Hey Boril - You are actually from Bulgaria!! I have been to your town back in 1991 and stayed at the Novotel. I spent almost two weeks touring the country starting first at Sofia. My driver was a famous Bulgarian stage actor and the guide Sergei who speaks perfect English was originally from Ukraine. I had a nice time there - of course all this for free - I had won a lucky draw prize after subscribing to a credit card.

Now the surprise - I have just won again a prize in a contest sponsored by ESPN and our local newspaper in conjunction with Formula One. We will be travelling to old Britain sometime this early 2006 - we will extend our stay as I wish to visit the famous city of York and maybe including Scotland.

Bulgaria is surely a beautiful country with so many things to do and see and very affordable. Your ski resort is wonderful. I will try to make another trip in the future but this time with my wife and children. Cheers from Singapore. :)

That`s good to hear Tedster.

My son is in the british army, and he`s been to Iraq as well(Basra).

Regards Howard :)

... I should have computer access for a while....

Tell them you need it on health grounds. :)

I've worked with you chaps here at our desert training in El Paso. Always a pleasure.
I always found it amusing you took time for tea (even in the middile of a battle!)

One has one's standards to maintain.

Indeed we have mate. Everything stops for tea lol.

Regards Howard :)

When you go there, take a few of those virii and trojans with you, that you so kindly took care of for others. Bury them somewhere in Tikrit, I think they belong there!

Thanks for the assistance in that healthcare department.
Look after yourself and come back whole and alive!

gladly.... although my job in the Army is not computer warfare!

I think the average Iraqi is more worried about getting food on the table and not getting shot in the process than what he has on his fingers and toes (an Iraqi computer.)

What's an insurgant's computer?

(They can count to 21 if they take their shoes and pants off.)

Hey Sarge, thats a good one...Hahaha. :cool: :cool: :cool:

How many Iraqi's does it take to change a lightbulb?

2

One to change the lightbulb and another to flog him in the process.

Please don't turn this into an Iraqi-bashing thread!
They've had enough of that already under S.H.!

Good luck to u Tedster. Hope u r back for ur 7800 GT thats(hopefully) waiting for u! That should be a more thah enough incentive to stay alive, eh?

ah yes.... I'm not bashing Iraqis.... just trying to make humor in a very grave situation!

laughter IS the best medicine!

------------------

will keep ya posted..... I don't move to Ft. Hood until 1 February and deployment to Iraq is yet even further off.....

maybe I'll get lucky and Rumsfeld will cancell it.

Caffiene is an essential part of the daily diet.

As the old saying goes 'If though does not have caffiene on the morrow, than thou's day shall be bathed in sorrow' Finchy, 1786.

Good luck, keep your rifle clean, and make sure you keep safety off!
I hope it's a short trip.

It's always best to find humour in a situation.

if you like caffeine so much - have some jolt cola!
