Yeah, was at my folks talking about the story and dad just said--if we'd only known it was an option.


Yep, I was adopted

It's not a clicky, just an underline...and YUP that's the story!

I was writing a check for my son's school this weekend when he asked if I ever thought about doing that return to sender thing...

...I looked at the check and and said..."You mean then or NOW!"

Ah, thanks.
For a minute I thought that at least I'm not the only one who still can't make one of those...

Lol. Now would be a good time to send him back - all education is paid for in Russia, and more than half of the population have university degrees, one of the highest rates of any large country.

Exactly...we have many friends in Moscow, and it's tough if ya wanna do things 'right'.

One guy I know has an advanced degree in Architecture as well as what would equate to a Masters in engineering.

He worked on Russia's moon base design program prior to Glasnost, I saw the designs and WOW!

Now, to stay solvent he does whatever odd jobs he can find, his wife makes ends meet by being a translator for the US consulate so they are okay, without that he told me he'd be in the black market...just like everybody else he use to work with.

Well, geez, I wasn't trying to turn it into a political discussion. I just happen to think that any country that has such a high percentage of post-secondary education has something to be proud of.

not a politcal question..(not my aim anyway) just one of trying to figure out why with such high education, they have such terrible living situations!

It was well expressed. Mrs Twardo must have been helping.

ARGH!
I hate it when I come back to see syntax/typo errors in my post and someone has already quoted them for posterity.
Maybe I could get Mrs Twardo to proofread them for me.
