Dan in La Crosse

A Midwestern voice in the Midwest. Once I lived in China and was Dan in China, a Midwestern voice in the Far East. Now I live in La Crosse and am Dan in La Crosse, a Midwestern voice in the Midwest. How novel.

Chinglish

Everywhere in China are signs roughly, very roughly translated from Chinese into English. Many of my students wear clothes with slogans so discombobulatedly confusing that you'd swear George W. Bush composed them. This morning, after my run, I was swinging on a group swing, chowing some sausage dumplings, when two of my itty-bitty friends, a boy and a girl, came over and started swinging with me. The boy wore a shirt that read, "No gtus, no glory." Words to live by.
