MONDAY!  This is it folks.  It's the final countdown with just one week left for us in the the good ol' land of Brittany Spears and crotchless panties!  The empire of China is waiting for us - and so are their secret police!  The Riding4Beer China Tour 2011 starts next Tuesday and you'll get to read about it (and see about it in pictures) everyday right here on this very website.

Here's the deal.  We'll be traveling light with just one small bag each - because that makes for the easiest and fastest getaways.   So, packing, as always, is an issue.  Kevin wants to take most of his porn collection - both magazines and DVD's, and Stacy keeps finding more things to take that need batteries if ya'll know what we mean.  Anyway, it's doubtful any of that sh-t will make it past the political inspections at the immigration in Shanghai, but it's always fun to watch them thump that little rubber rabbit with a questioning look.

In the meantime, we've ordered up some "funny money" from our bank with pictures of Mao, we've got our shots and prescriptions for weird a-- drugs and we're trying to get it all stuffed into two little bags for a couple of months of Chinese traveling.  Just a week to go and the pile is still twice the size of the bags.   Okay, maybe we'll eliminate our underwear and the porn stays in the bags...

            
               What is all this sh-t!                     A little walkin' around money!          Because Malaria is the silent killer!
