Hey Everyone! Bob and I just got back from quite the shoppin' trip. We bought 197 dvds.

CSI Collection - 49 DVD

Miyazaki Collection - 35 DVD

South Park Season 1 & 2 - 8 DVD

Hikaru No Go (Complete Series) 12 DVD (Jealous, Charles?)

24 Season 5 - 8 DVD

Lucky # Slevin

Pitch Black

Inner Senses

Crash

Cannibal Holocaust

Sin City

V for Vendetta

The Machinist

Tom-Yum-Goong - Ong Bak 2!!

Shaolin Soccer

008 Forbidden City Cop

Land of the Dead

The Godfather 1, 2, 3

Equilibrium

Seven Swords

Se7en

Stay Alive

Braveheart (Finally)

The total price was $137 USD. Not too shabby.

After the dvd shopping we bought eight 20 oz. bottles of soda plus one can in a big supermarket for a grand total of $2.60.

Bob also tried some mighty funky Chinese fruits in a market stall but we ended up simply buying some peaches and bananas.

At night, the streets are packed with people watching TVs placed outside of shops. It is not uncommon in DongGuan to see a little shop with 25-50 peeps clustered about watching the telly. I think that they are all addicted to Lost :o). One thing they are not watching is Family Guy, which is not even available as a bootleg. This is a very good thing because it keeps the maidens pure. (This "maiden" thing comes directly from our Chinese teacher who told us on the first day that you should never curse a maiden. [Although she was happy to teach us Japanese swear words.])

Bob is bugging me to finish up so we can watch some South Park (which is available in China. Go figure.)

Peace out, Napoleon.
