had a great time vacationing in vancouver and also went to victoria island, it is 4th or 5th time i visited the butchar garden now, and still like this world famous garden. went skiing at whistler, man it is the skiers paradise. kevin and chris also enjoyed playing and skiing with uncle and anty.

there are not many left from the winter olympic 2010 event, only the olympic square and the new convention center with the olympic torch displays. the water drop is a very cute design, like a drop from teh space. the 4 torches still remind me about the mal-functioning of one of the torch and how creative they added an episode before the closing ceremony to “fix” the torch.

Men’s Basketball: china vs usa

admin — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 08:01:20 +0000

this is a game that the result is known even before the game, yet this is the game that has attracted probably the most viewers in china. winning is of course important, but sometimes the process is more enjoyable than the result and this is the perfect example.

it does not matter if usa beats china in a massacre style, it only matters if yao ming gets double double, and swinging his way to the basket and dump with a exclamation point with Yao style, it only matters if kobe dribble his way and do a reverse layup like magic show, it only matters if Lebron showed his inside and out game with a dizzling handling of balls and dish out ball that land in a perfect spot…

that is why i heard kobe gets as loud applause as, if not more than, yao ming. you know what does that mean, there is a saying that stated: yao is to chinese fans, is like great wall is to china.

easy to find space in office buildings these days

these days i can see there are more spaces in the parking lot and it is pretty easy to find a parking, regardless when you are coming. we were kinda talk about this today in a meeting, some said it is because of the oil price is going up crazy and lots of people just dont want to drive to work and save some gas. well, good try. some said it is because kids are in summer vacation and people are taking vacation with their kids, that might be more close to what it happened.

of course, the olympics is coming closer, it is a big deal here. may be lots of people are taking the olympics vacation now?

not sure how many live games i can watch, i think it will depends how well the american team is doing, if they are in final, no doubt there will be live show. otherwise, it is more likely to see a reply during the golden hours in late afternoon, and you need to avoid knowing the results before you watch the reply. I listen to the radio alot while i am driving and i am sure to hear something like “ok, if you dont want to know the score, please turn off your radio for 40 sec…”, i feel this is funny but also i think this is pretty caring for the hosters to do this, i would definately appreciated that.
