As you many of you may know, and as the rest of you can now see, I live here in Beijing. I know the city like the back of my hand. (which is to say, better than I know my feet, but not quite as well as I know my chin.)

So if any of you are in town for the Olympics, drop me a line at austininchina@hotmail.com and I can give you advice on anything from where to find the oldest temple or $1 Jager Shots, or the best Cassoulet in town. I can also help you get past those pesky Chinese internet censors.

Also, although I'm being worked like a slave, if our schedules match up, I'm always up for a BEER.

I'd be the first to buy, if I were there.

How nice of you. I hope someone can meet up with you.
