My friend's restaraunt burned down yesterday, we heard it on the fire radio and went into town to help.
Their English isn't good, but they are the best of people, and not stupid. But when the fire started, they didn't pick up the phone and dial 911, but they ran next door to the firehouse. The only problem was, in these days of increased security, they couldn't find an unlocked way in so soon Chinese were running hysterically in circles around the firehouse screaming in Cantonese 'cause only one knows any English at all. Meanwhile, the customers are all leaving, including the codes inspector who eats there every day and who finally calls the fire department who, in their haste to get to the call, just about run over yeah-yeah and ni-ni (grandpa and grandma).
Just another typical day in KANSAS!
