The most amazingly unbelievable of them all: Last Wednesday the 18th, I literally bumped into Salma, a class mate from Junior High, on a street corner in Shinjuku. We used to run track together back in ... Grade 8 -- Hawthorne Hawks!
How strange that we all love Canada, but in the meantime are so far away from Him. Only in the years since I left Him did I fully realize just how valuable my passport is. We get to be in South Korea for 6 months without a visa, the longest of all countries.
Vive le Canada!
Ethan, Salma, Daryl's Hands (sorry the cell phone was out of battery)
Definitely respect you guys are trying to do. Hopefully I can make it to Africa.

Small World - Canadians, it's amazing how we manage to find each other in faraway lands.
Small world – That's for sure - Here are some more examples:
I am here in an English Dept at one of HK higher institutions and I have recently run into a Visiting Professor from Uni of Toronto who happened to be Sima’s (who came to have dinner with us in 2000?) thesis supervisor, and happened to serve as member on Mari’s thesis committee, both back in the early 80s. So the professor said to me, “What a small world…”
Another prof. from York Uni in Toronto is here too, doing some kind of program promotion
Still another (Canadian) who graduated from Carleton has been working here for several years now…
