tanithryudoWritten by an Associated Press journalist. Covers mainly the day to day stuff in Beijing rather than Olympics oriented. Looks like it's being updated daily. I found it hilarious.

Note that the most recent entries are added at the top. So it may seem disjointed if you try reading it top to bottom instead of bottom to top.
I love the bit about getting his haircut from some overpass volunteer guard. "...I asked him, mainly through gestures, to do me." *snicker*
And the bit about Chinese men liking to roll up their shirts in the heat. (My dad does that at home sometimes too... -_-)
EDIT: HAHAHA! This one is hilarious too. Poor hockey teams and their mismatched undies. BWAHAHA.
