一点飞上天，黄河两道弯，八字大张口，言字往里走；左一扭，右一扭；左一长，右一长；中间夹个马大王。心字底，月字旁，留个钩搭掛麻糖，推个车车逛咸阳。

这《biang》字我的电脑发不了
说几次就学好了，有58字画：

这《biang biang 面》是陕西特色的面条。面条又宽又长，做好加辣酱。

A Chinese Virtue Is Now the Law
...or so goes the title of a New York Times piece about a week ago.
I find it an interesting reflection upon China's ever-changing structure, as the country becomes more urbanized and less dependent on the rural lifestyle of even a couple generations ago. Tradition is giving way to new ideas and a more modern mentality (except for food, which seems to be one of the few things that isn't changing anytime soon).

Too Much Clutter
I hate it when there's too much on my mind, especially late at night when I'm trying to sleep. My mind needs to be cleared before I sleep, or else I end up with stories like a few posts below...some things are just too hard to shake easily.

Happy (Belated) 4th!
This past July 4th was the first time I had been home for the 4th since high school, and the first time I had gone to see fireworks. We have a really great show here, an all-volunteer set-up that puts on a spectacular show that's choreographed to music.
Of course that's just the end, where they shoot off a ridiculous amount of fireworks. Thanks to Tom and Raveen for getting me a VIP viewing ticket!
Also, no proper 4th of July is celebrated without a funnel cake!
