Usually, the conversations began with "Kent, you ignorant twit..." and went downhill from there! Actually, there is a Chinese phrase that I just learned that is somewhat equivalent : 万人皆醉我独醒 (wan4 ren2 jie1 zui4 wo3 du2 xing3). It says "When the many are drunk, I alone remain sober."

Loved your articles in THAT'S SHANGHAI... too bad they aren't there...but the podcasts are better and longer. I can just see your CHINA MENTOR sitting you down on a warm afternoon on a crowded street corner cafe, sipping a latte... the pipa in the background... "now my young apprentice... I will give you another pearl of wisdom." "Yes, master" you replied, eagerly as you take another sip of your frothy latte. "Remember, my young apprentice. Keep your head when others are losing theirs." With a quizzical look, you reply. "Yes, master Mentor. I understand." Now the question is... how do you say that in Chinese?!?! Kent. always love your podcasts. Loved your articles in THAT’S SHANGHAI… too bad they aren’t there…but the podcasts are better and longer.
