Actually, I don’t understand the episode of, “Without a Trace,” where the Korean daughter tries to get away from tradition and leaves while the son stays and gets so mad that he ends up killing her. For one thing, I know first-born Asian sons and sticking with the family is our lot in life. Second, I don’t know who’d be stupid enough to hit a Korean woman with a stick. You’d have to use a pipe or something. What if you just pissed her off? (I’m being silly here and shouldn’t make light of violence, but I have very good friends who are Korean and we all agree that Korean women frighten us.)
So, I had lamb and couscous at lunch today and it made my stomach hurt. I even bailed on the monthly ham radio meeting and took it easy instead. I mean, that’s probably the excitement of my week — or maybe my month — and I bailed. Heh.
