This blog is partly devoted to the sharing of my learning of the English language (my well mastered mother tongue is Chinese and I am not an English teacher) and its *cultures*, partly to the current significant trends in Canada and in the world, and partly to my own random thoughts and little life. I am not religious, but I am somewhat interested in Christianity and Buddhism, among other personal interests. Welcome. And, have a good day.

See http://www.forbes.com/profile/richard-elman/ .
How grieved he must feel when he looks back to his puzzled scrapyard "coolie" years, I guess.
