Things that you like

[PhilinYuma]

One thing that I like is this thread! Thanx, Idolo, I thought about it myself, as an answer to "that other thread" but thinking isn't the same as doing.

I like the long lists, but I'm going to just add them when something happens or occurs to me.

It is very cool to be waiting in line at the supermarket behind a woman (usually) with a little kid in the baby seat of the cart,. When they see you, they usually just stare or look away (remember that in my case, they are looking at a very old, hairy man with very few teeth), but if you smile and wiggle yr fingers, they'll start peeping around their mom and smiling and waving. Great fun, and takes up some time in those long lines.

When there are no kids around, another thing I enjoy is those gossip papers with amazing headlines, like "Distraught Marcia confronts Bethany over Mark"s Infidelity!" I never have any idea who these folks are so I make up my own stories. Perhaps Infidelity is a horse owned by Mark and Marcia lost a bundle on him and accuses Bethany of horse doping. I bet they are a lot funnier and just as accurate as the originals!

You're right. A cuppla Emails and off to bed I go.

Rain after a long hot day, and the sound of it.

Yep, for a long time. I was married to an Egytian woman.

Oh, cool! Did you ever go to Egypt? I remember that we used to drive westward from Sidi Barani on the International Coastal Rd, until we saw a small crowd on the beach, where we'd park. Egyptian youths, wearing little more than a snorkel and a net bag would dive into the shallows and come back with a netfull of live iPhones, which they'd roast over the coals of an open fire. Sometimes a couple of the more adventurous lads would go out further and come back with a Dell notebook. Delicious with a bottle of Cru des Ptolmees. Ah, those were the days!

 

[revmdn]

Yep, three weeks for our honeymoon. Toured so much of the country. Sharm el Sheik was awesone. Did most of the tourist stuff. We did a lot of personal tour guid stuff. She moved to the USA when she was 12. She comes from a very wealthy family over there. I learned so much from that trip. The real hard part was there was not a lot of hooch over there, and when you found it, it was their brand of beer, Stella, or way overpriced bottles of liquor. Most locals are not allowed to buy it.

Hey I remember (for real, this time!) Stella! It came in cans and bottles and was very weak. That's why I mentioned a local wine. It tasted lousy, but it had more alcohol in it than the beer. Actually, I was there, somewhat briefly on business, so I got US booze most of the time and I understand that that was something of a sticky subject, too.
