There’s something fishy about this photo taken just outside the CPod factory. Have a close look and see if you can find it. Be the first one to spot something out of the ordinary and win 1000RMB*!!

*RMB = Rian’s Magnificent Blessings

Um, would the pink bra and white underwear be what you are referring to? Geez, Rian, we thought you’d be the type to wear a black bra. . .

looks like there is an almost-naked old man behind the two people in the front…. no wait, “fishy”, you must be talking about the 2 fishes hanging up there, next to the pink bra!

Hum, could it be the dead animals hanging from the clothes line? Or is that normal?

haha, looks like a photo finish! phliou got it 2 minutues before NannyOgg. 1000 of my magnificent blessings to you philou! And what the hay, NannyOgg shouldn’t punished for slow typing either so 1000 to you too! and half marks to Hannah Im, although I don’t see anything wrong with wearing a pink bra and white underwear. The bra is just faded a bit, and I like to wear red and white to represent my Canadian heritage.

Now here’s another story about this particular strip of sidewalk that I just remembered… the other day it really was windy and a nice wet pair of particularly large woman’s underpants nearly missed my head by about a centimeter! That would have been a funnier picture, but this one I thought was pretty priceless as well. You know in China it is considered bad form to wash your undergarments together with your other laundry, but I guess it’s ok to dry them on a communal line together with your dinner!

No fair, I was in bed when this was posted. :P

Are those bikes parked there without being locked up in any way? Is that normal? They wouldn’t last five minutes around here, ask me how I know :-)

雷安 Rian the intern August 1, 2006 at 7:02 pm

Do you think the chances of getting hit by lightning or by flying wet underwear are greater? How about getting a near miss, then getting hit later? Given my luck in the past Ken, I’ll keep my camera on me just in case…

I never realized there were actually quite a few strange things in this picture… piles of unlocked bikes, mismatched lingerie, a naked guy… anything else? Could that be old school Ocean Pasific the guy is wearing? I guess we just get neutralized to all this stuff living here. Oh! If any of you are coming to visit us in the near future — see the back of that white truck behind the guy in the blue shirt? That is where you turn to get to the factory! You’ll probably have to dodge a number of long vans like this trying to back out of a narrow maze of tall concrete walls.

BTW: You sleep Bazza??? Now that’s gotta be an excuse.

“a nice wet pair of particularly large woman’s underpants nearly missed my head by about a centimeter”

Nearly missed your head? Does that mean they hit?

have a look at my blog, I have loads of this stuff:
http://www.china-qa.blogspot.com/

and a lot of stuff i could not post.
such a picture of a dog , pig bound and hanging with a bamboo pole thru the loops, alive & waiting to be cooked.
you peeps need to get out of the big cities and into the surrounding country side.

but the funniest /stupidest picture is of my chinese “engineering” staff , with a stripped down microwave oven on the floor ,with safety systems defeated, cover off & them asking can they plug it in ,to see how it works.

Like I said you guys need to get out more.
