Behind the Great Firewall of China

I'm now behind the Great (Fire)wall of China :(

Half the blog sites I click on return error messages. I can't even begin to imagine how many other sites don't work.

It's one thing to read and blog about it, another thing to experience it altogether.

How do guys like Rick Martin live with it? The sheer hell...

This sucks and I have to bear with it for another 10 days :( So what if I have a nice five-star hotel and free broadband? Especially when I can't access my own personal blog on Wordpress. !@#$%^&*(
