The name Yung Dung Po reminds me of a little ditty I learned over there.
It is to the tune of "On the Banks of the Wabash" It goes like this:
"When the ices is on the rice beyond the Yalu,
And the Chinese come a-creeping 'cross the snow.
Don't you look for me GI to be there to help you;
I'll be sitting on my ass in Yung Dong Po..."
