yeah, but come-on Orpheous, locusts?? the plague? the death of your first born? give me a break. So you liked being in China. Well, good for you. Maybe the next step in your evolution is to allow the yellow peril the right to defend attacks made by snooty white folk with an agenda? White Jasmine-tea believes for some reason that the gong chang dang will make no efforts to improve the pollution problem from last year--as frankly, L.A. did in summer 1984 even without the communist thing. Who is being unfair? and your male-bashing generalizations? Kind of paints you as a man-hater. You might want to take some therapy for that, forgive daddy. Maybe he tried the best he could but couldn't send you all the money you wanted in college...
