When I first read this, I was not sure who eats whom. If you put man in plural, you get "men eating sharks in the sea", which completely changes the meaning. The standard form is man-eating, which avoids confusion of who eats whom.Originally Posted by arsenal

When you're in the water with the shark, there's no confusion I can assure you!

Well, according to my client who lives in China, they're about to invade Taiwan and Australia at any moment now.
I keep trying to caml him down, but he's not having it. I keep telling him, nobody is picking a fight with the US -- he just doesn't want to belive me though.
China, Russia, Pakistan, Iran and North Korea verses America, the UK, India, Japan, Australia, South Korea and an initially semi involved France.
Exactly. I keep trying to convince my friend that if that war ever breaks out, it'll last a week, and I can't possibly believe the leadership in Beijinh is stupid enough to pull the trigger.
You're in China, right? Is there anything you're seeing on your end that I'm not seeing? This is a 38 year old wealthy businessman, so why is he flipping out like this? Is there something that's showing up in your end of the world that I don't see?
What, may I ask, has this to do with getting arrested in Thailand?
That's probably the same question the judge asked him during his trial.

Many things perhaps.
When I ask him he just says "the propoganda is ramping up", and that's all I get out of him.
I have a very difficult time believing the Chinese military leadership is stupid enough to pull the trigger and invade Taiwan. I know they want to, but I can't see them actually doing it.
Is there something I'm missing here? All looks calm on my radar, but my friend is spooked for some reason.
Someone's fishin but they ain't bitin however much bait you chuck in the water.
