Haha

My FB friend posted this and I found it funny, so I thought I'd share
it with all you loyal Shangbert readers.


A Chinese farmer is walking through his fields when he notices a
backpacker drinking from his pond with his hand.

The Farmer yells out, " 别喝! 牛有大便在水里!"
("Don't drink! The cows have shit in the water!")

The Man shouts back, " I'm an American! I don't understand Chinese.
Speak English !! "

So the Farmer says, " Use both hands! You'll get more! "

Blocked

So some of you loyal readers of Shangbert might be wondering why I
haven't blogged in a few weeks. Turns out access to blogspot was
blocked in China a few weeks ago, and since then I've kinda lost the
desire to blog, even though I can still create new posts through an
email address that I set up; I just can't see them. Last week, in
preparation for the 20th anniversary of that thing that happened in
Beijing, pretty much everything else was blocked too. Twitter (which
supposedly caused an uproar in the tweeting community), Hotmail (thank
goodness I don't have hotmail), Flickr, Microsoft's Bing or Ying or
whatever it's called, and of course YouTube has been blocked since
April.

I probably miss youtube the most. Not only was it a great source of
hilarious Family Guy clips, but I can also watch news and political
speeches on it. Now nothing. Well anyways, hopefully it'll come back
soon, but I ain't holding my breath.
