[QUOTE="Rybaer, post: 1100775, member: 118"] Dennis Guffey, an American tourist in Hong Kong, had just finished a hard morning of hiking through the foreign city looking at the sites and looking for lunch. In just over a week in town, he'd tried his share of the local delicacies and found that he just didn't quite have the acquired taste necessary to enjoy them. There were lots of foods that looked "Chinese", but tasted little like the fare he was used to eating at the "Wok on Fire" cafe down at the Fox River Mall. [i]Tsou Tsung's Burgers[/i] the sign ahead of him proclaimed. "Hmmm," he thinks to himself, "a good fast food burger joint, yet still with that local flavor. Sounds like a good compromise." The cartoonish statue of a fat, bald chinese man on top of the building even reminds him of a Burger Boy in a way. While a cute Chinese girl is taking his order, some nut jumped up on a table and started spewing prophetic rantings. "I guess Hong Kong has the same crazy apocolypic prophets as we do back in the States," he explains conversationally to the young girl. "We've got a guy just like that who's always harassing people down at the corner of Waubash and Packers Ave." Dennis picks up his tray (Tsou Tsung's Super Ultimate Burger with Mega size fries) and starts toward the drink dispensor when the crazy prophet pointed right at him and asked, "Will you join us?" Dennis starts to wonder whether this was a crazy man or not. Maybe it is the beginning of a street theater performance...like the one he'd seen in Disneyland when all these performed just appeared out of the crowd and did an impromptu performance. He is about to give the man a sarcastic answer, but a different customer jumps up and started chastizing the guy on the table as a lunatic. "Ok," Dennis thinks, "guess I was right in the first place." Keeping half an eye on the developing situation, he starts to fill his glass with ice and Coke. [/QUOTE]
