"But we will all be taken down with it."

Wow. You know you're getting old when they send another batch of GCers to "your" SST country. All you young'ns heading off on China SST: do not fear. In a few days the Yoder/Beachy/Dyck trifecta will be in full effect, here in our nation's capital, and we will lay out for you the Tips and Tricks to Rocking China SST. We will cover such topics as "Pijiu: Friend or Foe?", "No, I Do Not Need/Want a Chinese Husband/Wife" and "Tai Gui Le! A Guide to Bargaining (For Fun And Profit)". Also look out for bonus chapters on "Surviving English Corner", "The Waiban: Getting In, Getting Out" and "Looking For Love In All the Wrong Places: Following Your Moral Compass In a Strange Land". And no, I won't be writing that last one.
