Face Book





















China really does block Facebook and Blogger. Not officially, but whatever. But we're back and I'm back to blogging. What to say? I wish I had a cargo trike. And the sky is like milky haze. People carry around birds in cages. And they line dance, everybody line dances. Or walzes. Grannies practice tai chi with swords. That's right: Grannies with swords. There are these little restaurants that fish for your dinner right out of the stream: It's that fresh. And ... and ... there is so much, just so much that is China. I was there, but I don't know where. And I only understand, "xie xie", "zao an", "fa piao", "nie hou" and the numbers "yi" to "yi ban". I don't understand, so I guess I can only start little by little to understand you, China. One person at a time. And your people are beautiful.
