Perfect cool temp to run my 92nd 5K✔️ No rabbit🐰 today, so I was much slower. Still running for my sister Esther 文君 to be back on her feet, run and dance up a storm. Go, Esther go!

Extra grateful to touch down at DCA @Reagan_Airport tonight and see my 20-y-o son at the curb. He gave me such a squeeze that it hurt.

家弟刚出炉的新作。多应景啊！赶紧读下！My brother's fresh-off-the-press piece about the history of the Shaolin Temple, perfect timing as the scandal about the head monk just broke. mp.weixin.qq.com/s/gZWG_hWngh...

达摩李世民俞大猷石友三释永信——千年少林寺五大关键人物

少林少林，有多少英雄好汉把你景仰！作为看着《少林寺》长大的七零后，我与少林寺还是有渊源的。然而少林寺与少林功夫究竟如何？余不惑之后方才明白。

I've been drinking this for 4 years now but didn't pay much attention to its name. What a coincidence to enjoy a fantastic Tiffany tea named 727 on 7.27.

The best way to treat jetlag is to run. Today's 82nd 5K did just that. Also trying to reduce the expanded waistline from all the pasta and 🍞 from Italy 🇮🇹. 朋友，你今天运动了吗？
