Iiiiiii - a typo in my previous post
That's one that can't remain uncorrected. It's of course my friends Jean and Steve, not my fiends. Funny what difference one letter can make, isn't it?

Last trip in Turkey
Few people are now left here in our complex, but luckily my fiends Jean and Steve who live here year around are among them. There isn't that much time left before I go home to Miami so we decided to go and visit Ephesus on Wednesday. They have never been but I have. Here are two pictures from my...

It shows that ideas, stories, pictures, even jokes, reach the eyes and minds of readers and ignite a little flame in their imagination to take matters further and add something of their own.

And Cleo screams some more..
To get into the spirit of things, I have painted myself Egyptian eyes this morning. (No, I won't post a picture). Let's see if it helps. Where were we? "Never mind the stupid rod," Cleo hissed.

And Cleopatra screamed...

What surprises me though is that quite a few of them play games on the internet, most of which I have never heard of leave alone tried out. My home page is full of requests to assist in this that...

How lazy can a person get???
Vogue, get your act together and mooooove! Naaah, it's much nicer to be lazy. Maybe, but... But nothing! I'm doing something, i'm actually writing on blogit, so stop nagging me. Great dialogue with myself, don't you think? It's 1 pm in Turkey. As usual I woke up at 6am and since then, I've brushed...
