Depending on the time, place, and situation, you might be on an express or a freight elevator. One minute you have an unfettered view for miles around, experiencing a natural high like Slim Pickens riding the rocket bomb in Dr. Strangelove (1964) and the next you might find yourself rummaging around in the dark basement. Unlike a rollercoaster, the ups and downs of life are NOT predictable. One minute you’re sailing into the stratosphere and the next you’re in an underground tunnel without light on either end–that’s life on Earth! I have always been under the impression that the people of South Korea like Americans, until I spent some time there. It didn’t take me long to discover that, at least some college students, had no use for us at all! Though I have been known to like a cocktail or two, I do not like a rain of Molotov cocktails! For that matter, when it comes to food, I am not fond of raw squid or Kimchi. I prefer the white pizza in Rome where I can dine on a red and white checkered tablecloth at a sidewalk cafe with the woman of my dreams.
