In my previous mail, I forgot to say that a customer just discovered
a hand of a baby in his bowl of pho+?.  It was not clear how the hand
got into his bowl.  Whether they killed the baby for meat or just used
various parts of the dead bodies.

So far 2 people have confirmed my story.  Well, one just said that boby
parts were used but it was a rare incident.  It was was true, I feel that
I could understand it and not blaming anyone for such a "babarian" act.
It's just like when I read a story a few years ago on "Tien Phong"
magarzine (?) about a VNmese teenager boy who was the only survivor
on his 80+ people fishing boat.  He admitted that he had to eat the human
flesh of those died.  I just don't know what I would do in his
case, perhaps I would do the same thing.

It bothers me that a disaster of this magnitude is not reported in details
in any books, in Vietnamese or any other language (at least I am not aware
of any).  There was no documentary film about this famine.  And perhaps
no studies about this period to confirm or deny many reported stories.

My parents, 15 years old then, told me that people died like "ra.".  They
died on the street, so fast that people could not dig graves fast enough.
And that people were so hungry to dig graves for the dead.  People would
spend most of their time sleeping to forget about the hunger.
My grandparent's families all survived because they had enough rice in
storage.  They had to hide their foods away fearing that others would
come and beg for food or perhaps stole their food.  They could only have
one meal a day, mostly rice mixed with yam.  So my father, a growing boy,
was always shaking with his teeth clapping because he was so hungry.
For poor people there was nothing to eat, not even grass and leaves.

A man falls in love with his proctologist and doesn't know what to do
about it.  So, he goes to his psychologist seeking advice.  The
psychologist tells him that he should communicate his affections to the
proctologist and that men who are enamored with someone usually send
flowers, cards, candy - that sort of thing.  But he especially stresses
that the man should talk to the proctologist directly, and not be
mysterious about his feelings.  He also cautions the man that the
proctologist might not be interested in a relationship, so be prepared
to deal with that possibility.

The man thinks the psychologist's advice sound, so he schedules an
appointment with the proctologist and plans to break the news during the
appointment.

On the scheduled day, the man arrives at his proctologist's office and the
examination commences.  The proctologist places the scope up the man's
rectum and looks into it.

Then the proctologist steps back and exclaims, "My god man, you have a
dosen red roses stuffed up your ass!"

The patient looks back over his shoulder and replies, "Did you read the
card?"

  IMHO, "Oriental" refers to the mystique feature while "asian"
is more readily accepted because it does not have that connotation.
Many asian-americans don't like being called Oriental since most of
them are born in America, and the fact that they are referred to as
Oriental is regarded as a racial insult.

Readers:

Despite my previous clarifications, still mail comes to me inquiring
about recent SCV messages sent with my names.  So, once again I'd
like to make it clear and concise.  Hope you all understand.

1.- Except the two messages sent thru MIT relay service with IDs
    <1992 Aug25.184343.2690> and <1992Aug26.170653.21855> and this
    very message, all other were FAKED and NOT sent from my accounts.

2.- The alleged accusations are a damned pack of mischievous LIES.
    Please do not let your mind believe in fabricated stories such
    as I were married or Diep were harassing me.  Use your common
    sense when read the language in those messages.
