Happy Birthday Jerry. Be careful with that dirty Martini. If you have any left stash it for another day. We had some Russian Male students at the school I worked at. Adult men and boy did they put a lot away.I did not even want them to go out one night as I felt they would get lost. I worked for the FAA at a management school and often had airplane type from other countries.The Africans bought kids toys at Walmart and tires to take home on the plane,the Russians liquor. I miss that job. Best to you. You are only one day older than yesterday, take heart.jo |
