Steve is coming in less than 36 hours. Clint will be here Friday night for one week. Then the Norwegian Panda Enthusiast will make his long awaited return to Shanghai, this time with some spending money in his pockets. Then in May, Ham Sap Joe will also be coming.

But Ham Sap Joe is coming anyway, because…he’s Ham Sap Joe.
