orange county comes to china

no, not the horrible collin hanks/jack black flick. think planned communities and stucco sprwal...

"what is on sale here is not just a dwelling but a dream — one that is just a fantasy for most chinese, who make well under $500 a month. as in the case of its namesake, orange county (china) is mostly a haven for conservative lawyers, businesspeople and celebrities, looking for a peaceful place to rear children."

i've stated on several occasions that the japanese scare me. i take that back, now all asians frighten me.
