It's true.

His name is used to frighten Chinese Muslim children who misbehave

Linky…

Now you know why China's muslims don't act up.

That link is kind of interesting given the time line for General Tso and Hemingway's lifespan(1899-1961).

I thought General Tsao was from The Three Kingdoms.  The saying was, "Mention Tsao Tsao, Tsao Tsao will appear."  It was somewhat like the threat the Victorian women would make to children, "Behave yourself or Boney (Bonaparte) will get you."

Had some today at the Mongolian Grill but the sauce wasn't hot enough.

There was however a interesting asian girl who refilled our drinks and was busing tables in the area where we sat and kept giving me the eye, and when she would see me checking her out would smile alot and hold eye contact.

You know nothing serious though.

Thing is though my wife who had her back turned to ole girl finally looked up at me when she finished her egg drop soup and told me I had a gob of lo mein noodles on the front of my shirt.

Was taking them off my shirt with my hand when I looked up at my little lotus blossom and she and one of her co-workers who were standing a few feet away laughing at me and the one that I thought was pretty fine had to cover her mouth with her hand because she had the most God-awful set of buck teeth you could ever imagine !

So much for feeling like your young and studley again.

Uhh...I'm not too certain about this entry's historical veracity...


Zuǒ Zōngtáng (左宗棠) (November 10, 1812-September 5, 1885), spelled Tso Tsung-t'ang in Wade-Giles and known simply as General Tso or General Tsuo to Westerners

...


Early career

Zuo's career got an inauspicious start when as a young man he flunked the official court exams seven times (~1822-1825).

All but giving up on public life, Zuo returned to his home by the River Hsiang in Hunan and resigned himself to a quiet life farming silkworms, reading Hemingway novels, and tea.



...considering Ernest Hemingway wasn't born until 1899--four years after the General's death.  Perhaps he is the real inventor of the Doc's time machine/DeLorean.

EDIT: grammar.
