Congratulations Tom.
I am really happy for you, and jealous. I would happily swallow a fish bone just to have a little bit of the happiness you are experiencing now. Lol

What a nice adventure. Thankfully it all turned out well. Your right about not getting in the way of the Chinese woman getting aid for her husband. LOOK OUT!

I got a good K3 lawyer lined up in Los Angeles that's innexpensive and has a good record.

Congrats Tom.  Sounds like you found what you were looking for and so did she.  The story was good also.  One question, what about the agency fee?  Just curious.


Jim, the agency fee was 5,000 RMB just like she had told me.  It is a little expensive but nothing compered to the money I wasted looking for a substandard western woman.  It was the best couple hundred bucks I have ever spent and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Great story, entertaining and amusing except for the GI bleed part. Wishing you well in the future but I see it would just redundant. It is to see the positive outcomes of our adventures also.

Hey Michael, I would like to talk with you about your experience in teaching in China.  I am getting fed-up with some of the crap I have been getting from spiteful women at work.  I fell in love with China and think I could be very happy there with wo de laopo!  I think I might have an ace-in-the-hole. I taught for 14 years at a well known university and was a program chair there.  Teaching is one of my strong areas...

I'll try to drop you a PM when I get a chance.

Peace,
Tom
Many thanks to all of the brotherhood.  I really appreciate the support.  I hope all of you who are still searching find what I have found.  My laopo, she is incredible and I am sure there are more incredible Chinese Women out there just waiting for all of you.  Keep the faith and believe in the dream because it does come true.

Peace,
Tom

Well Vince I think she'll take it all in stride.  She knows I ride a Harley and I've shown her pictures from Bike Week.  Knowing wo de laopo I think she'll have a great time, after all she'll be with "hao lagong"...

Peach,

Tom
