If more people could have the same experience which you have so thoughtfully shared, perhaps we as a people would be less inclined to drop bombs on others we know little about. Much more difficult to carpet bomb people who you see as human.
Thanks Dave, I know in your heart you walk your talk...best, Terry
OMG. Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful photos. What an incredible experience your visit to China must have been. Wow.
Hi Knut - Yes, we are all complicit of tainted goods and tainted acts...every ripple of kindness we can send out to the world, makes a small difference. So in light of that thought, I am wishing you a day full of humor, smiles and goodwill. Thank yo…
Well said Vanessa. How much are American corporations complicit (and by extension, all of us), in the proliferation of "tainted goods."
Thanks for your descriptive and beautiful writing Terry.
Hi all and special thanks to my buddy Rachel (love u so) and also Kylie for her invitation. I was not writing about government, products, politics or anything that resembled that. I was sharing some humanity. Kylie, this one's for you - I was in Sha…
I'm a true believer in supply and demand and practice it every day or should I say the imbalance of it. I would think the demand for their product even being so cheap is lessening, because of the tainted products. I see them about thirty years behin…
Also, beggars can't be choosers, if we keep demanding cheap products, then we will have to sacrifice in quality.
When people are at the mercy of their government, as in the case of the Chinese - it is hard for the workers and citizens to stand up for what is right - especially when their information is heavily sensored. Is your comment directed to the governme…
With all due respect to the Chinese, and anyone else who may not like my following remarks, and noting that I have never personally been there...and that I really don't want to piss anyone off on this board because I like it here...lol...
What both…
Hi all, I recently went with The Academy of Dance and performers in our own Civic Ballet SLO to China and wanted to share some pictures and some observations...the Chinese people are amazing and so hungry for the outside world. They are open, warm a…
Hi John - thanks for your message and I wanted to reply to your question of moral decline. There is no decline, only a new beginning. This beginning is being felt worldwide. The old ways of behavior no longer work in our society. We are all part of…

The most exotic place on earth
I am leaving for China for two weeks, with a client on a cultural exchange. I am curious about what has been your experience in far off lands. (New Jersey does not count). The most exotic place and experience you have had and can share with us?

- Hsc-most assurdedly we can. I am sitting in Starbucks now on the Upper Westside of Manhattan just about to explore Central Park with my camera-later today I see two friends for lunch that I grew
Up with, 40+ years have past since we have seen each other! Big day and feeling excited and a tad melancholy as well
Returning in days and would love to grab a cup of coffee with you-best, T
Hope the pizza night did (or does well)-best, Terry

- Well, I knew that there were elf sympathizers on the Central Coast. I invite Ed, trusted buddy, Pablo, wildman, John, truthseeker and Karen, dwarf-challenged maiden to join at the dunes for an ELFQUEST!
Yes, when I return from NY-lets us share some ale (white wine) and meet to plan our quest in the forest of the elves. Or not-it could also a movie night?
Karen, sorry to hear about the angry dwarf, but imagine the impact of being rear-ended and having such a small, teeny, tiny rear.
I bring my keen sight to the big apple and will seek out the NY elves, most of which have rent controlled apartments on the westside..
Thank you all for your imagination, humor and wisdom...my best to you, Terry
