So I read most everything on the bookshelves around the house. One was <span class="bbc_u">The Ugly American</span> Burdick and Lederer. It was all about how and why US diplomacy failed in Southeast Asia in the late 50s that lead to the Vietnam War. I asked my Dad why he read this because he was pretty much a staunch Republican. He said we have to learn from our mistakes and we obviously haven’t and we’re headed for the same sort of disaster in the middle east. He went on to say that no matter what, we need to respect everyone we meet. Because we don’t know how lousy their day or week or life or country’s history has been. Dad said we are very privileged to be Americans but that doesn’t make us any better than anyone else. And by the way, Tarzan was on Africa’s Atlantic Coast in the jungle, maybe Congo or one of those countries below the bight, and here we’re so very much closer to the Indian Ocean and on high desert.”</span></span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: Georgia;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;"><em>… another passenger boards … sits up front with the driver … we don’t get a good look at them … we embark … driving on the left! … I don’t watch … two lanes and pedestrians and goods for sale … then four lanes … not unlike the Caribbean islands once one gets away from the tourist parts … crushing poverty … why I run my hotels … provide work for those who have enough left to learn and accomplish work … about 30 minutes later, we’re lt off … we tell the driver we’ll use a taxi or Uber to get back … he tells us to stay safe …</em></span></span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: Georgia;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;">  “Which way Peter?”</span></span><br/>
