Chinese Food - What a way to Cook!

My interest in Chinese food started many years ago, when I had my firsl job. I was a young reporter for the Daily Journal in San Francisco. Our office wasn't far from Chinatown. I usually managed to arrange my schedule so that I could go there at least two or three times a week for a good meal.

The first time I ever ate Chinese food I loved it. And since then. it just tastes better and better to me. The first thing I noticed was the fresh taste of the meat and vegetables. When I learned more about the food, I began to understand why it was this unique feature.

About 5000 years ago China lost much of its wood because of over population and poor management of its forests. This loss was very bad for the country, of course, but it turned out be very good for the food.

In order to есonomizе in cooking, they had to use very little wood. So they started cutting their meat and vegetables into small pieces before they put them in the hot oil. That way, the food cooked faster and they saved their fuel. The food prepared in this manner kept its fresh flavour - and it's this flavor that attracts people to the art of Chinese cooking.]

I often wonder if the Chinese appreciated their solution to that ancient energy crisis as much as I do now whenever I eat Chinese food.

Antoine de St. Exuреry, A Daring Pilot.

In 1929, when aviation was still very new, a French pilot novelist Antoine de

St. Exupery took on a job that changed the mail service in South America. He set up an air mail route that joined the cities of South America and cut the delivery time of mail from several month to a few days.

Delivering the mail bv air ways not a new idea in 1929, but it was still a very daring one.

Flying was full of dangers. The aviation technology we have today wasn't invited. Pilots had to use simple instruments such as compasses and road maps. Airplanes had small engines and lost a lot of power when they flew at high altitudes. These planes couldn't fly over heights, so mountains, tall buildings, and even trees were dangerous. Also, these small planes didn't have enough power to fly above storms and bad weather. They had to go through them. Once he was in the storm, the pilot couldn't navigate.

So when he came out of the clouds, he was lost.

The rugged landscape made St. Exupery's job very dangerous. He and his men had to fly over high mountains, deserts, and rain forests. Large areas had almost no people, and there were few roads. So even when a lost pilot landed safely, he had little chance to survive.

St. Exupery, however, welcomed all these difficulties. He believed that people are most alive when they are risking their lives. In 1944 he joined the French air force in North Africa, the pilot in his novel, Night Flight, he disappeared while flying a mission. No trace of him or his plane was ever found.

Willie the Actor

Banks always interested William Francis Sutton. But he never wanted to work in a bank, just wanted to rob them.].

 William Sutton began studying for his career in his early twenties. He practiced until he could open any kind of lock - without a key. He learned all there was to know about burglar, alarms. He developed methods of robbing jewelry stores quietly during the busiest times of day on the busiest streets of a city. He even studied psychology to learn how to keep a bank, full of people quiet and scared. Willie had a lot of friends in the theater in New York, and they gave him ideas for using makeup, costumes, and disguises. That is how he got his nickname - "The Actor". Although Sutton and his partners carried guns during their robberies, they never once fired them. He felt that shooting guns in a robbery showed poor planning. It was for amateurs. Sutton went to prison for bank robbery four times. But he was as good at getting out of prison as he was at getting into banks. He escaped successfully from two of the strongest prisons in the United States. But even for a professional like Willie, crime did not pay. He spent almost half his life behind bars.

Someone one asked, "Willie why do you rob banks?" The answer: "Because that's where the money is."
