<LST: The opportunity for the touchdown celebration>
We have to remember these are very egotistical sport people. They make a lot of
money. They like thing on TV. So when they make a touchdown, they like
touchdown celebrations are very unusual and very funny sometimes.
American football players, they get in the end zone. They score, they might jump
around, they might dance and they might throw the ball somewhere. Sometimes
these are a little bit offensive if so it’s a penalty.
<John’s recap>
Just a few weeks ago, Hong Gil-dong and I were on an airplane together. We
were flying to Jakarta to open up a new ‘번데기’ restaurant.
And our plan was to make money and do some good business. He said hey,
we’re going to pull down some serious cash in this business. We’ve got to take it
seriously.
Our plane is going to touch down in just a few minutes and you’re still eating
your lunch. What are you doing? So Gil-dong said oh, I’m sorry and you wash
down this chicken or beef
With this clean water and we can get back to business hopefully on this trip to
pull down some good money so I will see how business goes.
