This is an excellent entry, but I wonder if anyone is curious about the 3 Chinese characters that appear at the top of the page (written on the scroll). I thought they should be included in the list of phrases that follow, but they aren't. FYI, the characters (reading top to bottom) are ming2 tian1 jian4, and they mean "See you tomorrow." When you say it you emphasize the word jian, which sounds sort of like Jen in Jennifer and is the "see [you]" verb. Ming-tian is "tomorrow."
