter some pretty odd name choices. Try these on for size, over the past year I have met people called Hunter, Lightning, Nightfish, Candy and Lucky. So half the time it feels like i'm working with Gladiators, super heroes, prostitutes and collies! Very odd practice, not at all nice, and regular Chinese names are so nice anyway!

Researches around the world have identified extreme craving for food as the principal cause of obesity which, when gauged properly, appears to be absolutely true. When you pass by a roadside fast food joint you fall prey to your hunger pangs and gorge on burgers, pizzas excessively which further leads to the addition of extra fat in your body. Well, to help yourself at such a crucial juncture you need phentermine diet pills that efficaciously curbs on your hunger feeling and leads to weight loss. Phentermine is an appetite suppressant that lowers your hunger pangs by working on the hypothalamus gland in the nervous system which further leads to weight loss. So, to get control over your obesity, I recommend you to opt for phentermine online and buy phentermine from an authentic phentermine seller. Keep in mind that cheap phentermine would be delivered at your doorstep only if you buy phentermine online.

My husband holds a position in the society and popular for his charitable ways. I have known him and adored him for his generosity towards social organizations and his love towards nation. This man, you will not believe, was a slave to cigarette and first thing he would do in the morning is light a cigarette. When doctor advised him to quit smoking owing to his lung condition, he was just made himself restless all day thinking how he would manage leaving without cigarette. Then chantix, the new drug came into the market. He gave it a thought, should he buy chantix? I encouraged him to buy this new anti-smoking drug. After two months, we are enjoying a smoke-free life and I adore my husband more for his will power and thank Chantix for helping him with withdrawal effect.

Levitra came to my life when no other popular ED pill was able to help me. I was totally frustrated about my penile condition. It made me mad every time I wanted it to stand, it would always betray me. They say it was a severe erectile dysfunction. The doctor finally asked me to buy levitra for my condition. I thought I would give it a last try then leave the hope forever. After giving it a thought, I decided to order levitra. Someone told that I can get cheap levitra if I buy levitra online. That was something I liked. That night, I could not believe it, levitra made my penis alive and strong! It was erect again, and I was happy again to remain satisfied with Levitra ever after.
