I've been a BIG fan of Ed Lin since "Waylaid" and I recently met him at his open mic night at the Asian Writers Workshop with his co-host Jen Kwok - and I was totally starstruck! I think that's hilarious the rat as the anti-spitting spokes-animal.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14131751008595637977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6841257941461491047.post-87872716148730341522010-09-08T13:48:13.407-04:002010-09-08T13:48:13.407-04:00There used to be stenciled signs on the subway sta...There used to be stenciled signs on the subway station walls that said NO SPITTING. I propose having some kind of animal mascot do an ad campaign. We have Smokey the Bear saying "Smokey's friends don't play with matches," and Woodsy Owl saying "Give a hoot, don't pollute." I want a character (a rat?) that says, "Give a shit, don't spit!"<br /><br />If you ever want to read a great detective story, that also tells you a lot about Chinatown's cultural clashes between Hong Kongese, Taiwanese, Cantonese and Fujianese (this was before the Vietnamese arrived), read Ed Lin's "Snakes Don't Run." It follows a Chinese-American detective, native of Chinatown, who is trying to track down vicious human traffickers. A great, fun book.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6841257941461491047.post-78725859884202379422010-02-13T11:50:10.996-05:002010-02-13T11:50:10.996-05:00i don't like networked blogs bc it steals all ...i don't like networked blogs bc it steals all your comments....Matt Brandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07432296291369517481noreply@blogger.com
