Entry 11
The first part of Terrorism and B.B.Q as the name was translated was hilarious. Through an entirely understandable series of events, a man becomes a terrorist holding a government building hostage. The bureaucracy of the government building is reminiscent of the worst nightmares of the DMV combined with the IRS. There seemed to be nothing remotely resembling logic to the running of the building. To get permission for his children to change schools, the main character spent a week or so trying to find out first who he had to see, then waiting for that man to return from his trip, and finally waiting for the man to return from the bathroom. The ridiculousness of the situation knows no bounds. Unfortunately, the main character eventually looses his temper and guards are called to remove him from the building. In an attempt to plead his case, the main character ends up in something of a spinning wrestling match with the guards resulting in him holding one of the guard's guns. Even more unusually, the guards were so terrified that they ran rather than trying to diffuse the situation.
