Barry in Beijing

My friend Mark highlighted Dave Barry's series he's written during his time in Beijing for the Olympics. I think you'll find it hilarious, and if you're a non-Chinese person who's ever spent time in China you might fall off your chair laughing. Not because it's just so funny, but because it's just so true!
