Some Commie Broke My Jimi
The good news is my Jimi arrived in the mail yesterday. The bad news is the cadre who searched my mail broke the flap of the Jimi by forcing it open. This is one of the downsides of living in an authoritarian state.
When I was a student at the Hopkins Center in Nanjing, an American professor there received a winter coat in the mail. The coat had been sliced to ribbons and when he opened the carefully re-sealed package it “exploded” and he was covered in down feathers. That was a memorable sight.

Wow, I’m just amazed that you are allowed to say “Commie” and live to tell about it.
