Right On The Money

So, food-poisoning and neon green vomit are scary/nasty/disgusting. I'm still not feeling quite right after a bout of gastro. That's right, 'woe is me' and all that. On the subject of cliches, what about 'have wheels... will travel'. What about 'have wheels... but can't travel due to being stranded on a tiny over-populated island and having no cash?' Yeah. No road trips for us here in Hong Kong. Not unless that road trip involves an aircraft... doesn't quite have the same ring to it.

So, first and foremost, it's time to cut to the chase, so to speak, and quit crying all the way to the bank... in fact, quit while you're ahead. When there's slim pickings, perhaps it's time to eat your heart out instead instead of wining and dining. That is, watch the wallet, and drink nothing but all the tea in China in order to save some shiny new dimes, because there's a light at the end of the tunnel, and every cloud has a silver lining. So, let the good times roll! We can 'pay as you go' for a change of scene, because time is money, and money is the root of all evil, and in a jiffy we'll be higher than a kite on the way to some far-off place (if the price is right) and this'll all be just a bad dream.
