Weird!!! but factual....

I thought I would give you a few factoids about the "People of China" , as they can have some pretty bizarre behavior. especially if your thoughts reside in the western world...

Here we go....

Did you know that:

- Chinese women use pieces of bamboo tooth picks  and the ends of plucked duck feathers instead of earrings as a means to let their ears rest from wearing earrings...( I did ask my Ayi if she used the same ones for her teeth after dinner, we had a good laugh : ))) )
- Most babies do not wear diapers regularly, but split pants, which enables  the parents to fold the child in half every so often, which enables the children to relieve themselves over bushes or whatever is available...
- That most chinese families have soup for dinner every night...
- That you can eat lunch for easily 22 cents U.S...or less... : ) and its goooo--oood...
- There are no stop signs in China...
- That the biggest vehicle has the right of way...(we need an SUV)
- That pregnant Chinese women wear a anti-radiation lead apron if they work at a computer ... WHAT!!!!! ( Proof, at Harry's work.. )
- You Bargain EVERYWHERE and EVERYTHING!!!
- That many Chinese apartments still don't have running water...or heat...even if it goes below zero...
- Throw their bones (food) out the window into the bushes after dinner.. weird!!!
- Live in multi-family apartments...
- Most people bike, walk or bus to work for at least an hour each way for as little salary as 100 dollars per month.... ( do you feel fortunate now... )
- 90% OF WOMEN HAVE CESARIANS, AND THEIR DOCS ENCOURAGE THIS!!!
- And they believe that c-sections make you have smaller butts!!! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!
-Most Chinese like in Mexico have nap time between 12pm and 2pm...even at work... smart!!!
- Most men who do not have labor intensive work, will let their pinky nail grow to show their non-peasant status. ( ALL my nails are VERY long )   : )
- If a Chinese couple end up in divorce, the man automatically has custody of  THE child... Have you noticed I said 'the child" referring to the one-child policy of China....
- That Chinese often have grasshoppers as pets!!! Do they fetch????
- In the far far country side, Chinese people think that black people have green blood... " MY GOD" are you kidding me????
- It can costs less than less than $50.00 u.s.. to have a suit tailored to perfection.. "Nice suits Harry!"
- Anyone in China will exercise ANYWHERE and anytime no matter what age you are... SMART!
- Most married couples live with a set of parents, usually the womens, and the grandparents take care of the children and the household  while the the adult children work... REALLY smart....
-You can get an haircut under the bridge... they stick a mirror to a bridge pillar, set up a chair, et VOILA!!!! Cheap rent and, No clean-up : )))))
So, stay tuned for more factazoids from the great land of China!!!!

Your word of the day... Xi Huan... Pronounced " She-hoo-on"  Which means, "Like" !
