Yikes!

Now I understood why I got that "special" feeling with my palms on my Macbook Pro laptop. The wire going into the Magnetic plug to my laptop was faulty. This morning, I took a closer look, yellow-ish, burned holes... Yikes!

So the hunt is on to get a new 85W charger for my Macbook Pro. There was an Apple retailer just across the street. I almost had a heart attack, the store wanted RMB1,350 for it! For a US$80 part! Ridiculous. The guy gave me an excuse that it is hard to come by. Wait, that was an apple store right? Ummm..... So will head over to the Cybermart tonight while my iron-wife wines and dines her clients. Let see if I can get it at sub-thousands.

Speaking of Yikes. We are planning to head out for supper with a good friend of iron-wife this Saturday night. To Jade 36. This restaurant is suppose to have a very nice view of the Bund from Shangri-la looking back over the Huangpu River towards our apartment's direction. Well, well, if we were to reserve a non-smoking table, we get NO view! The non-smoking section is next to the door. The smoking section is where all the views are. Go figure. I guess this is China. Haha.
