Strangest email of the day, from a car-hater ...
I sez:
I got one on the same topic (sort of) too, from a Chinese friend. It's rather humorous ...
<<The imperialist's new video game - adventurous spying>>
A U.S spy plane flying around China's Hainan Island, was tallied by a Chinese jet plane. The two planes collided. The Chinese one fell into the ocean and disappeared; the U.S plane was forced to conduct emergency landing on the island.
The following is the response on the U.S side:
""I think they were more confused in Beijing than we are in Washington," a senior defense official said. "
<<Well, if you walk around the street and got beaten up out of nowhere, shouldn't you be confused if not outraged?>>
""Failure of the Chinese government to react promptly to our request," Mr. Bush said, "is inconsistent with standard diplomatic practice and with the expressed desire of both our countries for better relations." "
<<A "better relations" means I send a spy plane to your country, kill your people, and you still have to politely return the killers and their killing machine.>>
"An administration official said the Chinese had "already missed an opportunity to improve relations by [not] announcing right away that they would return the crew." Each hour that goes by, he said, "only makes things worse." "
<<Yes, when the Chinese caught the plane, they should have brought it home, treat the crew member a nice meal like the luxurious sharp fin soup, and give them whatever they are looking for, so they don't have to waste energy to sniff around.>>
A lesson for our kids:
If you want to know what's going on in your neighbor's house, you send in a dog. Let it sniff around and hopefully bring home some useful information like where the money is, how much they have in their bank account, or even their sexual habit for your amusement. If unfortunately the dog gets caught and bites the owner. Don't panic!! Bring a loudspeaker and stage a protest in front of their house. Demand the immediate return of your dog and do not forget to threaten to call the cop and animal rights' activists!!
