When I was teaching in China, my first-graders looked at me in complete disgust when I combined milk and cookies for a lesson. They had never heard of such a thing.

That memory just came to mind as I was reading this thread.

My sister lives in Hong Kong. She has a housekeeper over there, who used to freak out on a regular occasion over what sort of food and combinations we eat!! My sister's got her used to it now......

That's interesting, never imagined that milk and cookies aren't a known combination all over the place.

Longest day ever... Found out there are def going to be layoffs at my company this summer. Ugh...

Am I crazy, or did I read somewhere than Asians have a much higher rate of lactose intolerance, so they don't drink much milk?

I'm not entirely sure, but I can tell you that the milk they have there is different from over here. It has a different taste, at least. That's one thing I really missed when I was over there, especially decent ice cream.

Mmm... cookies

Our dress code at work has been relaxed until the fall! I can't tell you how excited I am that I can now wear jeans every day! They've never done anything like this before, so it's going over very well with everyone.

Yeah that's what I have heard too. Although we used to drink a lot of milk in India. It hasn't affected me or anyone I know. But for a brief while last year I did wonder if I had lactose intolerance based on some symptoms. The test proved to be negative though, thank god!

this is true, especialy in Japan - they tend to drink more soy or rice milk then regular milk

It would be awesome if this thread could have a sticky, and be permanently on the top of the page.

[Reggie Thee Dog]

TiVo, tape, record. WhatEVER. I won't be here watching it live after 6:30

 

[Drea]

Hopefully the series will be competitive and close as in the Bird/Magic days... I imagine there's a lot of 'old-school' fans on both sides chomping at the bit for the game to start

Not too much, I think. Beav and NSW have been making sporadic appearances.


Check out Inside Broadcast - there's a thread about sig changes in there, I think.

I agree Drea - should be a great series. I can't decide if it will be the Lakers in 6 or 7
