Here we have a lady in Kabul, an aviator in the Netherlands and a bunch of guys and gals cheering them to success for a small delivery into a country still operating on 5000 year old mentalities! Quite amazing when all the crap is put aside!! You just have to love the internet when it works in this simple fashion. Great good luck to both of you in the success of the delivery and enjoyment... Just a drop or two of water is all that is required. ;-) With the success of the delivery and we are alerted to the moment, we should all raise a glass of whichever liquid one wishes to use in salute to the aviator and lady for beating the odds in making a simple request filled. :-) Love it! Dr. ted PS: The liquid in question is purely for medicinal purpose without question. A relaxant of mind and body after a stressful day! ---- Original Message ----- From: "Wendy Thurman" <wendythurman at gmail.com> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> Sent: Wednesday, October 28, 2009 9:06 AM Subject: Re: [Leica] Scotch and water? > We're getting way off topic here but call me in Kabul and I will meet you > at > the USAID terminal at Kabul Airport.
