SDZ, thanks for your appending. I can't go along with that more. We will pull together, live up to the principle established by Uncle Yeti, and attain our goal to improve English. BTW, what is "走步"?

It seems that you are good at and interested in playing basketball. As for "走步", I haven't got a clear idea, either. Yaoming may come to my rescue.

An entry on PowerWord2005 says:
walk:
(11) Basketball To move illegally while holding the ball; travel.
【篮球】 带球跑，走步：持球时违反规则移动；带球走步

Happy to see you here often, little 熊 .

So that is how it is. Thanks very much, SDZ 树. Depite the same meaning, littlebear looks more lovely than little 熊...... Nice to have an intelligent and diligent companion like you. Ｉwill be on your back every day.

Welcome to be on my back, but not every day, say, at least every other day, or I has to be on my back all day.
What a lovely littler bear!

My supplement: cheapskate; skinflint; miser; pinchfist; stingy; tightfisted(握紧你的拳头); close the purse strings(勒紧钱袋上的绳子); have an itching palm(给钱, 给钱); nurse a nickel(象你的孩子)

生意人都不喜欢被: driven a hard bargain.

The Golden Calf means money which originated from a story in the Bible.

A funny expression:　squeeze the eaglel until it grins

我能想到得中文的相应说法大概有：　铁公鸡，吝啬鬼, 守财奴. 典型的文学形象有 巴尔扎克笔下的葛朗台和莫里哀笔下的阿巴公.

So, SDZ, don't be so stingy to share your love story. Is it true that, once upon a time, a girl trimmed your fingernails? 　

To be honest, I am not willing to be the"铁公鸡". For you have a basket of love stories at hand, if you can share them first, I can be inspired and maybe I can cook up one.
