@sagebrennan Seven, now that you ask.
@andrewpickup Perhaps not. But *I* know how to buy drinks. Love to buy one for you next time I'm there. Two weeks at Chinese New Year.
Packing China airport survival kit: 2 fully charged iPhones (1 acts as a Touch), BlackBerry, fully charged laptop, 3 New Yorkers.
@bokane Thanks. Got that image well in my head now.
@maoxian One more non-disposable thing to carry. If I want stuff from the archives I have about two years of unread crap on the HDD already.
@andrewpickup I'm shocked that Paul & Co. can't organize drinks. In my experience he's a natural.
To Shanghai tomorrow, back Wednesday, during two days of crap weather. Anticipate eternity of airport delays.
I've met the dog. This is true: RT @sagebrennan: "If our dog could wear panties, they'd be in a wad all the time." (via @reneecolette)
@charlieflint That would be spooky. But I got the cat part covered.

Always love pulling cat hair out of my lunch box. Yum.
You know you're in trouble if your own mom is pressuring you to give back federal bailout money. WSJ on Ken Lewis: http://online.wsj.com/article... (sub)
@stinson Granted. It's just that they're not alone in ignominy. Do you think a rewrite might help? Or is two fen just not newsworthy?
@chinabuzz Sure. If you're a 38 year old semi-rural midwestern accountant.
@stinson All the trivia that's fit to print. In China Daily's defense, was a Beijing Youth Daily and silly Internet topic before that.
Um, is this a trick question? Reading @chinarealtime Will GQ Be Less Edgy in China? http://blogs.wsj.com/chinare...
Was snowing in Dawang Lu this morning when I left for work. Just looks damp at the office.
@She_Dupree Yes, I do. But only when the air is relatively clear. So, for instance, not at all during the last week.
@kembree Hey, for a brunch like that, I might go in drag.
On my run this morning, a lovely sound: Wind through dry poplar leaves on Jintai West. Nice after a breeze-less week.
Taught my son to say, "fugly" today. My proudest moment as a parent so far.
Speaking of fugly, the wind is blowing and the air is clearing up. Thank heavens.
@stinson After you clean the skull scarves out of Tianjin you can get to work on the ones in Beijing.
Draft of my column is done. Now getting ready for Chinese lesson. What happened to my weekend?
Better than thuggery: Reading @pmdfoster's blog: Killed by the kindness of a Chinese propaganda department. http://is.gd/4PoyZ
Art of calibrating a bun to size and moisture content of a burger is unappreciated, alas. Like choosing right concrete for a foundation.
@peterschloss Man, you landed gentry have it so easy out there in your rural idyll.
Day 3 of 500+ AQI. Can't see out of windows. Don't know if civilization still exists. If anyone is out there, send message. And beer.
Bored of AQI labels. Propose: 0-50: Sweet. 51-100: Bracing. 101-200: Scruffy. 201-300: Eye-spank. 301-400: Ass. 401-500: Indeadulating.
@pdenlinger Yes, but defensibly so.
