A Jet Fighter In Every Driveway, Chicken In Every Pot

We've got our own United Nations our here in Arnoldland, Hillary, so this is Hughes reporting in. Yesterday a Chinese man ran up my back, as they tend to do in Thousand Oaks, and since I am not going to prison for anything, including threatening to overtoss the you know what, here is what took place.


CHINESE GUY
I just got back from China!

HUGHES
Peoples Repbublic of, or Taiwan?

CHINESE GUY
Republic of.

HUGHES
What's the big problem with Taiwan?

CHINESE GUY
We want it back.

HUGHES
They don't want that. You can't do that.
The Chinese Guy shrugged his soulders and went behind the "information counter" of the senior center, perhaps to get some more information, or share tales of his spyin' in China. I guess that is why everyone in Taiwan has a warplane in the driveway. It's kind of like the ongoing HUGHES TOOL COMPANY v. MELLON BANK feud, now d.b.a. Bank of New York.
