So, at this party in Kitts last night
I met this dude, with a pony-tail, glasses, a sport coat and a han kerchief tied around his neck. He introduced himself as "Romando."

Now, because he was chinese I almost said, "Bullshit, that's not your real name." But bit my tongue.
Either way, I just thought that was worth sharing.

1. I know Romando
Well, not really. Was he a new immigrant? They often give themselves an English name, because we can't handle their Chinese ones.

3. Exactly. I met a Vietnamese bartender named ELVIS last year.
I'm pretty sure that's not what his parents called him.

BUUUT, speaking of parents and names:
My sweetie went to school with a guy named Hans Huang,
so a Chinese 'Romando' is surely possible.
