This is why emoticons and smileys are inevitably here to stay. You either use them, dumb down your message or risk being greatly misunderstood  |

Hey ChinaMovieMagic,
Do you have that beautiful cat with you in China? I would love to live in China, but a preponderance of people from the China postings said that the Chinese would eat such a wonderful cat as yours, and I can't imagine even letting the thought occur that someone would eat my dearly loved cat.
PM me if you wish.
