SR: Hello, this is Shokufeh.
Panicked Person: Yes, hi. You know that mystery illness? I work with someone who flew from the mainland yesterday. But I know that he visited Chinatown while he was in Boston. So we might get sick. Should he be at work?
SR: Hello, this is Shokufeh.
PP: I'm planning a trip at the end of the year. But I'm concerned about being on the plane with other people. Do you know where I can buy a respirator with bells and whistles?
SR: Hello, this is Shokufeh.
PP: Hi. Um... I was wondering... you know how there's a lot of Asians here in Hawaii? Well, I take the bus to work. Do you think I have SARS now?
Okay... best one yet!
SR: Hello, this is Shokufeh.
PP: I just realized that most of things I buy are made in China. What if someone who had SARS made my stuff, and coughed on it? I'm especially concerned because I just gave a bunch of presents to people. What if they get sick too, and spread it to their family and friends?!
Delara and I both loved this. :)
