If You Can't Stand the Heat (2 cents)

I go into Jyati Indian restaurant in Adams Morgan to pick up my carryout dinner. It's a hot,muggy Washington evening. One of the regular waiters says to me: This heat is awful, just awful.

Where are you from, I ask? Bangladesh, he says.

Then aren't you used to this?

Why do you think I left Bangladesh?
