Day 11 - Operation China, Exfultration
its 6am, awake
in the paper yesterday P&G is being sued for not delivering its promise of making a womans hair 11 times more resilient as the ad said it would, funny, in the US i think we're numb to the idea that we could actually sue for that, but here its like western promise of goodness dashed on the rocks of reality baby, its marketing, apparently several cases are going up against P&G over their marketing promises,
the other day i saw the first and only glimpse of armed men, looked like they had tommy guns from the old era of gangster movies, it was a armed bank car with a full escort of about six men, police in general dont stick out like they do back home, and when you do see them, they are young kids, the hardened seasoned souls we have back home, the intimidation factor at least is back home, here i just see them as standing army men,
reading the article about the riot on sunday here in beijing, which i never saw, never heard of, and well this city is massive and all, anyways i could see people snapping here fairly easily, just witnessing the way traffic works is amazing to me, people dive into traffic, bikes, motorcyles, people walking, cabs, cars, vans, trucks, all ignoring anything and everything, the lines me nothing, there is no order just keep it moving, ya never go very fast either, always under 50mph really
