Hello everybody and special greetings to KCanuck. (We have a mutual friend, I believe.) I'm transferring in, so to speak, from the "Greasy Spoon", just to keep in touch with what's happening in the wonderful world of EFL teaching in China. I taught at two universities in Guangdong from 2003 through 2006. Three years was about enough for me, and I'm now back in Canada, semi-retired, keeping the wolf from the door by writing and editing. Will I ever return to China? Who knows? "We never know what tomorrow may hold."

Welcome aboard, fellow canuckstian, I guarantee you'll find this place a whole lot friendlier than the Spoon.  I've already sent you a PM, I've got absolutely no clue who we know in common.

jwb, it took me a while to woo you from the greasy spoon, so you'd better behave. Use George as your role model example of what not to do.

It's not fair saying I know HFG...I don't know him, I was just unfortunate in having to deal with him for a bit, it is not the same as knowing him.   asasasasas

We are using "know" in it's loosest sense here CK, and certainly not biblically!! I doubt if even HFG's psychiatrist knows him.

Welcome to all the newbies. There are toasties, Tim-Bits, beer and assorted things to munch on in the corner. And a cement-mixer...yes, you have to drink it...we all had to.
