Cheap Thrills...

Reading a banned book on the subway. My tiny act of subversion for the week was popping open Murder in the High Himalayas on my way across town (thanks for sending, dad!). It's about Chinese military murdering Tibetans trying to escape to religious freedom in India.

This little Chinese boy seated near me showed some interest - "Ooooh - een-geh-lish."

Yeah kid, keep studying. Maybe you can read too someday.
