Happiness"Ma Li couldn't tell me exactly why she had left her home town after graduating from the local teachers union. 'There was something in the heart,' she said. 'My mother says that I just won't be satisfied with a happy life. She says that I'm determined to be chiku - eat bitter.'"- Peter Hessler, Boomtown Girl, New Yorker, May 28, 2001One has to choose happiness. I'm only just now figuring this out.

Skeptical Americans put their position to the test." Update: It's a repeat [thanks Steve] and here's the real audio [thanks Aaron]. Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Self-Portrait, 1882-83. The day before yesterday? By any other name. |
