"Chi wa"... I have no idea, truthfully-- it could very possibly be "eat frog" *glances askance at PHJ and KJ as she says this* but I need to see the actual ideograms/ hear the actual thing (Mandarin being a tonal language and all) before I tell you what I don't know

Alternatively, it might also be in one of the Chinese dialects I don't understand, like Cantonese or Teochew. Actually, if truth be told, I only understand one dialect-- Hokkien or Fukinese, which is spoken by my relatives. "Chi wa" sounds like it could be in Cantonese. Like I said, I need to hear it before I can tell. *nods*

Yeah, but thpse two are just plain strange. As are quite a few of the PHJ's come to think of it. I am completely sane of course.

Of course that doesn't apply to you. You might be sane, all the other PHJs won't be telling you that. :roll:

Ah, that's a "dead" smiley. I was wondering about that. I meant, of course, XP as in experience, but you probably already knew that. :wink:

cat, I never listen to what the voices tell me. I've been down that road before, and it's not pretty.

And of course stupid stupid Interpol won't let up about it. And I'm convinced the CIA are following me too. Stupid CIA.

Two minutes? That's nothing. Kids today, no patience...in *my* day we had to wait two or three days for a reply, *and* we had to download our mail and read it offline because we only had 30 minutes per day on the BBS (at 28.8kbps).
