When I first got to SuZhou, I saw a guy walking a monkey. When I got closer, I realized it had three legs. The guy with the monkey was pan-handling for money. The monkey was for sympathy change... he cut the monkey's leg off. I couldn't believe it. The other thing that really struck me is, besides the monkey man, all of the other people begging are elderly ladies. It is impossible to say no to an elderly lady begging for food. I was carrying a half finished Pepsi one time, and one lady asked me if she could have my Pepsi. Of course I gave it to her. This isn't funny, just worth sharing.
