Not necessarily true Wiz,  Don't they hit the ball with about every part of the body they can including from the head to the feet.  Why not just call soccer "bodyball"

Sorry Ray

but hands are not permitted to touch the ball.......and 90% is played by feet!

Soccer is American word not English.

...and all UW/RWs I've met are just mad about 'real' football, and have more than a passing familiarity with the great clubs BEFORE they go west.  Even in the Caucasus, I saw kids wearing Chelski shirts this summer.

Is it just possible that EWs choose their destination by football code?

You WISH!!! Russia women are HOT as hell  ! Most have great rears and legs along with Natural breasts and great faces,,,,I think they take great care of their bodies even after they get married,,,,not like U.S. women. My wife will not drink any soda,,wine or Desorona(spelling),,and hot tea 100% of the time or bottled water. Lots of veggies and Salmon(or other fish). Oh BTW she really likes natural Vitamin E

tsg06, You're preaching to the choir here.

Hey Scott,,,can you send items via Fed Ex or UPS??

[ScottinCrimea]

You can, but I have never done it and wouldn't recommend it.  I did a check on transit times and rates sometime back and founnd that a 20lb package would arrive in 5-10 days and would cost $400-$500 for FedEx and over $800 for UPS.  By contrast, the same package sent through the US Postal service would arrive in 6-10 days and cost between $80 and $100 depending on which type of mailing you choose.

What I do is with anything under $50 and that I want to get to Ukraine in a reasonable time I send via USPS and for larger shipments where time isn't such a factor I send by boat using MEEST at http://www.bosmix.com.  It takes about 4-6 weeks using them but it is delivered to the door and their customer service has always been excellent for myself and anyone I know who has used them.

Hope that helps

I was going to see if you can send some cheese and meats (that are in sealed plastic). Was looking for the braided smoked cheese and some meat like peperoni with spices on the outside of it.

[ScottinCrimea]

Okay, I misunderstood.  I thought you werre thinking of sending something TO Ukraine. I'm not in Ukraine right now.  Also, I have never sent anything from Ukraine, so not sure I can help you much.  As far as getting food items into the US from Ukraine, you might have some problems.  While cured cheeses are generally permitted, you aren't going to get meat products through unless you try to sneak them past (not recommended).  Your best bet might be to ask someone who is traveling there in the near future to pack a few items for you and then send them to you when they are back in the US.

I don't know if customs will let meat or cheese into the country because of Mad Cow disease.  They won't let you bring it in by plane, that's for sure.

We brought back a suit case full of food stuff,,,,Cheese,meats(sealed packages),Candy,ABSENTH,Vodka and wines. We bubble packed the bottles and packed clothes around it all to pad it. We ate good for 5-6 months(a taste here and there at dinner or with friends). It all went on check baggage so the x ray was OK(or they didnt x ray it). Is anyone going over there for the holidays??
