``Friends have come from afar, how happy we are,'' sang 2,008
performers, quoting Confucius and banging traditional ``fou'' drums,
in the welcoming scene at the Bird's Nest stadium.

The ceremony follows 13 months of rehearsals and includes 14,000
performers -- most from the People's Liberation Army -- and 3,000
``scholarly disciples'' of Confucius, whose teachings were banned
during the Cultural Revolution because they were considered elitist.

While you serve bird shit.
You have avoided answering my questions. Why is that? You hide behind
an anagram of Chen A Bian and you are so scared to say anything that
will show who you really are. What is your problem ? We know you are
working as a hostess in a gay bar in New York. Jim Walsh says you are
his friend, and answers posts for you, but you don't dare confirm
that? Why? are you ashamed of having any association with a gay man
like Walsh? The Chinese communities never tolerate gays, do they? I
bet you "teach" English to unsuspecting suckers the way Walsh does,
heh? Which school did you go to in Taiwan. I know someone who went to
National Tainan First Senior High School. His name sounds almost like
yours, except for the middle word. Do you really know how to change
ISP, or was it something...
