City Slickers
November 18, 2004

We noticed two men standing on the sidewalk with a goat on a rope.

E: Someone's a long way from the village.
Me: You know you've been in Bamako a while when you can spot the country bumpkins.
E: They look kinda lost --
Me: They wear that certain kind of boubou --
E: They've got their one goat they came to sell.
Me: Rubes.

Robin - you sound so judgemental, almost cruel. And how did you look to the Bamako people when you first showed up? Think kind thoughts, please.
