Tony wakes up early.

My son Tony, the little bugger, was up four hours earlier than yesterday. I was groggy when he awoke me and still feel so now as I make this blog entry.


I went to the new Ronnie's Australian Bar in Wuxi, China last night. The interior was new and swank, a considerable improvement over the old location. Ronnie's is located near the New Virus a block or so from the Old Carrefour. It is in the midst of a development area to be filled with restaurants, bars and cafes. Walk around this pedestrian mall and you can't miss this tall smokestack saved as a heritage site by the Wuxi local government. The nearby canal, however, is a toxic green color.


Students are telling me about orders from America being cancelled.
