A Thing for Asia

This story in the Onion is cracking me up: I Have A Thing For Asia. Not Asians, but Asia the continent.

It began in high school, when I was first exposed to different landforms. It was then that I realized my deep attraction to the remote, demure, but utterly entrancing continent of Asia. In college, I double-majored in geography and earth science, but only so I could get closer to Asia.

At least it isnt a docile continent, like would be expected from an asiaphile instead its "demanding, unpredictable, and shrewish"

A high school friend won a writing contest for this Onion-esque entry:

A Love Letter from North Korea's Kim Jong-il to Condi Rice
