Catfight

aos is a country where you don't show your emotions. In fact during the ancient Lang Xang kingdom raising your voice in public was punishable by imprisonment. The highest human quality is to be "jai yen" or cool headed, and this has created a culture that looks down on emotional outbursts.

So imagine our surprise last night when a full fledged chick-fight erupted at the restaurant where we were eating. There was a crash and suddenly we saw our waitress lunging at another waitress, scratching and pulling her hair. Several employees jumped into action and pulled the two apart, but then one of the girls got free and attacked again. After an uncomfortably long time they were separated and stopped fighting.

The fight was weird, but what happened after that was weirder. Our waitress went to the back, put her hair up, and came back out to serve us with a smile on her face. Mirinda wanted to take a picture during the fight, but we thought that would be in bad taste.

I'll bet the whole thing was about a boy...

THE END
