I'm very excited because I'm going to see 'Rent' the musical this evening. It closes on Broadway very soon and my sister wanted to see it very badly so we got tickets for tonight's performance. I'm very excited and I can't wait! I hope you and your sister have a great time, Stephany!  If you enjoy tonight's show half as much as I enjoyed last night's show with Hayley, then I enjoyed last night's show twice as much as you'll enjoy tonight's show! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifLove, Richard  |

The 28 sky :
OK,that is just what you think,but I am sure to tell you that as a Chinese, I am very proud of our country,because we witness the fast development of our country,and we try our utmost to solve a lot of problems , and you see, Beijing held the 2008 Olympic Game very successfully,even the President of International Olympic Committee Roger also praise for the achievement of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games many many times,you can watch the open ceremony through the internet. I feel very sorry that you do not understand our country and the true spirit of the Olympics because you never come to China and go to see the outside world.I think you should "look before you leap"when say something with second thought.That's it.

Hi Tracey, I think you have overreacted a little bit. I don't want to talk about politics in HWI but honestly, no one can deny that Olympics can't be completely detached from political factors. Just calm down, the28sky didn't explicitly speak ill of China and we aren't supposed to make everyone else think in the same way as we do, are we?  Tin |

Thank you, Tin. You have summarised my thoughts very well.
Tracey, I am disappointed to say the least at your reaction to an earlier post. As Tin has said, The28sky was not critical of China but merely implied that he has concerns about the Olympic Games. I suspect his views would have been the same regardless of where they were held. Members are not necessarily expected to agree with other members' opinions but I feel your reaction was unjustified. Any further posts of that nature will not be accepted on this forum.

Hi tracey,
Sorry for your reaction, like Tinmeigut and Richard said I did not want to say anything bad about your country, I'm free to watch them or not and it's just an opinion. The reasons why I'm not interested have nothing to do with the undisputed beauty of China, I haven't explained them and I really don't want to discuss them, there's no reason of doing that. I've watched many times Olympic games, simply not this time. I'm really sorry for this little mistake.
Emil
