favorite quote from this week’s season finale of the now-renewed-for-a-second-season Flight of the Conchords. yay! 2nd favorite quote: “we shouldn’t argue in front of the map [of NZ]. it isn’t right.”

anyway, i’ve just put up some pictures of my first day in Beijing on .mac (easier to get to than flickr from here). hopefully i’ll get to take more in Dalian, where i’m headed this evening. [warning: the .mac gallery isn't working for me with firefox 3 trunk builds, but it's hard to tell whether that's because of a browser problem or our slightly wacky network situation here in BJ.]
