After a year in China, I came back on Christmas Day, when everything was closed.  So, ironically, on my first day back my family and I went to a Chinese buffet since that was the only thing open.

I said xie xie to the waiter, who sheepishly replied with your welcome in English.

981977405:

Everything closed in Chicago on Christmas Day? I have never seen that before. Not in the suburbs, for sure, perhaps the bigger stores in the Loop,but my God, Devon Avenue closed? I don't think so...Andersonville closed? I don't think so either. Who knows maybe things have changed.

It's pretty common knowledge that life shuts down on Christmas, and the only things open are movie theatres and Chinese restuarants.

Grandy's Chicken Fried Steak or Texas size steak with extra gravy and Jack N the Box Cheesecake

subhash.sah:

why the fuck did i get a thumb down?????????? Is it because my name doesnt sound fucking Texan, so i aint from texas, or are Grandy's and Jack N the box not classy enough for you uptight mo-fuckers. Or do you just hate the idea that everything is bigger in texas. Or should i have just said "biryani" just because i have an Indian origin.

uh.. notice everyone got a thumbs down. Some alter egos give thumbs down with one hand and get off with the other. Don't take them personally.

Usually it is real, honest to goodness buffalo wings and a side of curly fries with paprika. Then, for dessert, some hot apple pie with vanilla ice cream. Simple food, but really, really good.

A:Good question!  I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside working full-time as an E.T. with Residence permit, you don't interfere with your full-time employment.It's your free time and you can do anything you want, with respect to the Chinese laws and customs. Have a look at terms of Z visa/Residence permit and ... ".. you cannot work (and earn monies!) with another employer ..."That's all it is! Your RP sponsor title is written on the RP stamp in your passport, I think. It's in Mandarin, so I've heard about that from someone ...At I.D.-ing by cops, they know where you work and than more details about you are just a phone call away ... and it happened in person ... LOL ... during the day-time stroll through Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, 2012/13 semester. Now under RP, you're free to surf Internet, jog, ... and study, too. I suggest, you look and ask at the Uni, you plan to study in the future. Have a detailed look at requirements for studying and attending chosen Uni.Good luck! -- icnif77
