Drive Me, Crazy: Beijing's Strangest Black Cab?

Need a driver? One of our staff did the other night, and with official cabs as thin on the ground as ever, he ended up taking the first hei che that came along. This is the driver's business card.

And this is the other side.

Why does it say "Ganges," our colleague asked. "I used to work in Ganges, but now I don't," Driver Bean explained.

Many other questions remain. Why does Bean have three names? Is he a real wizard? Or is that just one of his many "amateur" pursuits? We also assume that the "drunk" is the passenger being driven home after a night out, and not Bean himself.

Well, if you need a lawyer, some magic or just a car to take you from A to B, Bean is just a phone call away. "Tell your friends," he said. And so we did.

Is this the best business card ever? Tell us about the best you've seen in Beijing using the comments below.

Best business card ever--wish I still had it.

"Contact [name] for stuff."
"[phone number]"

Got it from African guy handing them out on the sly on Gongti Lu, west of Yashow.
