John, wishing you a 'smooth sailing' to China. You are right - life is about new experiences and not about security - but few have guts to live that way. It's been nice knowing you. Ben

Okay John, don't make us drool now.

Do you know that if everybody that lives in China would jump at the exact same instant they could knock the earth out of orbit?

Did you get that Intel job in Shanghai? I guess that means you'll have in-laws begging for grandkids everyday now. Time to start that family while grandma is close by!

I have two boys and if I get a job in Shanghai, they're coming with me! Who says little boys can't travel? They can only tie you down if you let them! So, when's the next flight? hah hah...

This is an award winning picture! I used to enjoy watching the crab pot man too. I will miss you at book club, you always contributed so much and had us reading such interesting books. I am looking forward to learning about your great adventure in China.
