"When the Anglos introduced themselves as so and so Lee as well, the Chinese got all huffy, because they thought that they were being mocked."
LOL. Ironically, where I live in the South, Lee is a pretty common surname for Anglos. More Anglo Lees than Chinese, I'd bet. I'm betting that's not the case in, say, California. What I didn't get a chance to tell MM was that I'm sure these surname things are pretty regional. Lots of German-type surnames down here as well.
A SOUTHERNER surnamed Lee? I never heard of something so odd!
