From "Crazia For Asia - A Traveler Remembers"
by A. Smith

NOTES FROM SEOUL

· People who see me on the street call me "Mr. Gates" and then start screaming about their laptop browsers. I smile knowingly and say: "Ain't it a pip, Frenchy?"

· Gentle raindrops on my hotel window sound eerily like my cat taking a leak on my Jesus Jones CD.

· Smoking is very much welcomed in Korea. Rapid-fire belching less so.

· They play a game here called "Let's jam six more bodies into the elevator before the door closes." My team keeps winning.

· Apparently, taking another person's business card and swallowing it is considered bad form.

• Free Verse Composition
• Droplets of sun will calm your soul and leave you longing for tears of joy with visions of paradise while sailing the Indian Ocean alongside gentle dreams toward a delicious taste of chocolate until your tea party becomes corrupted or your Daewoo burns bright and the impurities choke your breath of life.
