you and Jeanette are looking very good, nose hair or no ;-D

you might want to point out (as tactfully as possible) to Lanette, or whomever puts together that newsletter, that simply defining an image as 300x225 pixels doesn't actually resize it, and it takes a long damn time to load. the accepted way of doing it is to use any convenient graphics program to create a small copy of the photo to use as a "thumbnail", and make that a link to the larger image with a "click on picture to enlarge" function. (this is a newbie error that i hoped had disappeared with the demise of FrontPage.)

nothing much is new with me. the most exciting thing that's happened to me lately is getting a new pair of flip-flops.

I'm soprry, but I cannot imagine what you hoped to achieve by answering a two year old LiveJournal posting of mine with a YouTube video in a language I don't understand either written or spoken, and produced with a video camera that left great portions of the text unreadable even to a person who understands the language. YouTube may seem to you to be a great way to spread any message at all widely across the world, but the message your video contained was not such a message that people would spread voluntarily. I was able to understand from the English words contained in your message that you have some kind of problem with the US CIA. Believe me, we in the US are well informed in the general case about such CIA atrocities done on our behalf, and they are too many for us to focus our attention on any one of them ( ... )
