I am surprised that no one has used a flame-thrower on this baby, especially when thinking of the impression given by Elton John on his first (and last) visit to the island in 2004.Cornered by the paparazzi at the airport, John blurted out:
“Rude, vile pigs!” a fuming Sir John yelled at the group as he went through customs and immigration. “Do you know what that means? Rude, vile pigs! That’s what all of you are!”
“Why don’t you get out of Taiwan?!” shouted back one of the paparazzi."
“We’d love to get out of Taiwan if it’s full of people like you! Pig! Pig!” John retorted.
Just a big misunderstanding. We think so.Well, welcome to the Year of the Pig, Elton. Have a cup of Taiwanese coffee on the house!
(Do I feel my spider-sense tingling, informing me of imminent lawsuits coming this coffee house's way???)
