mingzi 名字
Name.
For those of you paying attention, the mingzi of our blog has changed from the ever-popular, yet little-understood "liang ge meiguron - two americans" to "Shanghai'd" in obvious reference to our current location, and not the verb form meaning to 'render insensible by alcohol or opium and ship on a vessel wanting hands' in reference to the historical practice. Though at times we have felt victim of the later usage here!
