Resource for the Serious Shopper

OK, serious shoppers, you've got to see this: Shop Wiki> provides you the ideal tool for your online shopping needs. It crawls the internet for all the shops available online, and opens up for you a truly broad, practically inexhaustible shopping experience.

Say you are looking for girls' clothing. You key in your search terms, and it draws up a great list — in this case, an extensive buying guide explaining how to choose your product carefully when buying online. (And that's an especially useful skill when buying clothes online — I do it all the time, and have learned that there is a fine art to it!) If you are, for instance, looking for girls' skiwear, you type in "girls skiwear" for your search, and it takes you to a page with tons of options, like the one linked here. And all these items come from shops all over the internet.

Unlike regular search engines like Google, your search results aren't topped by paid listings, but by those that are most suitable for the terms you input. It makes shopping online much easier and more convenient.

Pop by and try it out. It can revolutionize the way you go about your online purchases.

Prayer

My blogging friend has started a new blog called Prayer Corner. You can go there and request prayers, "no strings attached."

Stop in if you are needed a prayer offered on your behalf. If you prefer, you can email him at prayercorner [at] ymail.com to request your prayer. (You'll have to change that to a workable address.)

Tai Shan

I've been invited by Sloth Jockey to begin a new blog there. I am excited about this, and have agreed to set up a new blog called Tai Shan.

At this new blog, I'll be writing about my experience in and with China, and about all things Chinese. I think it should be lots of fun, and I hope you will come along and enjoy the experience with me!

Travels

Touring a nation
Recording one's
Adventures in a journal
Valuable moments
Expended with the pen
Logging memories of
Spectacular sights

In My Garage

There are so many uses for garages that it is really unbelievable. You can convert it into a (hopefully soundproof) place for the kids to practice with their new band. Or you can use it as a work space for whatever hobby you have. Or perhaps you like the traditional keep-the-car-safe option.

For my family, the garage serves a few purposes. It is the laundry room. It is where we keep the huge deep freeze (in which two or three of us could easily fit), so that any excess of food can be kept for the next generation to see what food we eat these days. We keep both cars there, and it is a general storage area for all manner of very valuable junk.

But, primarily, it is our entrance to the house. We seldom use the front door, and almost everyone walks in through the garage and into the back door. Yes.... that means they weave their way through the very valuable junk, between two cars, past our laundry (clean or dirty), past the hulking deep freeze, and into to the door. It is, I suppose, what makes our guests feel like family.

New Blog

At last I've gone and done what I thought I'd never do
And so here I am today to introduce to you
A new site that I am keeping, in my own given name
Advancing to the next step in this great blogging game
Stop by and see me whenever you've got the time
Drop me a note, say hi, and tell me you're doing fine
There won't be any lame poetry it the posts over there
So if you're more used to this blog, it'll be a breath of fresh air
I'll write mostly about movies, books, and that sort of thing
And we'll see what sort of interest this new place will bring
