Merciless Ming

Last night I had a dream that Ming-Dynasty China (1400-1600 AD or so) was taking over the US. There were all these little hints that nobody else seemed to notice: a piece of pottery, horse tracks, etc. I was the only one in the country who realized that Ming China was coming from the past and preparing for a full-scale invasion of the country. The government only realized it when I showed them a piece of graffiti that clearly said "MING CHINA." By then, it might have been too late. The Ming men had adapted our technology to their knowledge of horseback riding, and they were poised to take us over. I woke up before I found out what happened.

My exam is on my mind. (In the spirit of full disclosure, however, I must say I gorged on Chinese food last night, too.) Therefore, I will be blogging about China again. Please don't complain, Lonely Readers of Hatandcoat, for, after all, nothing else has been going on here in this blog for over a week.
