three musketeer

Aaron stayed with us for two weeks as aunt went back to China for grandpa's funeral. My trip had to be delayed for getting my passport and visa. Houston Chinese embassy is still closed as Ike cut off the electricity supply.

An interesting oberservation of dad. When George (a neighbor boy at Aaron's age) is around, Ray is the guy left out by Aaron and tries his best to join in. When Aaron, Ray and Tony are together, Tony is the one blocked out of the built little castle imagined as an enemy, even though Tony is completely capable of crawling in through the little gate(actually it is easier for Tony to get in). When Aaron is not around, two brothers play well as the best buddies. It is always true that the powerful ones get together. They like to deal with each other and know how to deal with each other. Nations are like kids in this way. You rarely see United States and Fiji get into the same news except golf. Political economy explains this purely by economic interests. Is it true that people show ceratin characteristics both as a group and as an individual other than economic interest?

OK, dad will let Tony or Ray figure this out.
