English or Tingbudonghua?

Been "out of blog" and canceling meetings, etc for the past few days. I have been pretty busy with preparations for my travels to China this week, and compounded by having to make arrangements for my wife's birthday party that just happened today.

I have secretly been lurking at the Talk Talk China blog, enjoying sarcastic laowai ripping China (all in good spirit of course). Since I'm heading off with my buhao Chinese in a few days, this recent post raises the question: English, or Chinese? or maybe what I really have to choose from is English or tingbudonghua...:)
