"He taught him horsemanship, archery and how to wield lasso, rein and stirrup, and what and when and how, the rites of of convivial society, of formal ceremony and the symposium; hawking, falconry and how to hunt with the cheetah; what was justice or the lack of it; what the throne and the crown meant; how to deliver orations and how to go to war and lead an army."

Banned in Beijing
Terrierman Patrick Burns seems inordinately proud of the fact that his blog has been banned by the Chinese government. Steve wants to know what we're doing wrong that they haven't banned us.
Hehe. Awesome. Is there some way to find out what sites are banned without, um, going to China? (Alas, I think my little art blog probably doesn't do enough to oppose communism.=p)

Very proud indeed. This is better than being made Time Man of the Year in 2006 ;)

O&P have successfully been censored! Steve, when I tried you, it told me you were blocked. Moro, try it here: http://greatfirewallofchina.org/test/
I did the search. It seems folks in China CAN see my blog. (But I guess that's not so bad, either...)
Hey, we're blocked, too! And I didn't even thing we were being read... ;) I bet it's because I made Tibet one of the answers for the Akbash poll.
