Popular Post Sasha Distan Posted February 3, 2017 Author Popular Post Posted February 3, 2017 On a totally different note, a good afternoon wish from Hong Kong, it's just past noon and it is the 7th day of the new Year of the Rooster. Traditionally this is a birthday for all humans - people day - everyone is a year older today ! Happy Birthday all ! I have to stop wishing people a happy new year today - to be fair, they look at me like I’m crazy, because I don't say "happy Chinese new year" and I’m not Chinese. I spent a lot of time explaining to students that I married into a Chinese family, then I get them to remember my last name and they go "Oh yeah...!" like it's some crazy revelation and that I'm not also the person who taught them how to make good stir fry and told them what a wok is.... 6

Sasha Distan Posted February 3, 2017 Author Posted February 3, 2017 It would be so stylish of you to have the last name Wang or Wong, Mr. Wuff it's a common classic four letter short - but not either of those, sorry glitter! 1
Kitt Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Wuff sounds chineese, sort of. Does that make you now Sasha Distan Wuff? 3

Hudson Bartholomew Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 Yukon Quest sled dog race started yesterday in Whitehorse, Yukon. It'll take the teams more than a week to reach the finish line in Alaska. CBC articleYukon Quest - WITH PICTURES!! And a couple from last year... 3
Sasha Distan Posted February 5, 2017 Author Posted February 5, 2017 oh just a little bit! You guys should know by now I don't get any choice in what and who I write. They shout, I type. Sorry. Pretty pups though. On a more topical note, I think people like chapter 23 of Tiger Winter, but as always, happy chapters garner fewer reviews. One more to go ladies, gents, and shifty animal people. 4
Timothy M. Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 I apologize for dropping behind on reviewing the non-rantable chapters. I'll get there eventually. 2

Kitt Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 Surprisingly, after not using my high school french in almost 40 years, I understood most of that article. Fritz is cute! 2

clochette Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 (edited) Every one could submits a name and it was choose by the zoo. Hmmm... maybe we should've proposed Xue, Xue Bear Or did you had it © Edited February 6, 2017 by clochette 2

Hmmm... maybe we should've proposed Xue, Xue Bear Or did you had it © I'm not sure they'd have gone for something many people might find hard to pronounce... would have been super cute though. 1
Kitt Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Next name the panda cub we should submit Xue! Sounds like something a panda would be named. 3

clochette Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Polar bear meets boy dressed as a polar bear. Meta. Sasha, did you dress up little Goblin to go to the zoo? 5
Sasha Distan Posted February 8, 2017 Author Posted February 8, 2017 Sasha, did you dress up little Goblin to go to the zoo? Not yet, but I will one day. He's not that big yet. Hopefully by our next zoo visit he'll be walking well enough to have shoes, so then we might have some fun fancy dress. 3
Sasha Distan Posted February 11, 2017 Author Posted February 11, 2017 And so it's over. The end Lots of people have already asked for a follow up. Generally: no. Jian and Emmett are special, because we have left them so happy and so complete. They can go on plenty of adventures now without us peeking in at their lives. 4

Editor's interpretation of this statement? The boys have stopped shouting at him and wandered off to enjoy life together. That is not to say they will never return, but it is not likely. 4

I am a voyeur, I live vicariously through other people, in this case Emmett and Jian. "The end" - does this mean the end for me as well ?! WAIT a minute, "Innocent Sacrifice" coming soon ... :perks up: but it sounds ominous ! 2

Innocent Sacrifice is a Best Circle of Hell story, but no bloodshed so far. I'll leave you to make your own mind up about that. 3

Jian and Emmett are special, because we have left them so happy and so complete. They can go on plenty of adventures now without us peeking in at their lives. While I love Jian and Em and would love to know what their lives look like in a couple of years, I agree with you about letting them live their lives in peace. I'm all for letting characters have their happily ever after without us poking and prodding at them. Sasha, I'm sure you have plenty of other characters ready and waiting to be shared with us. And I love the Best Circle in Hell series, so I'm excited to see what Innocent Sacrifice brings! 4
clochette Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 Terribly sad news I just read. Fritz - the little polar bear born in Berlin 4 months ago died last night from an hepatitis 1 1
