China not only has everything old, the country seems to have a few new things as well, kinda.

A sexy turtle with an hour glass figured (sexy for a turtle, I suppose) was brought to a flower and fish market in Anhui province. (later, it ended up in someone’s soup?)  The shape is actually called curcurbit.

Yeah, like I knew that off the top of my head.

While the turtle was trying to run, crawl, mosey away for its life, another animal, a monkey, was doing the Western slow drink of death….drinking a Pepsi.

I have nothing against Pepsi in particular. I think all soft drinks are poison.

And…speaking of poison, some dude with way too much time on his hands has been collecting cigarette wrappers for 10 years…to the tune of 10,000 packaging papers, separated into historical reminders, different countries and priceless keepsakes. 20 smokes to a pack x 10,000 = a lot of dead people.

Finally…. two guys in Shanghai have painted themselves gold and are standing around getting their picture taken….much like the silver dudes at the wharf in San Francisco. But…can they do a robot dance?
