Vinegar Bowls and Massage Chairs

"Grandpa,
you're a
bookbook
right?"
"Why, yes
I am, my
little kala
munggay."
"What are
some things
that books
do that's
funny?"
"Books are
okay with
gathering
around a
bowl of
vinegar and
everybody
dipping their
stuff in it...
sometimes
chicharon
or maybe
sometimes
it's fried
stinky fish.
Books are also like any other Asian...their old guys will go
to a store that sells massage chairs and dominate the chairs.
All the haoles are like, 'Honey, will you look at that bookbook.
He's just sitting in that chair and not letting anybody else
use it. What's up with these bookbooks?'"
"Grandpa, look over there...isn't that Grandpa Ritchie?"
