Beijing survival rules

1. Crossing roads: wait until the green man is flashing, which means run the gauntlet of crazed taxi drivers who consider it double points for pedestrians and triple for westerners! 2. Queuing: actually "ku'ing" is a martial art, only the fastest, meanest, kick ass survive...

In No Particular Order, II
