Productivity, Lack of... Technology Sucks - And then some...

Contents

Today was probably the least productive day ever - one of our switches was down for about 4 or so hours. Yeah, so, I, like many others, cleaned our desks. Saturday I got my bike fixed - 3 hours of work, turned out to be a dented engine seal causing oil to leak into the clutch compartment. Also had a few bolts replaced, and a new front wheel. Following that we went to the World Carnival. I took many pictures, I plan to post them tonight when I get home. I will post another message about it when I do. On Sunday, I saw the movie Shi Mian Ma Fu (The House of Flying Daggers) with a friend. A good movie - no English subtitles, so I struggled to catch a lot of the plot development, but good gong fu. We managed to get student rate (40 RMB versus 60 RMB) due to me using my crapy chinese to the attendent saying we were students learning chinese here in Beijing. I neglected to ask if the movie had English subtitles, although that probably would have blown our cover.
