Taxi Humor
While I was in a 1.20rmb cab today on the way to work, sitting in near stand still traffic on the third ring road, the taxi driver turns to me and asks:
Driver: Do you know what day today is?
Me: No...(I'm thinking Thursday?) What is today?
Driver: Today is September 22nd. Worldwide No Driving Day.
At this, we both burst out laughing. He went on to tell me that the other day, while at Xidan (a big shopping area in town - promoting capitalism to everyone and anyone), two girls were handing out little free gifts to drivers if they promise not to drive on September 22nd. The cab driver then said: "Who cares about these little gifts? If they bought me a McDonald meal, then maybe I'll think about it."
At the pace of a crawl, it took another 15 minutes to get to work.

Geez Sheila,
What do i get for all that hard work?
If you can think of a better reward than your half-grinned "Thanks - but you forgot the maple syrup", maybe I'll consider bringing you those KFC tarts to office tomorrow.
sheila, i want my memory cards!
