Hot Pot–Perfect for a Cold Chilly Night

Here in Southern China, wintertime temps regularly get to the zeros. It wouldn’t be a problem, my hometown in America gets much colder than that, but things here are aren’t heated. Classrooms, restaurants and most public building don’t have heat. And even worse they like to open the windows or

Granite State of Mind

I came across this video thanks to a friends Facebook page. It’s things like this that make me miss home. And if you are not from New Hampshire, or New England in general, I will apologize as you probably won’t get the jokes. This was just too good to pass

The Fully Sick Rapper

Okay, this has nothing to do with China, or writing or anything I normally talk about. But I love this guy and I had to share. His name is Christiaan VanVuuren and he caught tuberculous while traveling in South America. He was initially quarantined, but was released because they thought
