    I'm in Hong Kong, and I have nothing to do. Do any of you have any suggestions? I'm gonna be here for a week and I don't speak Mandarin, so i'm kinda limited. *YAWN* i'm tired, a twelve hour time diff., so when it's time for bed it feels like time to wake up.

    Dude.

    I have no idea what Hong Kong is like now that it's China.

    Last time I was there, everyone was buying gold. There were guyz that bought at least US $1000 in gold there. I guess they turned right around, and sold it for about $6000 in the US.

    Other than that, I don't remember much else. Mostly just flashes of bars, and water...

    Eat.
    Sleep.
    Repeat.

    OR

    Go around like a mad monkey and take photos while screaming really loud and acting like you haven't seen anything.

    But seriously...I think HK was kinda boring, but that may be because I was sick then. :D

    [​IMG] Actually, you're missing the point of going to HK - find illegal games that sell for only a few bucks. I bet they have IWDII for about $7 or less maybe. Actually, I'm kidding, there are no cheap games, or are there?...

    Are you on vacation or something?

    Take advantage of the Triad presence there. (i.e. buy lots of bootleg software and videos)

    [​IMG] Today I got some software that isn't slated for U.S. release for quite a while. Ha. Ha. Ha. /me leers at the unfortunates. I got (of course) IWD 2, not full version though, lots of bugs and limited time in-game. A few others that I have no idea what they are, just grabbed them because they were cheap. Saw many stereotypical people here today. Here's a list: 2 stereotypical people from Germany, 2 stereotypical people from America, 2 stereotypical people from England, 2,000,000 stereotypical people from China. Busy day. :sleep:
    p.s. food is very good.
