'Body of Canadian businessman found hacked to pieces in Shanghai alley."

Not exactly the way I want my 15 column inches of fame to read. But as
the gangster's fingers approach my ankles, it wasn't looking good.

Three hours after arriving in Shanghai, I'm in a taxi weaving through
the neon labyrinth of China's largest city. The driver has promised to
deliver me to a pub near my hotel where I can take the edge off my
jetlag. Instead, he deposits me in the middle of a dark alley.

I know. He was in a dark alley and he left the cab to investigate?
He deserves to be robbed.
