Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Due to Harpy’s visit, there are oodles of the red ‘n white along the main thoroughfare that transects Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City.

Though the maple leaf looked a bit small on the flag… hmmmm… significance? Maybe if Stevo sidles up nicely to the Chinese, the leaf will be bigger next time around…

Another yummy and spicy dinner last night… at a nice spot called South Beauty -they serve some heat that would melt lead!

On my way home – Trashy in China, Part 12 Arghh! The robot is following me! Trashy in China, Part 10

Cedars Tour de Lance

Hi all:

I have never solicited funds for any cause whatsoever on this site, but that is ending now, and I hope you can help.

Cuz this is family.

Brian Millar is my wife's cousin whose health has been nuked by cancer. The guy was living the life - his life - as a 20-something, when this merciless disease hit him. And hit him hard.

Chemo. Radiation. He's been down all those roads and right now Brian is on a bit of a dip in that road. But it is one that we are all sure he will rise from.

Brian took this disease and said: "Look. I'm going to make this into something positive and raise a shitload of money so I can ride with Lance Armstrong in the name of cancer research."

Brave frickin' dudes, both of them. Lance conquered testicular cancer a while back and has become a general leading the war against this horrific monster of a disease. And Brian is still kicking back at the sonofabitch.

So, here's the "ask". Please go to the site and decide if this is worth a few bucks or even just posting this link on your site. Colleen (the Resident Love Goddess) and I we want to help and this is the best way I can right now.

Do what you can for Brian and his family. Because man, this is Hell for them. And if they can raise enough funds, maybe their Hell will be a little less painful.

Thanks,

Trashy.
