You have to laugh....

A good friend of mine is in the hospital here in HK. Sally and I went to visit him this morning to take a care package of Krispy Kremes. He in in a semi-private room. The other patient is a guy from Chile, via So. Carolina, who works building a new US Embassy in Beijing. He is a real nice guy and mentioned that he had been given a Chinese name. It was Tai Mai Shu. However, it sounds just like "Tie my shoe". We had to laugh!
