The Chinese Thing

So far there are a lot of guesses as to what the Chinese Word is, but nobody is guessing WHY it is over there. It's kind of a trick question, because I know that having BEER over there might not need a reason for a lot of people.

Trust me, there's a very good reason I know the Chinese word for BEER and why I have it up in the corner of my blog.

I learned the word when I spent a year in Taiwan a few years ago. It's pronounced something like pee-joe with a soft "j"or actually more like pee-zhoe.

And Tom, you aren't allowed to guess.
