Now, for a moment of levity --
In 8 years, there will be schools named after Barack Obama! There will be "Barack H. Obama Elementary School" or "OHS - Obama High School".
Even more amusing is, what would the school mascot be for OHS? The mascot for every single John F. Kennedy High School that the Korean knows of is "Fighting Irish", a decidedly racial mascot. So what about Barack Obama High School? "Black Knights"? "Hapa Warriors"? Suggestions are welcome!
Got a question or a comment for the Korean? Email away at askakorean@hotmail.com.
