Favorite entries? Mine is this one: volleyball.teamusa.org/blog/post/226"So I pulled out the trump card and called Jenny; I asked her to speak Chinese to the taxi driver and direct him to the correct venue. I handed him the phone and they began to converse, I could tell that he understood and that we were headed in the right direction. As he gave me my phone back I told him, “Lang Ping – Ping Lang.” Well he about wrecked the car. He was so excited like a little kid who had just spoken to his hero. He kept asking me, “Lang Ping? Lang Ping?” I kept answering in the affirmative. Then I called Jenny back and told her that she had just made this man’s day and to talk to him one more time to confirm who she was. She graciously did and the man was so happy. He hung up and just beamed, and then he called someone and spoke really fast Chinese. You gotta do what you gotta do."
