It's 'achieve', but yeah, someone kinda blew that one.

Looks like a stock little piece of PR fluff he can pull out of his desk drawer any time it's a slow news day.

Just spent the last week-plus in China - Shanghai, Guangzhou and environs, traveling with relatives. Saw half a dozen E39s floating around, no M5s (based on road and traffic conditions it'd be a complete waste anyway.) In HK for a few days, then home, all this hotel air conditioning is killing my throat...

JEM, hope you had a great time. HK is a nice place to visit especially during this time of the year. I'll be going back in a couple weeks to see family and friends.

Hi John,

I hope you and Eva had a great time in China and Hong Kong. This is a festive time over there so the city lights must be quite impressive. How do you like the food?

I'm not sure it's the hotels' AC that kills your throat. China is notorious for her bad air quality. Every time I visit, I suffer from that also. I didn't notice any BMWs there, just tons of Audis. But that makes sense as Audi is the officail JV partner for the Chineses auto manufacturer.

In any case, welcome back. How's the house coming along?

CP

a great line comes to mind....
If anyone has seen the movie "Rounders" there is a great line in it that i can apply to this wonderful M-powered pile of blahhhh

"How do you feel? Unsatisfied, like that of a quickie?"

man i wish i had the movie here to ensure 100% accuracy on this...but i guess ill just have to look in the "archieve"
