Thanks for the pointer to that lesson.

As for your mobile expereince, ouch! I had my phone stolen before, but the worst pickpocketing experience was in Barcelona. Lovely city but it's the pick pocketing capital of the world.

I was pickpocketed twice during my stay. Camera gone first and then second time was a brand new camera that i bought straight after. Better than my passport, mobile or wallet I guess, but so many lost photos though :'(

I went for a street food binge over the weekend. Not recommended to have it for 6 meals in a row. The first couple of meals were good though :S

Your funny random comment reminded of America Pie "Where there was this one time. In band camp..........."

I have one little tiny criticism I want say which I hope you could change. It's about the pdf dialogues.

I tend to print out all the pdf dialogues (I know, I know tree killer, but I need to make notes to learn), but on some of the writings, when get to the bottom of the page you get the Chinese characters from one speaker but the pinyin and the english translation is on the other page because you ran out of room to fit them in.

I print double sided (to save paper) and it's abit annoying to flip back and forth to listen to that one part of the speech at the bottom of the page. Is it possible to have the Chinese characters, pinyin and English together at the bottom of the page instead of split between the pages. It makes it easier to follow when listening.

I was wondering, if you ever catch a pickpocket taking your wallet/mobile/dongxi, how do you say something like:

"Oi! I saw you take my (dongxi)!!! Give it back to me now you thief!"

I reckon a phrase like that could come in handy later.

I dunno about you, but I want one on dinosaurs now. Reminds me of the random Cpod lesson on Godzilla.

Hmmmmm what would a chinese caveman say?

An Oscar for Ken's "Forest Gump" voice. I was in stitches hearing Jenny's attempt at impersonating a 鸡 XD

I like the little funniness in these lessons it certainly was fun.
