...Thanks CaptB. Glad to see you. Congratulations on your 15 years of marriage. There are not too many of us left who are still going on steady.  Glad to hear JB and Etna are OK. I think aikrob is OK too.  Those were good ol' days.. I enjoyed them.

Didn't we meet in Moscow once, DP? Or maybe when I was there on my first trip and met with Phil and his then GF, I may have missed you..13 years went by so fast..

WE might  have met, but I can barely remember things from so long ago.

DP-

Just remembered. Yes! You were gracious enough to actually accompany me through the metro maze to get back to my hotel at Tverskaya after we left the bar where I met you, Phil and his girlfriend at that time.

Yeah, that was indeed a long time ago though.

Thank you, we ARE very proud of him. As far as my marriage goes, I have always been very comitted to making it work no matter what. It was not easy with both of us being so hard headed. When we started taking dance classes,  instructors  were rolling on the floor in laughter while we  were trying to figure out who leads in this family in a very colorfull language. And they told us dancing strengthen marriages. They strengthen all right - one fight on a dance floor  and your marriage is safe for a week. My english vocabulary got rather enriched too.

You might not get the analogy or appreciate what I am about to say, but you two remind me of my favorite breed of dog, the English Bull Terrier. Super stubborn, thick headed when they want to be, tough as nails and very, very funny to watch! My favorite Bull Terrier was named 'Ripley'. I named her after the main character, Sigourney Weaver, 'Ellen Ripley' in the movies, Alien and Aliens.

I have a couple of my own chinese shar-peis which fit your description too. Stubborn, have selective hearing of a teenager, but funny and lovable.

Are these yours?

Are these yours?

No, but Ripley looked just like the white one. My hope someday is to get another 'Bully'. Right now I am still looking for a place to put down roots. I am at the moment an airbnb surfer.

They look very lovable. Real personalities with a sense of humor.
