Hitch

Our good friends Roger and Vee came to visit today in Oxford.

After lunch in a French restaurant, We went to city center rather than original plan, visiting Blenham Palace, since we all know Roger loves books so much. And, he said, how can you imagine that we came to Oxford without going to a bookshop?

After all these, we went to see a movie hitch, acted by Will Smith, a sweet image of lots of girls.

Pun, (I was taught this word by Roger during lunch.) in chinese, we call it, double meaning words or double meaning usage of the word. Hitch is a pun in the film, and the lady actress said to will smith, ''give me a ring sometimes'', that is a pun by the director, isn't it? then she changed to "I mean a call". (just in case he misunderstood it as a pun)

And, all of us like the saying of Alex Hitchens'...
May you never lie, steal, cheat or drink.
But if you must lie, lie in each other's arms.
If you must steal, steal a kiss. If you must cheat, cheat death.
And if you must drink, drink with your friends.

The day was finished in an Italian restaurant, we talked a lot about punctuations in English and other languages, including Chinese.

It has been a very nice day. Like Confucius said, when there are good friends come to visit, isn't that a happiness?
