Just when I thought Saved By the Gong had gone the way of a certain Canadian hammer merchant; cut down in its prime by impetuous ninjas, here is another one. I'm glad to see it still going.

I first ran into characters from the three kingdoms in 成语故事。 It seems these guys are a rich source of idioms.

I was neither dissuading or advocating immigration. Rather, some of the sentiments expressed in the lesson banter, didn't quite match my impressions, and I hoped to spark further discussion on immigration to China.

exercise result什么回事?

There were two extravagances to choose from, and it seems I picked the wrong one.

吓我一跳,Jenny想拿美国绿卡的话,中文博客会怎么办?

Also, contrary to the lesson banter, I think China is an immigrant country to an extent. Hasn't John pretty much immigrated? My impression is that lots of people from countries that China does business with, go there to study, and sometimes end up making their lives in China.

How about "scroll stop", "undo", and "redo"?

This lesson had some, simple very useful vocabulary and usage in it that I didn't know before.  So, I liked it a lot.

I also feel a little odd, because Dilu's mother is probably about my age, and the mother seemed to be considered too old to be expected to use computers, but I don't feel that way about myself, at all.

What's with the lack of an Advanced or Media lesson this week?  I'm really bummed!
