 |

Listen.
I love Korea. I can't help myself. I miss it everyday.
I now live in America and make a heck of a lot more money than I made in Korea. But I miss the joint so much that it's almost painful.
I miss drinking with my father-in-law. Sometimes we'd go through a couple bottles of Scotch--Chivas Regal. Then the old man would make his daughters cook us food while we got hammered. I love that crap!
I don't miss the job. I hate teaching. But I sure miss the country.
I just want to give three cheers to Korea.
I also hope they kick the crap out of France tomorrow--even though I hate soccer.
God bless Korea. I love the place. |

| It's so good to hear about someone who is doing well financially after returning home. What kind of work are you doing now? You're not teaching obviously. There's no money in that back home. I know because I have tried. |

Sounds like you belong in Korea - or maybe the 60s. |

I really don't want to disappoint you. But I drive a truck for the oilfields in Louisiana. I taught for a few years when I got home, but like you said, there's no money in it. |

No joke, my friend. I love the place. Now if I could get my wife to make me food while a drink a bottle of Scotch in America...That would be heaven! |

Cheers to my friend to the south! I didn't realize we Canadians had that much in common with you. Right now it seems like every Canadian guy is heading to Alberta to work on the oil fields. That's where the money seems to be. |

Funny, I'd probably prioritize the chauvenism and misogyny rather than the luck.
Namaste. |

What you call chauvenism and misogyny is what I call marriage.
It's kind of nice. I make the money. She doesn't work.
Occasionally, she has to give me some anju when I decide to get tanked on Scotch.
Man, I wish I was a woman! |

You know there may be something to that. Your avatar seems to be trying to evolve to a woman. Hmmm. Very interesting. |

Pegpig, are you still seeing prostitutes or are you finally dating a woman?
Serious relationships have nothing to do with political correctness.
Women always claim they want Alan Alda when they are really looking for Vin Diesel.
Once you commit, you have responsibilities, and they have responsibilities. It ain't San Francisco kind of liberal stuff. |

Yikes! Alan Alda? I don't know if all that many women would be saying that.
I'm married and I've got 2 hands. No prostitutes for me. |

Getting relationship lessons from a chauvenist strikes me as a rather bad idea.
Namaste. |

I agree.
It's much better to listen to a homosexual who smokes a pipe. |
