Every now and then I dangle visions of mft's culinary creations before FCP. Well, here's a little levity to all that: Taco John's tacos, some absolutely great hot and sour soup from the "China Garden," a Chinese family-owned restaurant in Belle Fourche, South Dakota, and a six pack of Moose Drool, Brown Ale (thank you Big Sky Brewery). So we have shitty hack-Tex-Mex, great Hot and Sour soup, and plenty of glorious beer. While I was waiting in the China Garden for my to-go order of soup, a couple Belle Fourche locals came in and said to the Chinese owner, "Ola!" There's quite the cultural confluence going on in this little town of 5,000.

Except the chinese food, sounds like fun enough. I'll be back in the USA soon enough to plan to partake.
They have good Hot & Sour soup down by the Rio Grande?
Three slightly chunky Anglo-American girls walked into Belle Fourche's "China Garden" and said to the Chinese owner, "Ola!" I couldn't help but smile, chuckle aloud a bit, and turn away. Isn't it Ne-how, nowadays, rather than Ola? I guess we're all from this fucking planet, so we might as well start crossing linguistic borders and such.
...I'll be back in the USA soon enough...
JJ, we'll get the band and red carpet ready, and have 'em all waiting on the outskirts of town. The entire country is waiting for your return...
More seriously, if you ever make it up my way, give a shout. I can put you up.

AA, thank you for the addendum.
In that part of the land, if they had greeted him with "Ni Hau, Lauban" chances are they would be fans of Firefly.
