I've heard about side mounted flamethrowers as anti-theft devices in South Africa before. I'm torn between it being extremely cool that the car has flamethrowers or sad because the conditions down their are so bad that they are needed. I understand that you are five times more likely to be murdered or raped in Johannesburg as you are in the worst parts of New York.
Also, there are
alot of people with the Wong surname in the world. It's not like all Wongs are related.

So it's likely that lady who invented this was not realated to Mike. She was the Wong Wong.

Theres a David Wong in my PreCalc class. I suppose Wong is the Chinese (Cantonese, I would guess) version of "Smith" or some other common English surname.

I...want...that...car.
Anyway, my theory is:
There are lots of Wongs all over the world. Each of them share a life energy (I mean, come on, Mike, this guy... the similarities are too much to ignore.)
When Darth Wong kills all the other Wongs, all their life force will be concentrated onto him, making him super smart and super strong.
How do you think he became a Sith Lord?
So in conclusion, if your last name is Wong, you should hide or change it.

He's referring to a Jet Li movie that came out a little while ago. The plot was basically the same as what was described in Raven's post.

Forgive me - I'm not that much into the film genre known as the "Hong Kong Phooey Ass-Kicking Marathon".

Charles Fourie, who invented the blaster, says drivers should put their hands up and then step on the gas.
Seems that they changed the inventer into "Charles Fourie"...someone threatened them?

Well, Raven, Mike will have to go through Chinese aciton star...Mike Wong (who happens to be the brother of the guy from "Vanishing Son") in his pursuit. I told Mike about him. He's done a lot of cool movies.

He's probably French. Michelle is Michael in French (pronounced "me-shell"). So he's a Mike Wong too. Basically, now they have to kill each other, I guess.

The French version of Michael is
Michel.
[Ralph Wiggum] Michelle is a girl's name. [/Ralph Wiggum]

I thought it had the "le" on the end. I know it's pronounced "me-shell" though.

What's interesting is that your article says the device was invented by a Charles Fourie.
