Stuck in Miami
Miss my connecting flight due to snow delay in Chicago, I am now stuck in Miami waiting for the next day flight to Cartagena. Come to think about it, this is the first time I am in Miami. The weather is wonderful, a sharp contrast to the Beijing freezing wind and Chicago snow. But heck, […]
Made-in-China Software
There are many peaks of been a geek in China. One of which is to access to whole set of Made-in-China software that has no equivalence in the English speaking world. I was reformating my old Acer to run Windows 7. The first thing I setup my Windows 7 is not to run Windows Updates […]

Fixing North Korea Mess
Asia politic is something close to me that I followed quite closely although not something I often blog about. Yesterday, I tweet: *doh* When would US clueless hardliner learn how to deal with #China? RT @CNBCtopStories: Knocking Down the China Myth http://bit.ly/bda3m. I am not surprised that Tony Fratto, ex-Deputy Assistant to the President and […]
