It was very nice of President Bush to take me on a tour of Graceland. However, on the plane ride over from Japan, I read with great interest your “Could You Please Tell Me, What Is This Thing Called Baseball?” and would have preferred to go to an American baseball game (and I can tell you, I sure dropped enough hints).

I so much liked your story on American Baseball, I am going have copies printed and make it mandatory for passengers of our new Himalayan train service to read it (sorry I can’t let them go out on the Internet and look it up for themselves)

President Hu Jintao, China

With Major League Baseball’s All Star Game coming up next week, bone-up and read it for yourself
