Xi'an...more like Xi'ain't

We'll make this short and sweet. We are here in the famous little town (3 million people) of Xi'an, home of the Terracotta Warriors. We were very excited to get here and see this world heritage sight. Amazing, it was. But this place is no Beijing. We have not seen drunks in the streets since a continent ago. WOW...seems like ages. We have not seen beggers in while either so they tend to offend you senses. You do not want to dislike people who are so nice and have smiles on their face but they constantly have their hands in your pocket.

Xi'an...XI'AIN'T!!!!

The place is alright compared to Moscow and that is not saying much.

We are heading south and where exactly we are not sure. It is turning fall here and getting cold quick. It's Friday and it feels like we are getting ready to head out to a high school football game and eat chili frito pie...big ups to the Oologah lunch ladies! (that means hello)

Thailand? Sounds Thai-riffic!!!!

Bangkok? ... sounds more like... um, a venereal disease you can get from visiting a Thai massage parlor. That's not a pun, just a wry observation.

I returned to Dallas last week to find a Chinese postcard waiting for me. Thanks a lot. Now I'm sure the U.S. government will be tracking my movements due to my association with "foreign agents" in Beijing.

Thailand sounds great. I hear the people there are thin and attractive, the crime rate is lower than it is in China, and the noodles are spicy and tasty. Just make sure that you stay as far away from the Burmese border as possible.

Junta... more like don't-a!
