Happy Halloween!

you up for meeting somewhere by the end of november? I gotta head to HK for a visa run and I'll get my paycheck, why not stop by in Shenzhen for some drinks and food

UNCLE PHIL

Yeah arrived a couple days ago. Think we will have to wait until my next paycheck, though, as I have just a couple hundred yuan for this month after spending most of it on train tickets and eating in Shanghai

About Dongguan, there seem to be a lot of women here. High heels and short skirts are a much bigger thing here than in other cities, and the company I work for as a teacher is already telling me I should stay in China and marry a chinese chick
They also got shops with porn and hoes which I ain't seen anywhere else in the PRC (aside from a dildo shop in Shanghai and all the offers there for 'sexy massage'). Night life is more vibrant than elsewhere too, whereas Shanghai and BJ are pretty much dead after 9/10 PM people here go outside until like 12, and I don't even live in central Dongguan but in a small township on the outskirts.

That's why I wear N95 masks will take off in a few days though, my work will be in Dongguan, pretty close to Shenzen! Before that I will do a little trip along the east coast, but first I'm off wednesday morning to Mount Wutai how's Guangdong? Hope it's better than this trouthole!

where you werkin' in China?

Yeah, I don't think I've seen any dialogue in his stories yet. It seems like the storyteller is always present and you never get the events straight from the page. I don't mind it. I haven't read enough to give it my recommendation, but it seems like it might be worth checking out. There are some really striking descriptions of hellish worlds, but also a lot of "madness" that rings of the misconception of human psychology that was ubiquitous during that period. And a lot of the horror seems to come from the unknown and the foreign, in many cases nearing xenophobia, which is also greatly dated.

I've heard of Cathedral, yes. Seems like the place to start.

No, I haven't, but he's still on my list. Can you tell me a collection of his I should read? I just started reading "The Call of Cthulhu."

Why don't you post at FG anymore? It's been somewhat active lately (thanks to me).
