Going away for a while

It's just about time for Spring Festival. And it's time for me to go away for a while. Not far away. Just somewhere North. Don't worry! I'll be back. We'll all be back, right? So for the next couple of weeks, you won't see me posting out here very much. It's time for a rest. 

This doesn't mean that you can't post. You're welcome to. But you won't hear from me as much.

Would you stop a thief?

It's an exciting time of the year in China, right? Spring Festival is just around the corner and most of you will be rendezvousing with your families, enjoying delicious food, maybe receiving a red envelope or two, and resting up before the start of another busy school or work year.

But it's also an exciting time of the year for thieves all over China. They are watching you and waiting to grab something from you. They want your purse, your cell phone, your wallet -- whatever you can give them.
