Am in Beijing, exploring to engage w/ next meal ticket, or what ever, drifting a bit, perhaps, no matter, all enjoyable, chatting w/ good people, munching on Mongolian hotpot, soaking in lovely bathtub, and now checking out in-room wifi while some very scary movie plays in background.
Tomorrow shall converse with buddy from far away, and with buddy living here.
Looking forward to going home Friday, to see daughter Erita go off w/ mama to brother-in-law's concert in Macau, and to stay home with little jack, he who quite obviously looks to me for encouragement n approval (I do not believe I am imagining).
Mid next week shall do proletariat-class exploration, at a guangzhou trade show with exceedingly thrift (I am being kind) but certainly quite well-off pal who likely wants to crash at 2-3 stars hotel as compromise, if not 1-2 stars per his usual.
All interesting, whatever works, which ever way.
Re buffalos vs eagles, both are gold coins by USA mint. Buffalos are 9999 gold, just like maple, pandas, n koalas. Eagles contain 1 oz of gold, but also some weight in copper for tougher handling. |
