Who’s The Lucky One?
Today is what we call, in some circles, a ‘good day’. Sundays have consistently been my day off for a long time now, and as such they are generally the day I can be found in front of my computer, in my pajamas, drinking my fifth or sixth cup of coffee, unshaven and unshowered at …
How to add a cool pinyin mouseover tooltip for WordPress
Alright, this post is admittedly narrow in the scope of people that might find it interesting, but with all the new in-China blogs starting up, I figured I’d throw a little help their way.
